Appendix J—IEE FTP Site
IEE’s FTP website has the full content of the SDK CD-ROM and software upgrades to
the price verifier unit. Any or all of these files can be downloaded to a computer.
The easiest way to reach IEE’s FTP web site is with Microsoft’s IE Explorer. The steps
to get to the FTP website are as follows.
1. Using IE Explorer, address to ftp://ftp.ieeinc.com/
2. Verify the correct website is found by checking the blue bar at the top.
3. You should see a single folder called “incoming” or possibly it will be blank.
4. Click on File on the menu bar.
5. In the dropdown menu click Login As…
6. In the window enter User Name: IEEMorse and Password: warcode
This should get you into the FTP site. You will see a number of folders. The upgrade
folders for VF and LCD can be downloaded—read all the instructions before you try to
upgrade a unit.
The folder called IEE has the complete contents of the SDK CD-ROM. This complete
folder or only specific folders or files may be downloaded as you wish.
Appendix K—Running an Open Socket
The price verifier is designed for a socket listener on the host server to open port 1283
from an inquiry from the price verifier and close the port when the request is complete.
A special mode has been implemented that will send keep-alives to the socket at the
frequency entered into UnitConfig. In this mode, the socket is kept open as long as the
keep-alives are sent. Other processes can be run between the price verifier and the
host that are unrelated to the price verification task.
To keep the socket open: enter any non zero integer (seconds) into the KeepAliveTime
mode in UnitConfig. Factory default is socket normal.
