How to Determine if ETC is Functioning Properly?
1 Answers
To determine if ETC is functioning properly, follow these methods: 1. Insert the chip card face-up into the electronic tag. Upon hearing a beep, if the electronic tag screen displays 'Toll Card' or the balance amount, it indicates normal operation for ETC lane passage; 2. If inserting the ETC card into the electronic tag shows messages like 'Electronic Tag Invalid' or 'No Card Inserted,' it indicates an abnormality in the electronic tag. In such cases, visit an ETC service outlet for reactivation and reinstallation. ETC operates through dedicated short-range communication between the vehicle-mounted electronic tag installed on the windshield and the microwave antenna in the toll station's ETC lane. It utilizes computer networking technology for backend settlement processing with banks, enabling vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay fees.
