TechLink V1.1 Wireless EFT
The TechLink V1.1 terminal is an EFT terminal which
has been taken over by the OCM project to MICROS Retail OSCAR POS 4.5 standard. Unlike to all
other EFT terminals, the activity comes always from the EFT terminal, which
communicates with a special "Server terminal"
The EFT terminal will transfer the terminal number,
the operator number and the invoice number, which was created at the till with
the payment type "In
Advance", to the Server terminal. This
terminal checks the validity of the RFP invoice number. If valid, the RFP invoice
amount will be transfered, the EFT is starting the authorization and will
print a customer coupon and if necessary a merchant coupon via the integrated
printer. The operator has the possibility to record a TIP amount. At the end,
the authorized data will be transfer to the server terminal to complete the
payment transaction. If successful, the card ID, invoice Amount, Tip, fee
amount, currency etc.).
The device interface for the TechLink
V1.1 terminal will not be evaluated, an interfaces with any number can be
entered (e.g. 99 = NULL). For the communication, the IP address and the port
number of the system unit for the server terminal has to be configured at the
EFT terminal
