DESIGN REQUIREMENTS U.K.

1. The taximeter shall be designed to calculate the distance and to measure the duration of a trip. U.K.

2. The taximeter shall be designed to calculate and display the fare, incrementing in steps equal to the resolution fixed by the Member State in the operation position ‘Hired’. The taximeter shall also be designed to display the final value for the trip in the operating position ‘Stopped’. U.K.

3. A taximeter shall be able to apply the normal calculation modes S and D. It shall be possible to choose between these calculation modes by a secured setting. U.K.

4. A taximeter shall be able to supply the following data through an appropriate secured interface(s): U.K.

• operation position: ‘For Hire’, ‘Hired’ or ‘Stopped’;

• totaliser data according to point 15.1;

• fare information for a trip: total charged, fare, calculation of the fare, supplement charge, date, start time, finish time, distance travelled;

• tariff(s) information: parameters of tariff(s).
