User of the “Autoconductor” system can on his own will determine the types of contactless cards which POS-terminal will work with, and also can determine the algorithms of their functioning. For instance, during the process of reading a card POS-terminal might “decide” to print a preferential ticket (with discount) or issue a ticket of zero price. The information processed by POS-terminal is instantly sent to the server and becomes available to a system’s user instantly.
A number of preference categories isn’t limited and users, when needed, can change types of preferences. An alternative of POS-terminal for accounting of preference passenger categories can be found in a special contactless reader. Contactless readers are connected via RS-232 interface to a managing device which is to be placed in bus.
