If the user inputs a network selection at 2, the MPTSCM confirms this at 5 and searches for a network denomination at 6. If the user opts to proceed, the current internal enquiry sequence ends at 8 and a subroutine of the MPTSCM opens at 9. If the user does not select a network at 2, the MPTSCM prompts with a signal to clear at 11. A user's response of yes simply returns the main G. U.I. screen at 15 onto the display screen. A no response from the user at 11 causes the display unit to show an invalid network error at 17 and the MPTSCM returns the get user option prompt at 2 onto the display screen.
  • MPTSCM mobile phone top-up software control module
  • the MPTSCM presents the user with a list of available denominations at 20 and verifies if the user has selected one at 21. If the user does not enter an option, the subroutine ends at 23. If the user selects a denomination this is verified by the MPTSCM at 24, the transaction is added to a receipt at 25 and the subroutine returns the get user option prompt at 21 to the display screen. If the user fails to select a denomination at 24, the subroutine displays a clear prompt at 26 and if the user selects yes, the subroutine ends at 23. If the user selects no to the clear prompt at 26 an invalid denomination error is reported at 30 and the subroutine returns the get user option prompt at 21 to the display screen.

  • the user is prompted for their account details at 35 and if the user enters their account details validly at 35, they are prompted by the BPSCM to enter the amount required to pay the bill at 37.
  • the amount is added to the overall invoice at 39 and the BPSCM ends at 40. If the user does not provide an option at the original prompt for a bill type at 32, the BPSCM ends at 40. If the user selects a bill type to pay at 33 but declines to select a valid type of payment at 41, the user is prompted to clear the screen at 42. If the user selects yes the main menu at 44 is returned to the display screen. If the user replies no to the clear prompt, the BPSCM reports an invalid bill pay option error at 47 and returns the get user option prompt at 33 to the screen. If the user does not supply account details when requested at 35, the BPSCM returns to the get user option at 33 onto the display screen. Similarly, if the user does not supply an amount to clear the bill, the BPSCM returns the get user option at 33 onto the display screen.
  • the user inputs and the prompts returned by the vending machine software control module are indicated generally by the reference numeral 51.
  • a customer requests a packet of cigarettes and the EPOS apparatus operator presses the vending button on the user input device at 52.
  • a list of vending options is displayed at 52 and the VMSCM monitors for a user option at 53.
  • the operator makes a selection and the VMSCM checks if the selection made by the user is valid at 54. If the selection is valid, the VMSCM sends the vending message to the vending machine server at 55 and the machine vends the desired product.
  • the VMSCM checks if the vend was successful by prompting the operator at 56, and if it was, the VMSCM adds the value of the vended product to the total invoice at 57 and the VMSCM ends at 58. If the operator fails to supply a vending option at 53, the VMSCM ends at 58 after a predetermined time. If VMSCM discovers that an invalid vending option has been supplied at 54, the VMSCM prompts the operator to clear the transaction request at 59. If the operator agrees, the VMSCM returns the main menu onto the display screen at 60. If the operator replies no to the clear prompt at 59, the VMSCM returns an invalid option error at 61 and returns the get user option prompt at 53 onto the display screen.
  • the user inputs and the prompts returned by the fuel pump software control module are indicated generally by the reference numeral 71.
  • the FPSCM monitors for a user option at 73 and if a customer has lifted a pump the user may opt to select the authorise option at 74.
  • the FPSCM prompts for the user to select the pump to authorise at 75 and the user selects a pump at 76.
  • the FPSCM communicates a command signal to the controller of the selected pump and fuel is vended at 79. When fuel is vended the FPSCM ends.
  • the FPSCM prompts for a pump selection at 82. If the user selects a pump and a customer supplies the prepaid amount at 83, the FPSCM communicates a command signal to the controller of the selected pump and fuel is vended at 79.
  • the user can select the customer pay option at 91 and the FPSCM prompts the user to select a pump which the customer wishes to pay for at 92.
  • the user selects a pump and if there is more than one transaction at 96 the user selects which transaction to pay at 93.
  • This selected transaction, or if there is only one transaction the single transaction is added to the receipt at 94 and the paid transaction is locked at 94 to prevent two customers paying for the same transaction.
  • the receipt is printed and the FPSCM ends at 79.
  • the user may opt to select a pump stop option at 101 and the FPSCM prompts for a pump selection at 102.
  • the user selects a pump and the FPSCM sends a command signal to stop the selected pump at 103. If a user presses the stop button twice at 105, all pumps are stopped at 106. This is a security feature in the event of accidents, fires and the likes. If there are a large number of pumps in the forecourt the FPSCM presents the option of cycling through all of the pumps on the display screen nine at a time for example at 107.
  • the user inputs and internal enquiry sequences of the weighing scales software control module are indicated generally by the reference numeral 121.
  • the WSSCM monitors the scales and if the user sets fruit or vegetable on them, the WSSCM runs an enquiry sequence at 123 starting with monitoring for errors at 124 and if no errors are detected the WSSCM monitors that the weight of the object on the scales is steady at 125. If the weight is steady, the WSSCM checks that the weight is not zero at 126 and if the weight is not zero the WSSCM checks that the weight is valid at 127.
  • the WSSCM detects a negative response to any of these checks it will stop the internal enquiry sequence and return to check that the communication between the scales and the EPOS apparatus is in place at 128.
  • the WSSCM sends a validation request to double check the information already obtained at 129 and the validated data is compared with the first set of data at 131. If the data compares the WSSCM runs a calculation program to generate a cost of the weighed product and the cost is added to the receipt at 132 and the WSSCM ends at 133.
  • Figure 6 illustrates how the system can operate together where the user is provided with options so as to select a telephone top up, a bill pay service, use of the vending machine, a fuel transaction or the use of weighing scales to sell products sold by weight.
  • the drop down menu is operated by an operator selecting the required button on the keyboard. This calls the relevant Drop Down Menu. From this menu the operator presses the number corresponding to the line number of the required product as shown in the sample screen of Figure 7.
  • the drop down menu allows operators to sell any product with just two key strokes.
  • the options available 1-9 represent the numerics on the keyboard, 0 allows the operator to exit. This means the operator does not have to scroll up and down through a list which may contain 30 or 40 items - thus slowing down the selection process.
  • Traditionally if an operator wanted to sell an item without a barcode e.g. nectarines, they would have to look up the relevant product code (normally three or four digits)for the nectarine and key in this code and press the Enter button or equivalent. This would involve 4 or 5 keystrokes.
  • the invention ensures an operator can sell any product by only pressing two buttons - the relevant drop down menu key and the required line number. There is also no need to keep a list of products and their codes at the checkout - thus also saving time.
  • Figures 8 and 9 explain the use of the drop down menu to sell mobile phone top-up credits.
  • the operator presses the top-up button and the screen of Figure 8 appears.
  • the operator chooses one of the top-up providers by pressing the relevant line number and the screen of Figure 9 appears.
  • the operator selects the denomination of the top-up required by pressing the relevant line number and this will return the required top-up to the sales screen.
  • the operator then sub-totals the transaction as normal and cashes it off.
  • the top-up slip will be issued from the till printer containing the top-up pin number.
  • Figures 10 and 11 explain the use of the drop down menu to operate a vending apparatus using the invention.
  • the operator presses the required button on the keyboard to sell products via the vending apparatus e.g. cigarettes.
  • the screen of Figure 10 appears.
  • the operator selects the relevant row by pressing the corresponding number.
  • the screen of Figure 11 then appears.
  • the operator selects the relevant column by pressing the corresponding number.
  • the required product is dispensed from the vending machine and the sale of the item is also registered on the EPOS apparatus.
  • Cigarettes are used only as an example and do not preclude the use of other products. This process is dependant on using a numeric keypad but can also utilize the use of graphic images and a touchscreen.
