EPP 5.0 - clearance unit

The EPP 5.0x passenger check-in unit is a general passenger check-in terminal (validator on the fly) or customer check-in unit and can also be used in other applications involving payment or validation (not only in transport). Thanks to the control via USB connection (min. USB 2.0), it can be connected to any computer - our EPC 4.0A, EPC 4.0B, EPC 4.0C and EPC 5.0 units or directly to a PC or other device with USB interface.

Using the EPP 5.0A unit

TheEPP 5.0x passenger check-in unit is a general passenger check-in terminal (validator on the fly) or customer check-in unit and can also be used in other applications involving payment or validation (not only in transport). Thanks to the control via USB connection (min. USB 2.0), it can be connected to any computer - our EPC 4.0A, EPC 4.0B, EPC 4.0C and EPC 5.  0 units or directly to a PC or other device with USB interface. The composition of the unit can be chosen by the customer - from a simple printer on thermal paper EPP 5.0 A through the possibility of a payment terminal to a complex system including check-in and even with a 1D (barcode) or 2D (QR code) reader and a customer display - i.e. EPP 5.0A LQB. The code reader then also allows the collection of images from the camera chip. The bank card reader of the EPP 5.0A B unit (B for bank card) is certified for the use of contactless bank payments together with the EPIS 5.0A software.

Basic parameters

The EPP 5.0A clearance unit includes in the mechanical set:

Thermal ticket printer

  • The printer lifetime is 150 million pulses,
  • print head life is 150 km,
  • lifetime of the ticket cutter is 1.5 million cuts,
  • paper roll up to 80 mm.

Bank card reader

The bank card reader is according to ISO 14443A standard with the ability to detect non-bank cards (Mifare and Mifare Desfire) - the type depends on the customer's requirements (different types can be supplied) with direct connection to the PP and to the acquirer's clearing centre. The reader allows to manage tokens for further processing in BOS or clearing centres.
