The section charge card machine from Cardlan is aimed at the present some bus enterprise inconvenient one ticket system charge a kind of charge model that USES. How does the bus section card machine realize section charge? After the passengers on the bus card, card record card the vehicle information, site number, credit card information such as time, full fare, brush again as he got off the bus card. According to the records the passengers up and down the station within the dot the fare calculation to deal with, and to deduct the card.


There are three main ways to realize piecewise billing
 

1. Using small keyboard, vehicle-mounted closed to pick up fares before onboard machine, using the line parameter fare fare CARDS for on-board machine external keyboard definition, sets the key to two votes, three votes... The ticket price. In actual use, the operator (conductor) will press the corresponding key according to the passenger's due fare, and then let the passenger swipe the card. We can use the accumulative method or the equivalent incremental decline method. In this way, the car is fixed and the conductor is needed.

2. Using handheld IC card charging machine, ticket can be used by key presses the dot on the station and get off site number calculation, through different, the actual input button to select different fare fare such as a variety of ways. When used, the operator (conductor) will press the corresponding key according to the actual situation of the passenger, then put the passenger card in the card swipe area of the charging machine, and then press the confirmation button to deduct the payment. This allows the conductor to charge a mobile fee.

3. Swipe the card twice to get on and off the bus, which does not require manual setting of the ticket price. The on-board machine will automatically calculate the ticket price and deal with the amount in the card according to the pre-set ticket price list.

GPS can also be used to determine the location of the vehicle's site.
