Abstract
In order to introduce data, and in particular charging data, into the memory of a taximeter, the taximeter is connected to an adaptor which is in turn connected to the I/O connector of a local terminal which is connected to a central computer over a telecommunications network. The adaptor includes a microprocessor which is programmed to recognize the nature of the packets of data received from the central computer, to transcode the data, and to transfer the data into the taximeter memory.
