Smart Point®, is composed of an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM- memory). The memory can be organized in a maximum of four pages, each of which is protected with two access codes: SID (Software Identifier) and SAC (Software Access Code), 16 and 32 bits, respectively. The content of each page can be viewed by all Providers or, alternately, only by the Provider who owns the specific page. On the other hand, the page can only be modified by its owner and only if enabled for writing operations.

Data are transferred to memory through contact with a special interface (VGL-H). This interface is a printed circuit with components installed on both sides and a "micro-controller" containing a specific program. A proprietary communications protocol is used to access this program.

The electronics and the communications protocol commands have been simplified to the utmost, making the interface as general as possible. In this manner a system has been obtained that can be interfaced with all the existing hardware (PC or hand-held) and with all the operating systems and software already in use.

Therefore the system lets you keep trace of the information required for prompt, correct management and control. Moreover, since it can be interfaced with pre-existing software and hardware, these data can be transferred from the field to the center using a serial, remote, wi-fi, bluetooth or GSM/GPRS connection, depending on the distance.
