What is BS EN 1038 - Integrated circuit(s) card payphone about?
BS EN 1038 specifies the application dependent, IC card related characteristics for a payphone application. BS Note: EN 1038 does not define the application-independent characteristics. They are defined and described in EN 726-3 and EN 726-4.
Who is BS EN 1038 - Integrated circuit(s) card payphone for?
BS EN 1038 on integrated circuit(s) card payphone is useful for:
- Design engineers
- Telecommunications industries
- Software companies/ IT firms
Why should you use BS EN 1038 - Integrated circuit(s) card payphone?
A payphone is a terminal allowing access to telecommunication services after the insertion of the adequate means of payment. The basic service is to allow outgoing telephone voice calls whether or not it is able to receive incoming voice calls. Outgoing voice calls to certain services may be permitted without payment
BS EN 1038 defines the operating procedures and the minimal cardphone requirements for the card related part of the payphone application. These will benefit you in simplifying use through a common sequence and ensure the inter-European use of IC cards containing payphone related applications.
Overall, BS EN 1038 helps to:
- To ensure through the payphone application, the entitlement to the invocation of telecommunication features and payment methods
- How the payphone application detects which telecommunication features and payment methods are offered by the card
- How the payphone application or the user through the cardphone, can select the different telecommunication features and payment methods offered by the card
- The relation to the security module through the payphone
- Payphone application concepts
- The payphone function, only in the sense of voice telephony
