NET – Open

Method Signatures

void Open(string POIID=null)
void OpenEx(string POIID=null, string OperatorID=null, string ShiftNumber=null)
async Task<OpenResult> OpenAsync(string POIID=null)
async Task<OpenResult> OpenExAsync(string POIID=null, string OperatorID=null, string ShiftNumber=null)

Description

The Open/OpenAsync call is the first method call that actually communicates with the terminal. It uses the information passed in the SaleApplInfo to the Start call. This starts a login session with the terminal.

Warning: Even if the Open is successful, some action towards the host will occur and possibly cause the next method call to fail.

Reset terminal state: A LoginRequest that happens when calling any of the open functions, should reset states in the terminal. A login session lasts until next open, close or reboot.

POIID cannot change during login session: To change POIID for a terminal a Logout or terminal reboot needs to be performed

Returns

An OpenResult object.
