Chapter 10: Wedge to USB MSR Software Migration 10-1
Chapter 10:
Wedge to USB MSR Software Migration
Overview
The
purpose
of
this
chapter
is
to
explain
configuration
and
software
installation
changes
that
are
required
to
migrate
your
OPOS/JavaPOS
application
from
a
Wedge
MSR
to
a
USB
MSR.
Note:
This
only
applies
to
OPOS/JavaPOS
applications
running
in
Windows
Operating
Systems.
USB
is
not
supported
under
DOS.
Background
on
why
the
registry
setting
is
necessary
now
and
not
before:
•
The
7402
uses
a
Wedge
MSR,
which
does
not
report
card
swipe
failures.
The
7403
uses
a
USB
MSR,
which
does
report
card
swipe
failures.
•
OPOS
2.x,
which
is
most
likely
running
on
the
7402,
implemented
the
MSR
service
object
to
leave
DataEvents
enabled
on
ErrorEvent.
•
RetailControls
3.x
implements
the
MSR
service
object
to
disable
DataEvents
on
ErrorEvent.
The
UPOS
specification
was
unclear
on
this
until
version
1.12.
Version
1.12
clarified
the
specification
to
state
that
the
Service
Object
should
not
disable
DataEvents
on
error.
Retail
Controls
is
currently
not
UPOS
1.12
compliant,
which
presents
a
problem
for
customers
that
have
already
developed
their
applications
to
work
with
our
RetailControls
3.x
implementation.
The
current
solution
is
to
leave
the
RetailControls
3.x
default
as
is
and
to
add
the
registry
value
(DisableDataEventsAfterError)
for
applications
that
are
implemented
to
work
with
the
UPOS
1.12
specification.
It
is
assumed
that
the
person
who
is
performing
this
operation
is
an
IT
person
for
the
customer
or
ISV
who
has
a
7403
configured
and
working
with
a
Wedge
MSR.
The
following
are
the
topics
are
discussed.
•
Software
Requirements
for
USB
MSR
•
Retail
Platform
Software
for
Windows
Versions
•
Potential
Operational
Differences
Between
Wedge
MSR
and
USB
MSR
•
Deployment
Considerations
