What is it?

8. Januar 2019 2

A device for testing the EFTPOS terminals.

Enables card insertion and PIN entry with no human interaction.

Hardware and firmware info

Aluminum cage.

Power supply: 110/240/320 V, 50 Hz.

3 Stepper motors.

Smoothieboard microcontroller.

May be controlled via LAN or USB.

Understands a flavor of CNC G-Code.

How does it work?

Uses the 3 dimensional cartesian coordinate system, with the (x, y, z) axes.

(x, y) pair are used for the PINPAD pressing

(z) is used for the card insertion mechanism

How does it work(continued)

For pressing number 1 on PINPAD the (3.9, 3.9) coordinates must be forwarded to the robot.

Key “Menu” is on coordinates (4, 2).

Initial Settings

A terminal must be mounted to an adapter.

Every terminal type needs a custom adapter.

During first installation, the coordinates of all PINPAD keys have to be identified.

Initial settings

Card insertion mechanism needs to be correctly placed.

Calibration; finding the point (0, 0, 0) must be executed.

• The robot will slowly travel towards its zeros, until the 0 switches are touched.

Robot REST API

Abrantix delivers a robot, adapters and provides a json based Rest API for robot control.

8. Januar 2019 10

Robot REST API (continued)

One or more robots may be attached to the same integration layer.

The G-Code interface is abstracted

UL Test tools may be integrated into the AX integration layer
