∴ COMPREHENSIVE COMMUNICATION OPTIONS:

The Citea is equipped with a USB, LAN and serial port as standard. The communication via GSM/GPRS/3G modem or LAN makes it possible to establish a connection with the CityLine back office system to perform remote machine di¬agnostics and programming. This means that service calls can be kept to a minimum and trips to empty the machine of money and change paper rolls can be optimally coordinated.

Alarm signals are registered and immediately relayed to CityLine if any unauthorised attempt is made to access the machine or safe.

∴FLEXIBLE PAYMENT METHODS:

The Citea can be completely tailored to suit any parking situation: it allows coin payments, accept banknotes, payments by credit card or smart card. Even payments using state-of-the-art contact-less payment methods such as Mifare cards or high-performance NFC smartphones are possible. If secure card payments with PIN entry are required in accordance with EMV regulations, the Citea can be fitted with a card reader and PIN pad terminal.

Card payment authorisation is made online and is encrypted.
