The Axio Platform Validator is an attractive and robust validator for external locations – fully weatherproofed and vandal resistant to the IK10 rating. Its small footprint makes it ideal for floor or post mounting, while its ergonomic design ensures that it is DDA compliant. Its high luminance, all-weather colour screen ensures optimal customer experience in all conditions, whilst its proven architecture based on the successful Wayfarer200 ticket machine is configurable using Parkeon’s MERLIN software.
The Axio validator can be supplied either with push buttons or a touchscreen. Its cabinet includes a built-in speaker for tones or voice messages, while its keyboard uses capacitive technology for easier customer transactions and greater resistance to water and dust ingress. The contactless reader is integrated on the front door of the validator below the display, while an optional fast 2D barcode reader can also be provided for internet and mobile ticketing.
