# About Connections and Data Formats

MMS products transmit data using a set of common data formats across a variety of physical connection layers, which can include universal serial bus (USB) acting as a vendor-defined HID device (“USB HID”), wireless LAN (WLAN), Bluetooth®, Bluetooth® Low Energy (“Bluetooth® LE”), RS- 232, Apple Lightning, and so on. The set of available physical connection types and the data formats available on each connection type is device dependent. **Table 2** shows the physical connection types available on each product, and the data formats supported on each connection type for that device. Details about connection types and formats can be found in **Section 2 Connection Types**. Section headings in this document include tags that indicate which connection types and/or data formats they apply to.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://developer.magtek.com/hardware/card-readers/mms-dyna-devices/emv-common-kernel/dynaflex-ii-go/documents/programmers-manuals/programmers-manuals-commands/introduction/about-connections-and-data-formats.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
