! ! ! !125 To add a data-recording rule to a customer device
1. Select a data-recording device, click the Events Name box, and then type a
name.
2. In the Rule box, type a code obtained from the cash register manufacturer. For
example, a credit sale message could simply be coded as “CARD”, a number
or some other rule.
3. Click Add, on the Events side of the tab.
4. Compare the value in the Buffer Size box to the possible length of data returned by
rules typed in step 2. Adjust the record length so that it is greater than, or equal to,
the longest data set returned by the rule. Consider that certain rules use wildcards
(see table 20), and that the length of the returning text string may be hard to
predict. A default value of 250 satisfies most applications.
5. Click Add on the Device side of the tab.
6. Click Apply.
! ! ! !126 To list the data-recording rules of a customer device
