The default value is 0 (disabled).
When OMTD is installed or reconfigured, the device configuration, as described above, is reset

OPENING THE DEVICE
The device name that should be provided on the Open method for the control is made up of the
friendly name for the device and the device class for which the open method is being called. It
has the following format:
<device friendly name>.<device class>
The table below shows the legal combinations of <device friendly names> and <device class>.
Device Classes

MiniWedge X
MICR+ X X
Mini MICR RS-232 X X

For example, the OPOS device names for MICR+ with an MSR is "micr+.micr" and "micr+.msr".
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.
