- connecting to POS-terminal;
- processing the data transfer protocol from the POS-terminal;
- logging the routing process;
- forwarding data to the IP-address and port number of POS-server;
- receiving titles from multicast titles translation.
The table describes the configuration elements of MixForward.
Element name | Element description | Element content | Element attribute | Attribute description | Value range | ||
InputPortType | POS-terminal data transfer protocol | Protocol name | - | - | RS232 – data transfer via COM-port UDP – data transfer using UDP TCP – data transfer using TCP/IP | ||
ServerPort | Local port number, if InputPortType is TCP or UDP | Whole positive numbers | - | - | 0 to 65535 | ||
Multicast | Enables the function of receiving multicast messages | - | - | - | True – function of multicast messages receiving is enabled False – function of multicast messages receiving is disabled | ||
MultiCastIP | Address on which multicast messages from external POS program will be sent in case of the UDP interface is selected in InputPortType parameter | - | ip | IP address on which the multicast messages sending is performed | - | ||
ProtocolName | Current data transfer protocol from the POS-terminal | Protocol name | - | - | Depends on the number of plug-ins linked to MixForward | ||
LogFileMaxSize | Maximum log file size, bytes | Whole positive numbers | - | - | - | ||
LogInput | Enables or disables the received data log | - | - | - | true - the log is enabled false - the log is disabled | ||
PingTime | The period of test packet sending in seconds | - | - | - | Up to 60 seconds | ||
RS232_settings | COM-port settings if InputPortType is RS232 | -
| PortName | Available COM-port name | Depends on the number of available ports | ||
BaudRate | Supported bit rate, bit/s | Depends on the number of supported bit rates | |||||
RtsEnable | Enable RTS option | 0 – do not use RTS control signal 1 – use RTS control signal | |||||
DtrEnable | Enable DTR option | 0 – do not use DTR control signal 1 – use DTR control signal | |||||
MSMQ_settings | MSMQ settings if InputPortType is MSMQ | - | ReconnectTimeout | The time after which an attempt is made to restore communication, if messages are not received | Up to 60 seconds | ||
NoTimeFilter | Enables or disables messages filtering by time | true - messages are filtered by time | |||||
DeleteMessages | Enables or disables message deletion after they are read | true - messages are deleted | |||||
Queue Path | Path to the queue | - | |||||
Terminal | Number of the terminal that is inserted for the specified queue | - | |||||
forwards | Sets the correspondence between the routing label and POS-server IP-address/port | - | ip | POS-server IP-address | Depends on the POS-server network settings | ||
port | POS-server port | Depends on the POS-terminal object settings | |||||
id | Routing label | Depends on the routing label value in the data package. If the id=”*”, then data from all POS-terminals is redirected to the POS-server | |||||
Multicast | Enables the function of receiving multicast messages | - | - | - | True – function of multicast messages receiving is enabled False – function of multicast messages receiving is disabled | ||
MultiCastIP | Address on which multicast messages from external POS program will be sent in case of the UDP interface is selected in InputPortType parameter | - | ip | IP address on which the multicast messages sending is performed

If the routing label of a package has no match in the utility configuration file, and the id=”*” is not set, the package is deleted. |
