Embodiments of the present invention provide a traffic communication module and method of forming the same. Specifically, among other things, embodiments of the present invention provide a traffic communication module (e.g., also referred to herein as a C2V module) having a set of components for facilitating/enabling communication between a master device (e.g., a console) and a set of slave devices (e.g., validators) across multiple communication protocols (e.g., rs485, rs232c, UDP, etc.). In a typical embodiment, the C2V module comprises: an application programming interface (API) component for configuring the traffic communication module; a communication component coupled to the API component for facilitating communications between the master and slave devices based upon a set of communication protocols; and a communication type component for generating a set of protocol-specific data packet files for the communications. The master devices and slave devices are also uniquely configured hereunder to provide for optimal operation. |
