# Smart controller without machines

{% hint style="info" %}
This solution is compatible with the **PULSE protocol** only.
{% endhint %}

Sometimes our goal involves processing a payment and displaying a notification on the screen to confirm that a payment has been completed. In such cases, we connect the payment system to the controller plugged into a power socket.

This approach was used in an amusement park for a Ferris wheel. We processed the payment, and once the administrator confirmed that the payment was successful, the client was granted access to the attraction.

There are various usage scenarios for this system. Some examples we have encountered include:

1. Ferris wheel
2. Cinema entrance
3. Shooting gallery
4. Shower stall at a gas station

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.smvend.io/equipment-installation/controllers/smart-controller-without-machines.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
