NTRODUCTION
The Commander™ Site Controller is a high-powered server that
increases the capacity and functionality of VeriFone's ethernet
capable Point of Sale (POS) workstations by extending the processing
and communications bandwidth for managing peripherals.
Future needs are designed into the hardware to provide support for
additional serial ports and CPU boards along with additional fan and/
or power connection that may be needed as a result. Use of these
expansion capabilities will be determined by VeriFone.
System peripherals, such as fuel dispensers, dispenser card readers
(DCRs), and car wash controllers connect directly to the Commander
Site Controller.
Commander Console provides additional functionality with four
separate software modules: Journal Browser, Configuration Client
(for browser-based configuration), Transaction Manager, and Report
Navigator.
