[Asterisk-Users] Credit Card machines / interop

I tried this with an iAXY, I didn't have much luck. Even with most stuff
turned off (like echo cancellation) it still required a number of
attempts to get the data through and receive the accept. I gave up after
a while!

 

Sorry it's not much help, but if you have any luck, I'd be interested in
hearing about what you did.

 

Cheers,

 

Ben 

 

Ps. We were using UK PQD's

The object wasn't really to try to reduce costs by passing the call over
VOIP but since a possible deployment will not have a channel bank other
old school PBX type things I still need a way to connect these Credit
Cards machines to the ISDN line via the *.

	These machines in many cases call a freephone number, 800 number
in N. America but, around the world mostly numbers that are tollfree.
You cannot change the machine so like the Borg you need to adapt!

		Hi all,

		 

		One of the areas I am trying to research before I can
confidently start deploying Asterisk is "Credit Card Machines". (PDQ /
Streamline machines / any similar)

		 

		I'm talking about the credit card swipe boxes at point
of sale desks.  I believe they dial out to the specific bank provider
everytime a card is swiped.

		 

		My question is:

		 

		- Does anyone have any experience using these type of
devices with Asterisk, possibly with a SIPURA type SIP device.

		- If not, is my assumption that at the very worst I will
just have to connect them to a FXS port on the * and that should let the
device break out onto the ISDN E1 line?

		 

		As always thanks for any insights / advice people can
give.

		 

		cheers

		 

		alex
