POS devices to be used with Demo1
The section
“# with/without JavaPOS device”
in the demo1.properties file
indicates with
yes/no which POS devices are connected on the POS Device HUB.
The section “
# OPOS/JavaPOS device service name
” indicates the open names of the Ja-
vaPOS device services (normally, you do not need to change anything here, if you had used
the values from the demo1_moPOS.properties file. The values have been already set with
the correct open names used in the moPOS context.
5.3
Remote usage with POS Device HUB
The demo1 application software has to connect to Unified POS Device Servers on one or
more POS Device HUB’s and to one Admin Server. In case the demo1 application shall be
used without an Admin Server you may configure to use a Dummy Server implementation.
In that case there is no central instance controlling the proper m:n assignments of POS De-
vice HUBs and tablets.
