1.3.2. How does SMS2 Work for You?
SMS2 is the central management tool used to control your entire
Greenwald Intellicard Smart Card System. From one PC, you can quickly
and easily customize the functions and operations of each machine used
in the system.
Customization includes pricing, time and cycle function specifications for
laundry machines, as well as location restrictions. This means that
changing the vend cost for a washer or deciding to run specials at certain
times of the day is now just a few key strokes away. Specific location
pricing and restricting the use of cards to only certain locations is also
accomplished in the SMS2 software.
