Abstract
A method of verification, in a taximeter or a travel distance counter, of tariff defining points in time which are dependent upon a real time clock, includes accelerating to a maximum relevant chronological continuous switching of the taximeter or the travel distance counter by executing a maintenance program in such a way that a chronological work cycle or timing of an evaluating program is effected in a time compressed form for triggering of tariff defining functions. The apparatus includes means for effecting the method.
