Ticket Reader
with real time clock and magnetic encoding
Order number: TL-31 The Ticket Reader TL 31 consists of the
multi-functional MODPARK ticket modules integrated into a housing, which is well suited for passenger car access control applications like car park sys-tems.
The unit reads magnetically encoded tickets, reads long term parker cards and other special tickets. The unit can be adapted to a wide variety of pe-ripheral signals on site. It can drive virtually all barriers on the market. A passage can be con-trolled automatically, manually or centrally. Anti-passback, illegal backout and barrier condition monitoring are possible with the unit.
In a normal operation an induction loop in the driveway indicates via a vehicle detector the ap-proach of a vehicle. This enables the unit. An in-serted ticket or magnetic card will be read and evaluated.
For a valid ticket, the passage will be set free. A valid long term parker card will be handed back. When the card is removed, the passage is set free. After the passage, the reading unit starts a new cycle.
If a ticket or a card is invalid, the reason is indi-cated on the display and the ticket or card is handed back.
The control can be with anti-passback. The valid-ity is limited by an expiry date, several timezones, access level and parking area. All movements are reported to a central computer.
