STEVAL-IPC002V1 demonstration board

for parking ticket vending machine

Introduction

A parking ticket vending machine is a hand-held, battery operated device, inside of which a

thermal printer is interfaced with the STM32 microcontroller from STMicroelectronics. This

document focuses on the STEVAL-IPC002V1 demonstration board, whose objective is to

print and generate parking tickets for different types of vehicles. The application can easily

be modified to suit other applications where paper printing is to be managed directly by the

microcontroller, such as POS-based applications, railway and bus ticket printing

applications, standalone printers, and the like.

Figure 1. STM32-based parking ticket vending machine

The thermal printer has an in-built stepper motor for thermal paper feeding, paper

movement, and so on. The stepper motor is controlled by a dedicated stepper-motor driver

with an SPI interface. The system operates on two Li-Ion batteries and an optional DC

adaptor. On-board battery chargers are available to charge the batteries from the DC

adaptor. The data to be printed is entered by way of touch keys, and can be verified on an

alphanumeric LCD.

3.1 Package

The STM32-based parking ticket vending machine demonstration board includes the

following items.

●Hardware:

– demonstration board

●Documentation:

– this user manual

– schematics, gerber files, BOM

●Firmware:

– pre-programmed STM32 device soldered on the demonstration board

– object files for the firmware

3.2 Hardware installation

The following instructions are for setting-up the STM32-based parking ticket vending

machine demonstration board.

1. Connect the 9 V, 2.5 A DC adaptor or connect two Li-Ion batteries (3.7 V, 1800 mAH) to

the connectors B1+, B1-, B2+ and B2-.

2. Feed the thermal paper (50 to 52 mm width) with the glossy (thermal printing) side up

as shown in Figure 2.

Note: Avoid running the demonstration board without inserting the thermal paper since this can

cause the printer to overheat and cause permanent damage.

3. Switch on the board (SPDT ON/OFF power switch).

You should now see the word "VEHICLE" on the LCD.

4. Select the vehicle type by pressing one of the following key combinations.

– 4 WHL: FUNC + 1

– 2 WHL: FUNC + 2

– HEAVY FUNC + 3

For example, to select a 4 WHL type vehicle, press "FUNC" (function key) and then "1".

The selected vehicle type is displayed on the LCD for 1 second.

5. The word "ENTRY" appears on the LCD. Press one of the following key combinations

to select the entry type.

– SINGLE: FUNC + 7

– PASS: FUNC + 8

The selected entry type is displayed on the LCD for 1 second.

6. Enter the vehicle number (last 4 digits) by pressing the corresponding numeric keys on

the keypad.

The number is now displayed on the LCD.

7. Send the print command by pressing the PRINT function (FUNC + 0).

The ticket is printed.

Doc ID 16916 Rev 1 7/30

The time can be set by pressing the SET function (FUNC + 9).

The 9 V adaptor is used to charge the batteries through the on-board battery charger.

To see the last 20 entries, press "FUNC" and then "6".

8. To replace the thermal paper, pull the black roll out of the printer. Place the paper (50 to

52 mm width) so that the glossy side faces up as shown in Figure 2. Put the black roll

back into place. If the paper is not inserted correctly the printout may not come out

properly.

The vehicles are categorized as follows:

●4 WHL = 4-wheelers (cars)

●2 WHL = 2-wheelers (bikes and scooters)

●HEAVY = heavy vehicles such as trucks or buses

The entry types are:

●Single = single entry/exit

●PASS = the user has a pass for multiple entries and exits.
