# Reference BOM (recommended devices)

Reference bill of materials. Models to **verify for local availability (Albania/EU)**; the
payment terminal is dictated by the acquiring bank. (See [[parking-system-architecture]] §9.)

| Subsystem | Recommendation | Why |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Barrier operator | Magnetic Autocontrol / FAAC / CAME / Nice | Owns physical safety in firmware ([[barrier-not-a-door]]) |
| Induction loops | Feig / BEA / EMX | Safety + free-exit detection |
| Access controller | [[uhppote-controller]] now → ZKTeco later | Reader + relay; **isolate the VLAN** ([[network-isolation]]) |
| Permit readers | Nedap/Kathrein UHF, or Mifare → [[wiegand]] | Hands-free, or autonomous offline decisions |
| Casual identity | [[lpr-camera]] (Milesight, edge AI) | Plate = ticket + independent record |
| Ticket dispenser | Custom VKP80 | Parking-grade thermal/ESC-POS |
| Booth printer | Epson TM / Citizen (USB or network) | ESC/POS; one adapter covers both transports |
| Payment | Bank-certified P2PE standalone terminal + cash drawer | Keeps the app out of **PCI-DSS scope** |
| Host machine | Fanless industrial PC + UPS + [[atecc608]] | Reliability, power-loss safety, offline signing |
| Network | Managed VLAN switch, PoE+ | Isolate the open control protocol |

Open procurement-driving decisions live in [[open-questions]] (esp. lane topology, payment
subsystem). Payment subsystem detail: a standalone certified terminal keeps PCI scope out of
the application — [[open-questions]] #3.
