scope where “test methods” has been added;
— accessibility requirements taking into account new EN 301549:2018;
— requirement for user interface taking into account new technologies (display, keyboards, touch
screen…);
— requirements and definition of categories of terminals depending on the level of connectivity with a
centralised system (centralised system requirement being out of the scope of this standard);

Introduction
This document is a revision of the EN 12414 issued in 1999. This is not a harmonized standard. This
document has been written for those called upon to manufacture, operate, maintain and use a parking
terminal with the aim of providing requirements and test methods, especially for parking terminals in
addition to the applicable European Directives.
This document takes the different modes of operation of parking terminal into account:
— pay and display mode;
— pay and go mode;
— pay on departure mode;
and the different configurations of:
— user interface;
— means of payment;
— power supply;
— connectivity;
— protection against theft or burglary;
in order to provide measurable minimum requirements and associated test methods to standardize and
qualify:
— ease of use;
— ease of operation;
— accessibility;
— security;
— energy autonomy;
— resistance to environment;
— protection against theft or burglary.
A terminal conformity to this document is understood as a conformity to all minimum requirements
applicable to the mode and configuration of the said terminal. This standard is for the terminal only, it
does not cover the centralised system. Regarding protection against theft or burglary, conformity to the
minimum requirement is reached with class P0, but in addition, classes P1-P4 have been defined to allow
terminal suppliers to verify the effectiveness of additional measures to increase the protection against
theft or burglary above P0.
1 Scope

terminals. It applies to unattended terminals used to obtain the right to park for visual and/or electronic
control of multiple road vehicles, with payment where applicable.

For parking terminals connected to centralised system, this document covers the minimum information
to be exchanged with a centralised system. It does not define a standard protocol between parking
terminals and centralised systems. It does not define the centralised system.
This document does not cover pay-on-foot terminals.

4 Functional requirements
4.1 Modes of operation
4.1.1 General
The modes of operation describe how the right to park is provided to end-users, then inspected by
enforcement personnel.
Three modes of operation are defined in this document:
a) the Pay and Display mode (with ticket);
b) the Pay and Go mode (without ticket);
c) the Pay on Departure (with or without ticket).
Any parking terminal shall comply with one or more modes.
4.1.2 Pay and Display mode (with ticket)
4.1.2.1 General
In this mode, a ticket is printed by the parking terminal and is to be displayed in the vehicle to allow visual
inspection by the enforcement agent. This ticket may be also used as a receipt by the end-user.
For a cash only offline transaction, a ticket with minimum printed information as detailed in 4.1.2.2, shall
be issued within four seconds after confirmation of the transaction.
For pay and display, a printer shall be installed to deliver tickets and shall respect the requirements
defined in 4.2.2.
4.1.2.2 Printed information (intended for enforcement)
This ticket shall as a minimum contain the following information on the same side of the ticket:
— amount paid (if applicable);
— parking expiry time and date (at least the month, day, hours and minutes);
— location of the parking terminal (identifier or address).
Where applicable, it shall be possible to add the following information:
— tariff category;
— unique transaction identifier;
— licence plate number;
— space number;
— issuing date and time;
— tax mandatory information;
— parking authority or operator reference.
4.1.3 Pay and Go mode (without ticket)
4.1.3.1 General
In this mode, the end-user does not need to display a ticket in a vehicle. Inspections are based on
information that allows for identification either by the parking space or by the licence plate.
To obtain the right to park, the identification data has to be entered by the end-user into the terminal to
be recorded locally or in a centralised system.
The parking terminal shall offer the end-user the capability to correct and confirm the identification data
manually entered before payment.
The terminal shall always be able to deliver a receipt:
— by a printer that shall respect the requirements defined in 4.1.3.3 and 4.2.2
or,
— if applicable, digitally transferred to the end-user when allowed by local legislation, banks standards
and card issuers and shall respect the requirements defined in 4.1.3.3.
4.1.3.2 Storage of transaction data (intended for enforcement)
4.1.3.2.1 General
At least one of the means of storage described in 4.1.3.2.3 and 4.1.3.2.4 shall be used.
4.1.3.2.2 Stored information
Transactions shall be stored with the following information:
— parking expiry time and date (at least the month, day, hours and minutes);
— licence plate number or parking space number;
— amount paid (if applicable);
— location of the parking terminal (identifier or address);
Where applicable, it shall be possible to add the following information:
— tariff category;
— unique transaction identifier;
— date and time of issue.
4.1.3.2.3 Local storage of transaction
For terminals belonging to Category A (as defined in 4.3.2), when the transaction is confirmed by the end-
user, the information defined in 4.1.3.2.2 shall be saved in the local memory of the parking terminal for
local inspection by enforcement agent. The terminal shall have the capacity to store a minimum of 100
active transactions (currently valid parking rights) for enforcement purpose. If the maximum transaction
capacity is reached the terminal shall block next transactions.
4.1.3.2.4 Online storage of transaction
For terminals belonging of Category B (as defined in 4.3.3), transactions completed by the end-users shall
be transmitted to a centralised system to enable inspection by enforcement agent. If online transmission
is not possible the terminal shall offer one of the two following possibilities:
— the transaction shall be blocked, or
— the transactions shall be allowed and stored locally until transmission to the centralised system.
4.1.3.3 Receipt
In case of a ticketless transaction, an offer shall be made to the end-user to obtain a receipt or it shall be
automatically issued. An offer made at the end of the transaction shall remain for at least five seconds.
The minimum information contained on the receipt shall be the following:
— amount paid (if applicable);
— parking expiry time and date (at least the month, day, hours and minutes);
— the information that makes it possible to identify the vehicle either the licence plate or parking space
number;
— location of the parking terminal (identifier or address).
Where applicable, it shall be possible to add the following information:
— tariff category;
— unique transaction identifier;
— date and time of issue;
— tax mandatory information;
— parking authority or operator reference;
— licence plate number;
— space number.
4.1.4 Pay on departure
4.1.4.1 General

To obtain the right to park, the end-user needs to start the parking session at arrival. The parking session
is either stopped by the user when departing or automatically by the system when reaching user selected
or maximum defined parking end time.
Pay on departure mode can be managed with or without ticket.
The terminal shall always be able to deliver a receipt:
— by a printer that shall respect the requirements defined in 4.1.4.3.2 and 4.2.2,
or
— if applicable, digitally transferred to the end-user when allowed by local legislations, banks standards
and card issuers and shall respect the requirements defined in 4.1.4.3.2.
4.1.4.2 Transaction data
4.1.4.2.1 Parking session start data
Parking session start data shall contain the following information:
— licence plate number and/or space number and/or unique identifier;
— parking start time (at least the month, day, hours and minutes);

the end-user to be displayed in the vehicle for online inspection for enforcement.
4.1.4.3.2 Parking session ends
The end-user can end the parking session before the selected or the default maximum parking end time
is reached. The data specified in 4.1.4.2.2 shall be transmitted to a centralised system.
4.1.4.4 Receipt
