W A S H P A Y 1 Introduction The WashPay Site Management System is a highly configurable management system for multi-bay self-serve carwashes. The WashPay system consists of the following components: • WashPay-equipped meter box: Meter boxes equipped for Washpay will use a Unitec timer module and include a waterproof, swipe-style card reader. • Sierra Site Controller: The Site Controller should be installed in an office type area. The area should be dry and located away from the car wash chemicals.

Additional outlets will be required if the optional Network Kit and LCD monitor are purchased. A CAT5E cable will be needed to connect the Site Controller to the router. Receipt Printer – The Receipt Printer will require a 115VAC outlet. A CAT5E cable will need to run between the Receipt Printer and the 16-port switch (optional).
