1-4. SYSTEM WORKFLOW – EXAMPLES

1-4.1. General

This section provides examples of different operational workflow, refueling, scenarios for self-
service at the Home Base Station. These examples are a function of the payment and transaction
devices available in each Station Controller system.

1-4.2. Refueling Scenario with FuelPoint PLUS

A motorist stops for fuel at the station. His authorization device for the fueling transaction is a
vehicle identification unit (VIU) mounted in his car. The client lifts the nozzle and inserts it into
the car’s fuel inlet.

The VIU information is automatically read and sent to the Site Controller (OrCU) for
authentication and approval. Upon approval the fueling transaction starts, once refueling is
completed, the motorist replaces the nozzle back to pump. At this point the transaction data is
kept internally. Data is periodically transferred to the Fleet Head Office (FHO) for future billing.

1-4.3. Refueling Scenario with Magnetic Cards

A motorist stops for fuel at the station. His authorization device for the fueling transaction is a
magnetic card. The client swipes the card through the magnetic card reader on the payment
terminal.

The magnetic card information is read and sent to the Site Controller (OrCU) for authentication
and approval. The client lifts the nozzle and inserts it into the car’s fuel inlet. Upon approval,
the fueling transaction starts, once the refueling is completed, the motorist replaces the nozzle
back to the pump. At this point the transaction data is kept internally. Data is periodically
transferred to the Fleet Head Office (FHO) for future billing.

During the authorization process the motorist may be prompted to enter more data to the
transaction (PIN code, Odometer, Vehicle No., Etc.). This is done by manually entering the
information using the payment terminal keypad.

1-4.4. Refueling Scenario with 2 devices (2 stage
authorization)

A motorist stops for refueling at the gas station. His authorization devices for the refueling
transaction include any two devices. One represents the vehicle and the other represent the
driver (e.g. two cards, two tags, card and tag, card and manual entry, etc.). The refueling
scenario for each device is the same as with magnetic cards (see above). For each device, the
motorist may be requested to add more relevant data to the transaction (PIN for the driver,
Odometer recording for the vehicle, etc.). The OrCU opens the dispenser for refueling only after
successful authorization of the two devices.

For all options above, the motorist may print a transaction ticket from the Islander PLUS printer
(optional).
