The application may address the Cash Drawer port in a number of ways. They are:

1)Using the J2 supplied OPOS drivers for Vista, XP, WEPOS and XP Embedded.

2)Using the J2 supplied Virtual COM port for CE.NET, XP, WEPOS and XPe.

3)Direct access to the I/O port that controls the firing of the cash drawer and the I/O port for reading the drawer status.

The Virtual COM port driver is standard on Windows CE.NET and the cash drawer appears as COM5.

To open Cash Drawer One: Send a bell character to the COM5 serial port. (The bell character is the ASCII 07 hex character “Control G.”)

To open Cash Drawer Two: Send an ESC character, then a bell character to the COM5 serial port. The open/close status of the drawer may be obtained by reading the status
