We develop solutions for boat rental companies. A prospect asked us if we could 'connect' our software to a 'cash register' as POS solution. As we never did this before, anyone has any ideas/thoughts/links on how this could be accomplished? Thanks in advance, Regards, Harry |

Stuart Kelly | Hi Harry,
Depends which model of cash register you are talking too. You maybe able to communicate over a network and grab the files you need. If your talking about ejecting a cash drawer, this can be done though a receipt printer. I work for a EPOS company and wrote all the code to talk to the peripherals, so I should be able to point you in the right direction. Cheers Stu |

"Rita" | I did this once and I bought a barcode reader from a guy in Manchester
UK It came complete with the Delphi source plus C++ code. Nothing got past my front door without getting zapped and stored in DBF pre Dbisam days I will see if I can find details but search for barcode reading components they include demos.

pos harware is pretty easy to setup.
-BC scanners can be Y'd into a KB cable or USB. We currently use USB. They both simply simulate KB entry. (open notepad and scan to review) -Receipt printers will have a driver, or you can use 'generic text printer'; Generic sometimes works better. -Cash drawer hook up to the printer and can usually be opened w/ sending a CHR(7) to the printer. -Card readers are also USB and just push the text like a KB. You will have to parse the data. (open notepad and scan to review) -Touch screens just simulate a mouse touch, no code changes (except bigger buttons for fat fingers Not like the old days of serial (ugh) Regards, Scott. |
