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.

European Foreword
This document (prEN 12414:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 226 “Road
equipment”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 12414:1999.
The significant technical changes incorporated in this revision are:
— new requirements depending on the different modes of operation (Pay and Display, Pay and Go, Pay
on Departure) which justify the change in the title and the scope of this standard where “pay and
display ticket machine” has been replaced by “parking terminal”;
— verification method described for each of the requirements in annex, which justify the change in the
title and scope where “test methods” has been added;
— accessibility requirements taking into account new EN 301549:2014;
— 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
central system (central system requirement being out of the scope of this standard);
— requirements for minimum information to be exchanged with the central system for connected
terminals;
— requirements for payment means taking into account banknotes and new electronic means of
payment;
— energy autonomy requirement for terminal powered by mains supply or solar energy or combination
of solar energy and non-rechargeable battery, with detailed test procedure in annex;
— protection against theft or burglary with detailed test procedure in annex and introduction of
security classes P0 to P4, with a minimum of P0 required;
— update of operation and management requirements;
— update of normative references.

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 central 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.
