B.10. MEANS FILE (DEVICE)
The term Device or Means refers to the entity actually defined as the authorizing device, which may
be a VIU (Vehicle Identifying Unit), smart tag, key or magnetic card.
Normally, fleets contain vehicles and each vehicle is associated with an authorization device.
However, an attendant or a driver can also use an authorizer device, which, in this case, is not
vehicle mounted (i.e. card, key, tag or keypad entry). In order to make the definition simple and
logical, authorizer devices and vehicles are defined in the same entity.
