Hardware introduction

1.Vehicle mounted fare collection device CL1306

This product has got anti-explosion certificate, used on public bus, security
comes first, the first bus card reader has got this certificate in China.

You can also call it bus validator, it is installed on bus, do not need a conductor
to hold it.

If the fare is fixed, for example the whole journey takes 2 USD, you sent on
the software “fixed usage mode” “price 2 yuan”, download the parameter to the
device, when passenger get on the bus, tap the card, 2 USD is deducted.

If the fare is flexible, different stops/distance charge different money, we call

this zonal fare usage, there are two options

1. You can install one device at the front/entry door, when passenger get on,
tap the card, the maximum fare for the whole distance will be deducted, for
example 10 USD, when passenger get off at the rear/exit door, he tap the card
on another device, the actual fare will be calculated and get from the fare table
you set in the management software, for example he just need to pay 3 USD

3
for the distance he takes, then the extra 7 USD will be refunded to his card. In
this way, no one will escape ticketing.

Demo case

Cable connection is a little complex and not easy to take around. For better
presentation, we have designed a demo case for zonal fare. Open the case
and power on, very convenient.

4
Fare table
You can set the price, form which stop to which stop, how much should be
deducted.

5
These two readers will be connected by a GPS bus announcer which collects
the longitude and latitude of each bus stops in advance, when the bus arrive
the stop, the GPS stop announcer will automatically announce the station
name to remind passengers to get off at the right station. The GPS bus
announce can “tell” the card reader which station the passenger gets on and
which station he gets off, in this way, correct fare can be get from the fare
table.

.
PS: If the bus only has one door, One reader can also realize zone fare,
passenger get on and get off tap the same reader, with the help of GPS bus
announcer, it can also realize zonal fare like two readers above.

2. If you think install two device spend to much, and you do not need the GPS
bus announcer. you can only install one device at the front door near the driver.
For route do not have too many passengers, a driver alone can manager the
fare collection. The driver can input the amount a passenger need to pay, for
example, one passenger need to pay 2 USD, he input 2 through the keyboard,
next passenger need to pay 3 USD, he input 3 through the keyboard.

Function of key board include:

F1 key: Flexible fare, you can input a fare and then passenger tap card
F2 key: Check card balance
F3 key: Change terminal time
F4 key: Switch between upward line and downward line, mean direction
A---B and direction B---A
F5 key: Back to last/previous station
F6key: Switch to next station, for zonal fare

Software introduction

The vehicle mounted fare collection device and the handheld fare collection
device is managed by the same software, in your project, you can choose one
of these two device or both device.

Main functions

All the data of each top up site can be real time transmitted to sever computer
database in your central office. You can give each site limited rights, for
example the quantity of card it can issue, the total amount it can top up, limited
reports it can check etc. The sever computer user the main account, the top up
