Portable terminal with an IC card mounted thereon
First Claim
1. A management apparatus comprising:
- a portable terminal identifying module to receive card information from a non-contact IC card processing unit having a module to communicate with an IC card without contact and to acquire the card information including IC card identification information and outstanding value information, thereby to identify a portable terminal having the IC card based on said IC card identification information;
a memory module to store conditions for a corresponding operation;
a module to communicate with said portable terminal;
an information transmission determining module to determine whether predetermined information for charging against an outstanding stored fare value is to be transmitted to the portable terminal identified by said portable terminal identifying module in the case where contents of said card information satisfy said conditions for the corresponding operation; and
a module to transmit said information determined by said information transmission determining module,wherein said information transmission determining module is capable of performing selected one of an operation of using, as conditions for determining the transmission of predetermined information, selected one of a change item and a change amount of the change item of the card information set by a user of at least said portable terminal, and the operation of permitting the user to set the contents of the information transmitted to said user.

Abstract
In a portable terminal having an IC card, the outstanding SF value, the commuter pass information and the conditions for the corresponding operation to charge the SF value or renew the validity period of the commuter pass are stored in the IC card. The outstanding SF value and the validity period of the commuter pass are checked at a predetermined timing. In the case where the outstanding SF value and the validity period satisfy the conditions for the corresponding operation (in the case where the outstanding SF value is reduced to less than a predetermined amount, for example), the set corresponding operation is performed. Thus, a predetermined amount is charged against the outstanding SF value, or the oncoming expiry of the validity period of the commuter pass is notified. The conditions for the corresponding operation can be set and changed appropriately at the portable terminal.
