摘要:
A machine data acquisition system connected to a machine, for acquiring data on an internal status of the machine, and for use with an IC card having storage. The machine data acquisition system comprises an IC card accepting device which accepts the IC card, a machine data acquisition device which acquires data on the internal status of the connected machine, and a card writer which writes data acquired by the machine data acquisition device into the storage in the IC card.

An IC card system includes an IC card, an IC card read/write unit for reading/writing the IC card, a communication unit intervening for connection to a communication line network, a controller for controlling the IC card read/write unit and communication unit, and a server system connected to the communication line network. The IC card is written with at least specified access destination information for accessing the server system, the controller automatically accesses the server system through the communication unit in accordance with the access destination information in the IC card, and the server system offers information to an information offering destination determined automatically by information to be offered which is processed by the server system, an information offering destination already written in the IC card inserted in the IC card read/write unit or an information offering destination designated by a user after the insertion of the IC card.

In a vending machine selling products and services without human attendance, at a point of sale, a discounting service is provided to each purchaser according to the frequency-of-purchase record of respective purchasers. A microcomputer 2 collects electronic money corresponding to prices of products purchased from a product purchaser's IC card 8 inserted into an IC card reading apparatus 1 by each purchaser, and transfers it to a product seller's IC card. Further, on this occasion, the number of times of purchase corresponding to a personal ID stored in a product purchaser's IC card 8 is stored on the number of-times of purchase list of the memory unit 3, and a personal ID is registered on the personal ID list of a memory unit 3. When the number of times of purchase exceeds the reference number of times of purchase, when collecting e-money from the product purchaser's ID card 8 whose personal ID is registered on the personal ID list, the microcomputer 2 applies a discounted price as a price for the purchased product.
摘要:
A processing apparatus for processing information contained in an IC card. When an application is newly registered in the IC card, registration of a corresponding service application program in the processing apparatus is required. Further, when applications stored in the IC card differ from those stored in the processing apparatus, a method of displaying names of the applications in a uniformized manner is required. For coping with these cases, an IC card read/write unit of the processing apparatus is made use of for registering service application programs in a memory incorporated in the processing apparatus, while the application names are registered in a memory area of the IC card in a common character code for allowing the names of the applications registered in the IC card to be displayed whenever occasion requires.
摘要:
An IC card arrangement wherein information which is the standard for transaction conditions such as amount information in an IC card is registered within the IC card, and further included is additional conditional information such as age, sex, etc. information for an owner of the card, or a predetermined contract destination. When a transaction is attempted using the IC card, restrictions and conditions for the owner, etc., are automatically set using the additional conditional information within the IC card.
摘要:
An IC card automated transaction terminal is provided to operate in conjunction with an IC card capable of storing a plurality of different balances relating to commercial transactions. For example, the IC card can provide separate storage for electronic money information and bonus point information. IC card reading/writing means are provided in the terminal for reading and writing such information stored in said IC card along with input means for inputting transacted sum information and information storage means for storing electronic money information equivalent to transacted sum information. In another embodiment, small sum and large sum balances can be separately stored on the IC card, with only the large sum balance being locked and requiring a security code to carry out a transaction.
摘要:
A processor automatically sets a direction of transferring electronic money information depending on the existence of IC cards connected to IC connecting portions and the existence of an external device connected to an external device connecting terminal, thus making instructing operations for transferring electronic money information easier.
