Use STX/ETX Wrapper

Use this checkbox to enable Start of Text (STX) and End of Text

for hosts that don't run Visa protocol, but want to use async framing.

 

 

Discard ACKs

Use this checkbox to discard any ACKs sent by the terminals, rather

 

than sending them to the host. This option is used primarily for hosts

 

that don't run Visa protocol, but want to use async framing.

NOTE: Industry standard use of HTTP protocol limits its association to single request/response types of transactions, such as POS credit and debit authorizations. If you require support for multiple and batch-type transactions, you should determine the availability of extended support within the HTTP host server gateway before configuring the IN-tactto use HTTP protocol.
