Car wash with Commodore SX-64, part 1

This car wash is controlled with a Commodore SX-64. The car wash is an product of Edutec bv in the Netherlands. Normally the car wash is run with a Moeller Easy PLC or an Siemens LOGO! PLC.
The horizontal brush has an height detection an can follow the contours of the car.

The Commodore SX-64 is connected with an home build interface. It uses the user-port to control 6 relays and it uses joystick port 1 to receive 5 inputs. The program is written in BASIC.

Nice simulation model. I wonder why nowhere is mentioned that fischertechnik building blocks were used for making this car wash :)

@realschnaggels

Yes, it is almost all Fischer Technik. Only a few things come from other suppliers, sensor, brushes and a couple of relais.
