 1. Overview of the new network POS rice selling system

Network POS is a rice selling system developed by our company according to market demand. The system adopts real-time data processing method, which better solves the problem of multi-point consumption prone to overdraft. It is basically the same as the original rice system window machine. It is very suitable for colleges and universities to sell meals, bathing, control electricity, and supermarkets. , Internet cafes and other multi-point consumption card system is an ideal solution for colleges and universities to achieve card management. The new network POS system does not need to set up a network card and is not limited by storage capacity. It can effectively solve the problem of system capacity expansion. It is not only suitable for small and medium users’ scattered consumption, but also suitable for large-scale and multi-point consumption by large users.

2. Work flow of the new network POS rice selling system

The system uses database servers, switches, network POS, network servers, common POS under network servers, etc., based on Ethernet, and uses UDP data packets through the TCP/IP communication protocol to realize data exchange such as consumption, checkout, inquiry, and loss reporting.

That is, the network POS machine encapsulates the requested data in a UDP data packet and sends it to the server. After the server receives the data packet for analysis, it connects to the database server for data processing (such as checking the balance, checkout, etc.), and encapsulates the processing result in the UDP data packet Send it back to the network POS machine, so as to realize the real-time data exchange between the network POS machine and the server. At the same time, the POS machine data real-time processing program can also actively send out various setting and initialization command data packets, which can be used to initialize the network POS machine and send corresponding data such as blacklist and price list to the network POS machine.

The network server is connected to the Ethernet on the upper side, and connected to each POS window machine through the 485 line on the lower side. Through the 485 polling protocol, the receiving and sending status of each POS window machine and whether it is online are known. If the POS window machine has information to send, it will receive the data from the POS window machine and send it to the Ethernet as a UDP packet. If there is a data packet from the POS window machine on the Ethernet, intercept it and ask the POS window machine whether it wants to receive this data, and if so, send the data to the POS window machine through the 485 bus.

3. Main features of the new network POS rice selling system

1. The network POS machine is connected to the PC server through the RJ45 twisted pair cable via the LAN switch. The data transmission rate has been increased from 28800bit/sec of the original 485 serial line to 10MB/sec. The data transmission rate has been significantly improved, which greatly improves the operating efficiency of the entire system. improve.
2. Using a computer to replace the network card in the original system for data analysis and processing can avoid data loss due to hardware failure or damage of the network card in the original system, and make the system run more stable and reliable. At the same time, the operation of sending and receiving meals in the original system is cancelled, which makes the operation of system users more simplified.
3. All data is stored in the database server uniformly, and processed in real time according to the request of the POS machine, which can avoid the problem that the data update cannot be synchronized in time caused by the data in the original system being stored in different network cards at the same time, and fundamentally avoided The occurrence of the original card overdraft and other phenomena can make the operations such as deposit and withdrawal, new card application, and loss reporting take effect immediately, and at the same time, the card can be used to control the use of accurate limit and limit.
4. The system supports the connection of independent network POS machines (CTS6452T) and network servers (CTS011). Each network POS machine has an independent IP address. The data real-time processing program is mainly used to receive various query and consumption processing commands from the network POS machine in real time. This command is a UDP data packet based on the TCP/IP protocol. After the UDP data packet is interpreted, the database operation is performed according to the command word and the corresponding data information. Then the result is returned to the network POS machine. As a network node, the network server is the same as the network POS machine. It has the same independent IP address as the network POS machine. It is used to expand the network of a single network segment. The upper connection is connected to the Ethernet, and the lower connection is connected to each POS window through the 485 line. It can connect up to 32 ordinary POS machines.
5. Because the system uses a LAN environment based on TCP/IP protocol, the network environment is more flexible and the wiring operation is simpler. The network POS machine can realize cross-gateway operation, and can integrate multiple single network segments to make the network environment more flexible. Expansion is easier to achieve. The POS machine data real-time processing program runs on the data processing PC. When the local area network is a single network segment, up to 253 network POS machines or network servers can be connected, and theoretically unlimited expansion can be carried out through the gateway computer.
6. The UDP data packets communicated between the network POS and the server are encrypted by the popular DES algorithm, which greatly improves the security of network communication and provides a strong guarantee for the stable and reliable operation of the system.
7. The POS window machine under the network server adopts RS485 communication of the new protocol, which is completely consistent in structure and function with the CTS-6452 window machine.
8. The independent network POS window machine has a built-in TCP/IP module, which is connected to the network line, communicates directly with the server, has an independent IP address, and does not need to communicate with the data server through the network server. Others are consistent with the functions of the POS window machine under the network server.
