98CHAPTER 7: POS TERMINAL ACCESS SERVICE

If the FCM interface is used as POS access interface undo modem cannot be configured. If another interface is used as the POS access interface undo modem must be configured.

Since POS access does not support flow control, the interface should be configured with the flow-control none command.

If the POS access port is connected to the POS terminal in asynchronous mode, and the POS asynchronous port does not send a DSR-DTR signal, it is necessary to configure the command undo detect dsr-dtr on the interface. If the POS access port is connected to the FCM interface via dial-up, it is unnecessary to configure the undo detect dsr-dtr command.

3Configure POS Application

The POS access router connects to the UNIX FEP in the following two ways: asynchronous connection and TCP/IP connection. The commands used for configuring the POS application are different in the two modes. Connecting to the UNIX FEP through the Ethernet is called a TCP/IP connection, while connecting through the asynchronous serial port is called asynchronous connection. No matter how the connected is made, it is necessary to configure the POS application to UNIX FEP for the terminal.

Please perform the following configuration in system view.

By default, no POS application is configured by the system.

4Configure POS Application Interface

POS application interface should operate in posapp mode.

Please perform the following configuration in asynchronous interface view.

Table 75 Configure the asynchronous connection interface to operate in POS application mode

Operation

Command

 

 

Configure the operation mode of POS application

async mode posapp

interface

 

 

 

When the POS access router is connected to the UNIX FEP in asynchronous mode, the interface should operate in posapp mode.

This command can be configured only when the active interface is configured with the command async mode protocol

Only after the command undo modem is configured, can data be transceived normally.
