This document outlines the specifications for establishing a physical and data connection between a POS terminal and a bank system. It describes the RS-232 serial connection details, data framing structure using start/end and error control characters, and the message formats for transaction requests and responses between the systems.

Pyhsical connection is established with RS-232 connection
1.1 Sagem POS Serial Port COM0 Modular 6-pin jack
1-GND 2-VCC (5 Volt) 3-RX 4-TX 5-CTS 6-RTS
1.2 Pyhsical connection
1 (GND), 3 (RX) ve 4 (TX) connections are used for pyhsical connection.
1.3 Connection Specifications:
19200 bps 8 bit No-parity 2. Data Connection Layer:
2.1 Control Charachters:
STX 02h ETX 03h EOT 04h ENQ 05h ACK 06h NAK 15h
2.2 Environmental Structure:
STX Implementation Message ETX LRC
2.2.1 LRC Except STX and including ETX, all the error control charachters ,after XOR applied ,for every byte in the frame
2.3 Flow and Error Control:
Sender sends the application message in frame structure
Received checks the LRC info for the frame If the LRC is correct , ACK is sent to the sender back. If the LRC is wrong, NAK is sent to sender back and POS swithes to receiving mode for 2 more times. If the sender received the NAK, the sender must try to send the frame 2 more times. The receiver waits 3 seconds incase the frame is somehow cut, for the rest of the frame. The sender waits max 3 seconds for ACK or NAK. In case the receiver do not send ACK or NAK, the frame is not repeated.
2.4 Hand-Shake and Operability:
By sending the ENQ to the POS terminal , the connection aktivity and the POS readyness to receive the messages , can be checked.
If ACK is sent as a response to ENQ, this means the connection is up and the terminal is active. If NAK is sent as a response to ENQ, this means the connection is up but the terminal is not ready to receive messages.
In case there is no response to ENQ at all, this means that there is a connection problem. 3. Implementation Layer:
