A control unit, containing switches, keys, or similar elements, used to control the operation of a dispenser or other device at a gasoline dispensing facility.
In a self-service gasoline station, the console is located inside the station where it is operated by an attendant. By punching a key on the console, for example, the attendant may “enable” the pumping unit that serves the dispenser from which a motorist is preparing to fuel a vehicle.
