How to Manually Program the Tari
ff
With this procedure it’s intended to explain in detail the F1’s Tari
ff
Programming.
It is possible to use up to 429 parameters to program a tari
ff
. These parameters are located into a single memo-
ry Block. The blocks available in the taximeter are 63 and each one has its set of 429 programmable parameters.
Program a tari
ff
in the M1 MDT taximeter is like to
fi
ll a chart made of 63 columns (63 Blocks) and 429 lines ( Parameters).
For a simple tari
ff
is su
ffi
cient a single Block to compute the
fi
nal amount. For a complex tari
ff
the user must program other
parameters in more blocks to generate complex
fi
nal amounts. Their content replace, at the programmed event (Prog.Date, Key
press, etc..) the relevant parameters of the Working Block. Every new modi
fi
ed parameter value in a Block will replace the old one
in the Working Block upda ng the tari
ff
. Note that only the changed parameters going to subs tute the old ones, the unchanged
parameters value remain ac ve. The taximeter’s internal so ware read the blocks in chain and compute them in a so called “Work-
ing Block”: this is the one that makes the
fi
nal amount calcula on. The blocks chain starts with the Block 0 (It’s the
fi
rst Block that
the taximeter loads when it’s being started up) and ends with the Block 62.
For a simple tari
ff
, that use at least only the Block 0, the taximeter behavior is as follow:
Starts up (Block 0 loads its content of 429 parameters value in the Working Block) > Pressing OP it passes from For Hire to
Hired state ( The programmed parameters now are ac ve to generate the tari
ff
) > Trip ended, stop the taximeter
