Figure 8-9 Some Devices Can Be Searched for Data Such as No Sale
Adding an Event Rule for a Data Recording Device
1. While adding a data recording serial device (as explained in Adding a Customer
Device that Sends Data to a Unit , page 158 ), select the Event Name box and enter a
name (for example, No Sale, see Figure 8-9 ).
2. In the Event Rule box, enter:
• A code obtained from the manufacturer of the device. For example, a no sale
message from a device is coded as one or more numbers, or text (refer to the
documentation for the device).
- or -
• A regular expression of your choice (see Reference for Searching Rules and
Regular Expressions on page 160 ).
3. Click Add.
4. The default Buffer Size value of 250 bytes should be adequate for most
organizations; however, consider that you may need to use a bigger buffer if any rules
use wildcards (see
Table 8-7 ). For large rules, change the number of bytes in the
Buffer Size field so that there are twice as many bytes as there are keystrokes in the
longest rule entered in
step 2 of this procedure.
5. You have the option of adding more events, as many as 512 different events or
regular expressions can be processed for each data recording device.
