Opos Driver Installation - Bematech PDX3000 User Manual

7 OPOS DRIVER INSTALLATION

If the POS software uses OPOS (OLE-POS) software interface for controlling the
pole display operations, OPOS drivers must be installed. The OPOS driver supplied
by Logic Controls will work with the default Logic Controls command set.
1. The Logic Controls OPOS display drivers come in a CD. Either copy all files in
the CD into a hard disk folder or use the CD directly for installation.
2. Click on file <setup.exe> to start installation and follow instructions on the
screen to go through installation.
3. After installation, setup the OPOS driver by running PDSetup.exe. Start
<PDSetup> under Start Menu -> Programs -> LC OPOS -> Setup. The left part
of the dialog window is for setting up the configuration and the right part is for
testing commands sent to the OPOS display.
4. Select appropriate port name (for USB with device name drivers, select
LD1USB). Next, setup LDN (Logic Device Name). Click Add new LDN and a
new form will be displayed. Enter a new LDN, for example, "LineDisplay" and
then click OK.
5. To rename an LDN or delete an LDN, click Rename LDN or Delete LDN.
6. To test the pole display, follow the order of buttons. First click "Open", then
"Claim", then "Enable Device". Now the pole display is ready to display
messages.
7. Click on "DisplayText", a string is displayed on the pole display. Test other
functions to verify operations.
8. Click on "Release" and then "Close". Click on "Exit" to quit the program. The
OPOS driver has been setup and ready to run OPOS application software.
9. Set up the POS software to use the same Logical Device Name configured in
the OPOS driver and test with the POS software.
