hi. how close are the dvr and register to each other. rs232 to rs485 will do. we use the moxa.

not very far <10 meters

 

but whats the layout and setting of both?

with only 10m then just connect each via rs232. the settings are in pos set-up. just select test and set your register and see what text you get.

thank you for the reply,

but i unfortunly don't know what you mean in your last reply.

 

The Averdigi EH1004h has some options for pos, i can select a protocol, and thats about it.

 

my question: cable layout from pos to Averdigi EH1004h and the settings to be used.

 

please help

the quickest way is with 2 of the moxa that i listed above linked with cat5. from your register to your dvr.

you set both up to the same protocol (set both to general first)

 

 

or another way is over the lan (if your register does back office)

just for my information,

Can the Averdigi eh1004h be connected directly to the pos?

Or must this be used with posbox and/or ipos software?

I'me sorry but can't get this to work.

 

Here is what i've done:

AX 3000: journal transfer, Com2 ,9600,8,n,1, no flow control

 

Cable 2 sud-d f-male :

5-5

2-3

3-2

 

Averdigi Eh1004h:

POS setting: protocol: general, com1, 9600 (no text filter, no keywords) camera1 checked

what am i doing wrong?

 

 

PS: "Ipos live" is grayed out.

POS's and the RS232 cables can be EXTREMELY fickle. You may need to set up the 7 & 8 cross and for a couple I've even needed to initiate the 6-4 cross too

Thank you for the useful reply!

 

Can you also let me know what settings you used on the EH1004h under pos settings?

And what the flow control was used with the 7&8 cross and the 6&4 cross cable?

 

Thank you.

lemme201, I understand your frustration.

 

I came across your post via a google search I was doing for a project I'm working on and realized that I joined cctvforum many years ago, asked a question and disappeared. Here it is 6 years later and hopefully I can finally give something back

 

A feature that really attracted me to the EH1008H (and EH1004H) was the Integrated POS function and the thought that the POS system could connect directly to the Nano. No dice.

 

After a few hours of tinkering on both the POS and Nano I finally contacted my distributor as well as Avermedia directly. They both said that the POS capture box was required. So, I bought one and was capturing text within a few minutes of connecting it.

 

I can't say with 100% certainty that this will solve your problem, but I can say that the pos capture box solved my problems.....and that I was advised to use the box from both my distributor and Avermedia tech support. But, please keep this in mind - the box is not foolproof. I've run into scenarios where the box will not work. It has to do with capturing text off an Epson TM-T88III, IV or V receipt printer using the Epson advanced printer driver with some features enabled. That can be a topic by itself and I won't go into it here.

I missed this reply... or I forgot I replied to it!

 

I've not used the Avermedia... however. If you have the ability to build your own RS232 cable, I suggest this first

 

Build the cable as follows.

 

1 -----

2 - 3 |

3 - 2 |

4 -----

5 - 5

6 -

7 -

8 -

9 -

 

 

In other words, wire 2 to 3 and 3 to 2 and 5 to 5.

then at each end, connect 1 & 4 in a loop.

 

When the lines are handshake looped (1&4), the RTS output from the PC immediately activates the CTS input - so the PC effectively controls its own handshaking.

 

See if that works and get back to me
