Vending terminal (PoS)
The MCT88M-IO terminal when connected to virtual controller via Ethernet (LAN) can be used as Point of
Sale terminal. Virtual controller is a Windows Service installed on computer by means of RogerSVC
software which is available at
Virtual controller with MCT88M-IO terminal can monitor and control products dispensing. Products are
selected with terminal input lines (e.g. with connected button) and with function keys. The name of product
is displayed by MCT88M-IO and after user identification (e.g. with proximity card) particular output line of the
terminal is activated which on the other hand can be connected to vending machine dispenser or feeder. At
the same time the controller deducts cost of the product from the user total limit which is defined by system
administrator. The user can purchase certain amount of credits in advance or all costs can be settled when
user leaves premises/hotel. The total amount of user’s expenses are reported in VISO software and they
can be made available to third party software through RACS 5 Integration Server.
Assets management terminal
The MCT88M-IO terminal when connected to virtual controller via Ethernet (LAN) can be used as terminal
for management of assets under control of RACS 5 system. Virtual controller is a Windows Service installed
on computer by means of RogerSVC software which is available at
. Assets management
functionality requires licensed VISO EX sofware.
Virtual controller with MCT88M-IO terminal can monitor and control renting and returning of items by users.
Rent or return function is selected with terminal input lines (e.g. with connected button) or with function keys.
After user identification at the terminal (e.g. with proximity card) particular output line of the terminal can
open lock to grant access to assets. It is possible to define users who can and cannot access assets. Assets
must be assigned with identifiers so they could be recognized by the system. When asset is collected or
returned by user then its identifier (proximity card, bar code, etc.) must be read/scanned. The virtual
controller enables consolidated assets management and monitoring on the level of VISO software. More
information on assets managements is given in AN026 Application note which is available at
