Host Processor Setup - Minimal with Multiple Hosts

Field/Button

Description

Include TPDU

The TPDU is the next five bytes of the POS LAN Header and includes

 

information used for routing purposes. This option determines

 

whether or not these five bytes are included as part of the header.

 

This option should be set to match host processor configuration.

 

 

Use STX/ETX Wrapper

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

 

(ETX) wrappers if required by the host. This option is used primarily

 

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.
