.Net SDK Integration

The TIM API uses two different types of automatisms:

Pre-Automatisms

Actions performed automatically before a function can be called. For example, a transaction can be called in disconnected state without having called connect, login, and activate in advance. These are called automatically by the TIM API.

Pre-Automatisms are enabled by default and cannot be disabled.

Create Terminal Settings

Create TerminalSettings and initialize connection parameters (see Setup Configuration)

2

Create Terminal Instance

3

Set Properties

Set some properties where required:

• Define a POS ID
• Create mandatory list of EcrInfo and add with AddEcrData
• Create list of PrintOptions and set the terminal member PrintOptions
