Appendix B - API Walk Through
CoreAPI Walk Trough
The following walks through how to create instances of devices.
CoreAPI.createDevice à IDevice
CoreAPI.getDeviceList à List
CoreAPI.createPPSCRA à MTPPSCRA
These examples demonstrate methods for creating an IDevice to be used in the MagTek Universal SDK. This also shows how to establish a device specific API, which is not used with the MagTek Universal SDK.
Here, a single IDevice is established.
// Access MMS with Universal SDK using createDevice()
IDevice mtmms = CoreAPI.createDevice(
context,
DeviceType.MMS,
ConnectionType.USB, "",
"",
"DynaFlex",
"");
mtmms.requestSignature();Here, a list of IDevice is established. The first device is accessed at index 0.
IDevice Walk Through
The following walks through how to make use of IDevice.
Implement device events within the class to receive events.
CoreAPI à IDevice.
IDevice à subscribeAll().
IDevice à other functions.
IDevice à startTransaction().

PersonalInfoEntry
These constructors initialize a PersonalInfoEntry object.
Call startPersonalInfoEntry().
At OnEvent():TouchscreenPersonalInfoEntry, build the object.
deviceType
Type of device.
dataBytes
Data to pass in after set from OnEvent().
data()
Returns the data payload.
dataType()
Returns the capture type.
encrypted()
Returns the encryption status. false = data is not encrypted true = data is encrypted
encryptionType()
Returns the encryption type.
ksn()
Returns the Key Serial Number.
Return Value:
Returns an instance of PersonalInfoEntry.
IEventSubscriber Delegates or can be extended by a separate class. This example uses a separate class and demonstrates how to parse for the various event types.
Example
Various events are separately shown below
IDeviceControl Walk Through
The following walks through how to make use of IDeviceControl.
IDevice --> IDeviceControl.· IDeviceControl à open().
IDeviceControl --> other functions.
IDeviceControl --> close().
Example
ConnectionInfo Walk Through
The following walks through how to make use of ConnectionInfo.
IDevice --> ConnectionInfo.
ConnectionInfo --> getAddress()
ConnectionInfo --> getConnectionType()
ConnectionInfo --> getDeviceType() Example
Example
IDeviceCapabilities Walk Through
The following walks through how to make use of IDeviceCapabilities.
IDevice à IDeviceCapabilities.
IDeviceCapabilities à BatteryBackedClock() to check if date/time should be set.
IDeviceCapabilities à PaymentMethods() to check card types supported.
IDeviceCapabilities à other functions.
IDeviceConfiguration Walk Through
The following walks through how to make use of IDeviceConfiguration.
IDevice --> getDeviceConfiguration().
IDeviceConfiguration --> updateFirmware().
IDeviceConfiguration --> getConfiguration().
IDeviceConfiguration --> setConfiguration().
IDeviceConfiguration --> other functions.
Example
Handling Events
