OPOS(UnifiedPOS) defines a multi-layered architecture in which Point of Sale applications interact with the Physical Device through a standardized Control layer. The software company need only design their Point of Sale application to work with this Control to achieve compatibility with multiple hardware vendors. There have been many releases of the specification and listed below are many of our original controls that support our Magnetic Stripe Readers.

JavaPOS like UnifiedPOS defines a multi-layered architecture in which Point of Sale applications interact with the Physical Device through a standardized Control layer. The difference being that the Control is a Java based Control that communicates directly with the device, either in Java or through the use of a Java Native Interface (JNI). There have been a couple releases of the specification and listed below is the original control that support our Magnetic Stripe Readers.

NOTE: Our JavaPOS Control is designed to work hand in hand with the UnifiedPOS version of the Control. So if you have two different applications on your system they will share the Magnetic Stripe Reader even if they applications are on different architectures.
