Software & IoT

Machine control, connectivity and connected management, from PLC and HMI software to cloud reporting, remote monitoring and apps. Engineered in-house, connected by design: software, control and management, all developed by WashCore.

Engineered in-house, connected by design

The WashCore ecosystem spans four connected layers, customer & payment (pay stations, plate recognition, customer and gift-card apps), the wash products themselves, control & shared data (a live gateway and cloud database), and monitoring & management (the online dashboard and management app). Equipment communicates with local controllers and, where configured, connects securely through an IoT gateway to cloud services. Control flows down; operational data flows up.

Local machine control and safe operation are designed to continue without a continuous internet connection. Cloud features apply where the system is configured and connected.

Reliable locally, connected when configured

Local machine control and safe operation are designed not to depend on continuous internet connectivity. Remote features apply across connected sites.

Local machine control

PLC and HMI control at the machine, independent of the cloud.

Secure connectivity

Connection through an IoT gateway where configured.

Remote operation

Supported remote functions and settings where enabled.

Store & forward

Buffering of records during connectivity interruptions.

Real-time visibility across every site

Connected equipment records what it does and sends it to the WashCore cloud, turning sales, washes, dosing, water, electricity, runtime, faults and events into live reporting, dashboards and alerts.

WashCore Cloud Connection

Cloud data logging

Securely record transactions and system activity.

Live reporting

View performance, trends and usage in real time.

Remote monitoring

Check site status from anywhere.

Instant alerts

Notifications for faults or events, payment device offline, high-pressure fault, door open, low chemical level.

Multi-site management

Monitor all your locations in one place.

Secure access

Role-based access for operators and managers.

A live gateway reads equipment data and logs time-stamped events; the cloud database is one shared source of data across your software and sites, sales & invoices, machine history & alarms, members & credit, and site & user records. A single dashboard brings it together, with per-site status and a recent-events log. Payment data is handled as authorised transaction metadata, no card credentials stored or exposed.

From one device to many sites

Review multiple sites, understand equipment availability, inspect historical events and manage supported settings across your sites.

Site & equipment status

Availability and condition across connected sites.

Historical events

Event histories and operating statistics.

Multi-site access

Centralised visibility across locations.

Maintenance insight

Trends and indicators to support maintenance.
