PinPadBase Class

Creates an instance of the PinPadBase class.

Indicates that an encryption key is corrupted or missing.

Indicates the specified firmware file or files exist, but one or more of those files are either not in the correct format or are corrupted.

Indicates a specified statistic could not be reset or updated.

Holds the programmatic name of the Communication Error Count common statistic.

Holds the programmatic name of the Device Category common statistic.

Holds the programmatic name of the Firmware Revision common statistic.

Holds the programmatic name of the Hours Powered On common statistic.

Holds the programmatic name of the Installation Date common statistic.

Holds the programmatic name of the Interface common statistic.

Incremented during the ExitPinEntryMode method if PIN entry has failed.

Holds the programmatic name of the Manufacture Date common statistic.

Holds the programmatic name of the Manufacturer Name common statistic.

Holds the programmatic name of the Mechanical Revision common statistic.

Holds the programmatic name of the Model Name common statistic.

Holds the programmatic name of the Serial Number common statistic.

Holds the programmatic name of the Unified POS Version common statistic.

Incremented during the ExitPinEntryMode method if PIN entry has occurred successfully.

Indicates that the device’s power is turned off or it is detached from the terminal.

Indicates that the device is powered on but is either not ready or unable to respond to requests.

Indicates that either the device’s power is off or it is offline.

Indicates that the device’s power is turned on and it is ready for use.

Indicates the update firmware process has completed successfully.

Indicates the update firmware process succeeded. However, the Service Object and/or the physical device cannot be returned to the state they were in before the update firmware process started.

Indicates the update firmware process failed. The device will not be operational until another attempt to update the firmware is successful.

Indicates the update firmware process failed. However, the device is still operational.

Indicates the update firmware process failed. The device is in an indeterminate state.

Indicates the update firmware process failed. The device is either unusable or unrecoverable through software.

Indicates the update firmware process has completed 1 to 100 percent successfully.

Used as the value for a timeout parameter in common and device-specific methods to indicate the method should wait until it receives a response, instead of timing out.

Holds the user’s account number for the current EFT transaction.

Holds security/encryption information, formatted as a Hex-ASCII string, after a successful PIN entry operation in which the DataEvent event is queued to the application with a DataEventArgs.Status of Success.

Holds the amount of the current EFT transaction.

Holds an array of the languages supported by the pre-defined prompts in the PIN pad device, as defined by the CultureInfo .NET Framework Class.

Holds a comma-separated string of supported values for the Prompt property.

Indicates the operations that the application can perform on the PIN pad display.

If set to true, the application can use the PIN pad keyboard to obtain input.

Indicates the language of pre-defined messages for the PIN pad device (for example, English, French, Arabic, and so on).

If set to true, the PIN pad supports MAC calculation.

If set to true, the PIN pad has a tone indicator, which is implemented as a ToneIndicator class object.

Gets a string that indicates the health of the device.

Gets or sets the hardware path of a device.

Holds the value of the encrypted PIN after the DataEvent event notifies the application that a PIN entry operation has been completed.

Indicates whether the PinPad is an exclusive-use device.

Holds the maximum acceptable number of digits to be entered for the PIN.

Holds the Merchant ID, as it is known to the EFT Transaction Host.

Holds the minimum acceptable number of digits to be entered for a PIN.

Indicates whether the PinPad is ready to accept PIN entry.

Holds a pre-defined message to be displayed on the PIN Pad.

Specifies the language in which the message specified by the Prompt property will be displayed, as defined by the CultureInfo .NET Framework class.

Contains getters and setters for PinPadBase and Common properties.

Gets or sets the object that is used to marshal the event handler calls issued because of a POS event.

Holds the Terminal ID, as it is known to the EFT Transaction Host.

Holds either the decoded Track 1 data from the previous card swipe or an empty string.

Holds either the decoded Track 2 data from the previous card swipe or an empty string.

Holds either the decoded Track 3 data from the previous card swipe or an empty string.

Holds either the decoded Track 4 data from the previous card swipe or an empty string.

Holds the current EFT transaction type.

Informs the PIN Pad’s service object that an EFT Transaction is starting.

Informs the PIN Pad’s service object that an EFT Transaction is starting.

Tests the state of a device.

Resets the values of properties altered by DataEvent or ErrorEvent.

Determines whether the version of the specified firmware is newer than, older than, or the same as the version of firmware in the physical device.

Tells the service object to compute a MAC value and return it to the application.

The PinPadBase class calls ComputeMacImpl from its ComputeMac method.

Deletes the specified property from the XML configuration file.

Used to communicate directly with the Service Object.

Starts PIN entry at the PIN pad device.

The PinPadBase class calls EnablePinEntryImpl from its EnablePinEntry method.

Takes the PIN pad out of EFT Transaction Mode.

The PinPadBase class calls EndEftTransactionImpl from its EndEftTransaction method.

Called by the service object to exit PIN entry mode.

Used by the Service Object to retrieve the specified property from the XML configuration file.

Used by the Service Objects to raise an event.

Opens a device for later input/output processing.

Called prior to the delivery of a DataEvent event to the application.

Sets a property value (or create a new property) in the XML configuration file.

Updates the firmware of a device with the version of the firmware contained or defined in the file specified by the firmwareFileName parameter regardless of whether that firmware’s version is newer than, older than, or the same as the version of the firmware already in the device.

Provides a new encryption key to the PIN pad service object for those PIN Pad Management Systems in which new key values are sent to the terminal as a field in standard messages from the EFT Transaction Host.

The PinPadBase class calls UpdateKeyImpl from its UpdateKey method.

Tells the service object to verify the MAC value in a message received from an EFT Transaction Host.

The PinPadBase class calls VerifyMacImpl from its VerifyMac method.
