Microsoft Pos .net 1.12
Hi,I am currently developing a WPF application in.NET Framework 4.5 to be deployed on a Poindus VariPOS 815 running Windows 8.1 Embedded Industry Pro 64bit. I have an Epson TM-T88V USB printer connected and workingfine.Unfortunately, I am unable to open the cash drawer. The cash drawer can be connected to the VariPOS either through the Epson TM-T88V USB printer orthrough a RJ-11 port labelled 'Cash Drawer' directly on the VariPOS. In both cases, the cash drawer is successfully opened, claimed and enabled.
However, it does not respond to the OpenDrawer signal. There is no error message nor a PosControlException- it simply does nothing.I am using POS for.Net v1.14 in conjunction with the Epson OPOS ADK v2.7.Does anybody out there have any advice on this problem?Thank you and best regards,Chris. I do not have a specific service object for this particular cash drawer, but I have:(1) the SO from the Epson OPOS ADK, when the cash drawer is connected to the printer. This worked well in the past with POS for.NET 1.12 and an earlier version of the Epson OPOS ADK.(2) An OPOS driver provided by Poindus (manufacturer of the VariPOS 815), for when the cash drawer is connected directly to the RJ-11 port on the system.I had not tried the TestApp.exe, but I did so now:In case (1), it fails at claiming with this error message: PosControlException ErrorCode(Illegal) ExtendedErrorCode(10002): Method ClaimDevice threw an exception. Attempt was made to perform an illegal or unsupported operation with the device, or an invalidparameter value was used.In case (2), opening, claiming an enabling, even CheckHealth) are all reporting success, but nothing happens upon pushing the 'Open' button.

CapabilitiesThe Belt class supports the following methods to do the following:.Move the belt in forward direction.Stop and reset the belt.The Belt class may support several additional methods. These enable moving in backward direction, moving with different speeds, light barriers, security flap, controlling an automatic stop, and emergency stop. See the 'General Model' section and the capabilities properties for specific information. General ModelThe general model of a Belt class is as follows:.After the belt is enabled, an application can call the and methods to control the motion.If the property is true, the application may also call the method.
The and properties define how many speed steps the belt motor supports in backward and forward direction.Because of safety regulations, a belt is usually equipped with security flaps at the end of the belt at both ends, if it can move backward. The and properties indicate whether a device has a backward and forward security flap.The P:Microsoft.PointOfService.Belt.CapAutoStopBackward and properties indicate whether a belt supports an automatic motor stop in backward and forward direction.Whether the application wants to use this feature can be controlled by setting the and properties. The belt is stopped if an automatic stop condition is true.
Usually such a condition is controlled by light barriers. However, it can also correspond to an internal state of the device which is not exposed. The condition is device-specific and has to be explained in the device documentation.Light barriers may be available for handling an automatic stop feature. The and properties indicate whether a device has a backward and forward light barrier.If the property is true, the application may control the automatic stop feature depending on several items passing the light barrier or any other item counting mechanism in forward direction by calling the and methods.

In this case, the belt is automatically stopped if the property is zero and an additional item is detected. This feature may be also available for backward direction.If the CapAutoStopForward property is true, an application may also delay automatic stop in forward direction by setting the property. The delay time starts when an automatic stop condition becomes true. The belt is stopped when the delay time has expired.
During delay time, automatic stop is canceled if the automatic stop condition becomes false. This feature may be also available for backward direction.The application is informed about any status change with a StatusUpdateEvent event. All corresponding status properties are updated before event delivery.An emergency stop occurs if one of the security flaps is open or the operator presses an emergency button. In this case, technical help is needed and the application has to reset the belt by calling the method. A security stop occurs if the belt has been stopped because of safety requirement regulations, but no technical help is needed.Inheritance HierarchySystem.ObjectMicrosoft.PointOfService.BeltMicrosoft.PointOfService.BasicServiceObjects.BeltBasic Thread SafetyAny public static ( Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread-safe.
