Attendant Menu

Lots of washers have a new feature called an "Attendant Feature" that allows a staff member some control over a washer so in case of emergencies or job duties they can operate a washer without access to the programming or money.
How does the Maytag MYR attendant menu work?

Moving Blue Keys Caution

 

Have you ever moved a PayRange Blue Key from one machine to another and went to test it and it didn't work?

For example you have a broken down machine and you are moving the device to a new machine.

Follow these steps otherwise you might have the device appear to work because it takes money off of your account but the washer doesn't start:

1. have power off to the new washer when you install the device

2. turn power on and edit the device for price, time, location, etc.

3. turn power back off

4. leave power off for 30 seconds

5. restore power and test

If money is still being subtracted from your account but the machine isn't starting then edit the device in your account by going to the advanced settings and making sure the pulse rates for all three fields are the same  as a machine that is working.

Sometime the act of moving the devices and plugging it into a different machine will tweak those numbers so they don't match the other working machines.

If it is a brand new type of machine that you don't have any others like it, make sure the pulse rate matches the pulse rate listed in your install guide.

Everet's June 2026 Newsletter

 

Everet's June 2026 Laundry Newsletter Thanks for Making the Open House & Service School a Success

Thank you to everyone that attended the Spring Open House and Service School in May. We had 55 affirmative RSVPs and 43 attended at some point during the morning and afternoon sessions. The Qdoba lunch was enjoyed by almost all and it was interesting how many people said they have never had Qdoba before. We gave away several gift certificates, a large screen TV, and a camera drone. Thanks to Michael, Tony, and Jason from Alliance for attending and putting on presentations. I also want to thank Tom Kozlik from Standard Changers for his presentations. We also had Stacy Cooper and Larry Hauser from KioSoft/PayRange and Mark Cummings from Laundroworks for their presentations on cashless payment systems.  I was told by many that I did a good job as MC and people wanted to have a list of my jokes that I told in between the presentations. Maybe that will be a future blog article...
