Ticket validators
Ticket validators are microcontroller-based user interface devices. All different versions of validators mount on one common mounting base, that allows easy replacement. The validators are connected via CAN-bus to ticketing controller device, that holds the database and performs the actual ticket validation operations.
| Power | 9-30V, overvoltage and reverse polarity protected |
|---|---|
| LCD | 240×64 FSTN graphical |
| RFID | ISO14443A/B, Mifare, ISO18092, EMV Contactless |
| Barcode | 1D/2D barcode reader with illumination |
| Indication | 4x RGB LEDs |
| User interface | 4x touch sensitive buttons, buzzer |
| SAM sockets | up to 4 |
Ticketing controllers
Ticketing controllers connect to validators and perform the ticketing operations. The ticketing controller is communicating with backend servers over 3G network; the ticketing data is periodically synchronized in both directions.
| Power | 9-30V, overvoltage and reverse polarity protected |
|---|---|
| CPU | iMX6Q/D |
| Communication | GSM/3G/4G module with GPS |
| OS | Linux or Android |
| Interfaces | CAN, RS232, RS485, GPIO, Ethernet |
| USB | 2x host (1 with charging), 1x device port |
| Audio | 2ch out/in |
USB communication hubs
USB communication HUBs are used in smaller installations to connect Android mobile devices to bus systems.
| Power | 9-30V, overvoltage and reverse polarity protected |
|---|---|
| Modem | GSM/3G/4G module with GPS |
| Interfaces | CAN, RS232, RS485, GPIO, USB, Ethernet |
| Audio | 2ch out/in |
Ticket inspection device
The ticket inspection device is a rugged handheld device with NFC reader, 2D barcode scanner and ISO7816 smart card (Estonian ID-card) readers. It is running Linux OS. The device uses NFC to synchronize with bus ticket database via ticket validator on the bus.
