The Parking Rights Service Provider DLL (PRSP) is the integration layer between the CWT terminal and the services provided by Flowbird StreetSmart (FS) concept.
| The PRSP DLL require CWT application 4.40 or later. |
The Parking Rights Service Provider (PRSP) DLL is used for creating parking tickets via the StreetSmart API.
PRSP does not handle payments, instead it provides pricing and parking rules for the type of ticket selected by the customer. The licence plate input is the mechanism used to offer the different types of tickets that are available at the particular parking terminal. Geographic location of the terminal may also have effect of what can be selected. The licence plate input comes via the PurchasePrerequisites API function which will block the CWT application until necessary selections are made by the customer. When the ticket type is selected, and pricing information is retrieved, the CWT application is released and the panel for stepping time or amount is showed. Mixed payment with coins and another payment method e.g. card, Swish etc. is possible.
PRSP is using the StreetSmart API to get the price for a certain amount of time or the duration for an inserted coin. A local tariff in the cwtconfig file is therefore not used but need to be present because of legacy reasons. Offline purchase when the HUB is unavailable is not supported.
Secure communication
The PRSP DLL connects to StreetSmart using secure communication which require a certificate authorized by Flowbird. Each terminal with a PRSP DLL must obtain its own certificate.
Working Offline
The PRSP DLL can work both online and offline.
When offline, default tariffs are used. Transaction and parking data will be saved and retransmitted when the system is back online.
