REGISTERING OLE PROGRAMMATIC ID ALIAS FOR OPOS CONTROL OBJECT

The OPOS specification states that the OLE Programmatic IDs for OPOS control objects should
be OPOS.xxx where xxx specifies the device class of the control object (e.g., MSR, MICR,
PINPad, etc). The result of this requirement is that only one control object of a specific device
class can be registered at a single time.

By default, the OMTD installation registers aliases for the control objects’ OLE programmatic
ID, as required by the OPOS specification. The registered aliases are:

• MSR Control Object

=

OPOS.MSR

• MICR Control Object

=

OPOS.MICR

• PINPad Control Object

=

OPOS.PINPad

• Line Display Control Object

=

OPOS.LineDisplay


If it is desired to use more than one control object of a specific device class at a time, the alias
registration can be bypassed by typing a:\setup c in step #4 below.

When the alias registration is bypassed, the control objects are registered under the following
OLE programmatic IDs:

• MSR Control Object

=

MAGTEK.OPOS.MSR

• MICR Control Object

=

MAGTEK.OPOS.MICR

• PINPad Control Object

=

MAGTEK.OPOS.PPAD

• Line Display Control Object = MAGTEK.OPOS.LDSP

MODIFYING AND REMOVING DEVICES

After the OMTD Controls are installed, the configuration utility (OMTDCFG.EXE) can be used
to update/remove OPOS configuration for installed MagTek devices. It is copied to the
C:\ProgramFiles\MagTek\MTDInstall Folder when the OMTD controls are installed.
OMTDCFG.EXE is a Win32 console application that has the following usage:

omtdcfg [/|-][option] [class flag]

The [option] parameter can be one of the following:

c , C

=

Configure OPOS support for installed MagTek devices

d , D

=

Remove OPOS support for configured MagTek devices

l , L

=

List currently configured MagTek devices

?
