A terminal for transmitting and storing cash and / or cash data using payment cards of a cash register machine to a fiscal data operator server may include an audio emitter 11 (HPS12F module) connected to the sixth output of microcontroller 2.

The battery of real-time clocks can be made not only lithium, but also of a different type.

On the housing 1 can be made protruding platform 15, intended for applying glue for attachment to a cash register machine.

The power supply of the terminal for the transfer and storage of data on cash payments and / or settlements using payment cards of a cash register machine to the fiscal data operator's server is carried out from an external DC voltage source with the following parameters:

a) when connecting a DC voltage source to the power connector 4:

- rated input voltage of 12 volts;

- allowable change in input voltage from 4.7 volts to 15 volts;

b) when connecting a DC voltage source to connector 12, intended for connection with a cash register machine with internal power supply:

- rated input voltage of 5 volts;

- permissible changes in the input voltage: minus 10%, plus 10% of the rated voltage.

For the purpose of power supply, the terminal was simultaneously connected for transferring and storing cash cash and / or payment data using payment cards of a cash register machine to the fiscal operator’s server to two DC voltage sources connected to power supply connector 4 and connector 12, intended for connecting to a cash register with an internal voltage.

The Wi-Fi module 8 is priority over the cellular communication module 9 in the case of installing both modules and automatically arranges a connection with the fiscal data operator server.

Using a modern element base and its compact placement in the form of a four-layer printed circuit board in a portable case allows you to perform a terminal with small dimensions and low weight.

A terminal for transmitting and storing cash and / or cash data using payment cards of a cash register machine to a fiscal operator’s server is installed inside the cash register machine instead of end-to-end EKLZ with the electronic unit of the cash register machine.

A terminal for transmitting and storing data on cash payments and / or payments using payment cards of a cash register machine to a server of a fiscal data operator operates as follows.

The principle of operation of the terminal for transmitting and storing data on cash settlements and / or settlements using payment cards is that microcontroller 2, operating under software control, performs the algorithmic tasks of the nodes in which it is involved, organizes the interaction of these nodes and It implements the functions of assigning a terminal for the transfer and storage of data on cash cash settlements and / or settlements using payment cards.

Power is supplied to the converter 3 of the supply voltage through the power connector 4 and through the connector 12, intended for connection with a cash register. Depending on the operating conditions of the terminal, for transmitting and storing data on cash payments and / or payments using payment cards, the supply voltage converter 3 operates either from the power supply connector 4 or through the connector 12, intended for connection to a cash register machine. In the event of a power failure or undervoltage, the power supply converter 3 will continuously switch to another power source.

When performing operations on a cash register machine, through connector 12, designed to connect to a cash register machine, data on cash settlements and / or settlements using payment cards by ECLZ commands is transmitted to the terminal for transferring and storing data on cash settlements and / or payments using payment cards.

The terminal for transmitting and storing data on cash payments and / or settlements using payment cards starts to establish a connection with the fiscal data operator’s server and ensures that the check transaction data is sent directly to the Internet via the Wi-Fi module 8 or via the cellular communication module 9 fiscal data operator. After that, it receives, within the time of a cash transaction, a unique code for each check from the fiscal operator’s server and transfers it to the cash register machine to print this unique check code on the cash receipt, and also ensures the work of the cash register machine when the connection with the operator is temporarily disconnected fiscal data.

The cellular communication module 9 is activated if there is no Internet connection via the Wi-Fi module 8 and uses a 10 SIM card switch with two SIM card holders 13 and 14 with installed SIM cards and transmits data on cash payments and / or settlements using payment cards through any of the working SIM-cards. In the absence or unsatisfactory quality of communication on one of the SIM cards, they automatically switch to work on the second SIM card.

If the fiscal data operator’s server is temporarily unavailable, data on cash settlements and / or settlements using payment cards are stored in flash memory 5 of the data storage and the number of each cash receipt is generated with the subsequent direction when reconnecting the data on cash settlements and / or settlements using payment cards and the number of each cashier's check to the server of the fiscal data operator. Flash memory 5 data storage allows multiple rewriting of data (at least 10,000 times) and an unlimited number of reads. Provides access to flash memory 5 data storage on any of the ports.

Real-time clock 6 generates and stores the values of time and date samples with a time count of 0.0001 seconds. It provides backup power to the circuit for generating time and date values from the built-in lithium battery with a service life of at least 5 years or from another battery.

The terminal for transmitting and storing data on cash and / or payment using payment cards from a cash register machine to the server of the fiscal data operator operates as a part of the cash register machine completely and does not require any participation from the cashier operator with the exception of a failure when the operator server checks the fiscal data of the identifier of the cash register machine (possible with unstable communication) and the requirement from the operator's server of fiscal data to close the current th shift.

The sound emitter 11 gives sound signals about the beginning and end of operations carried out by the terminal for transmitting and storing data on cash payments and / or settlements using payment cards from a cash register to the server of the fiscal data operator.

The terminal for transmitting and storing data on cash and / or settlements using payment cards from a cash register machine to a fiscal data operator server may have a building 1 on which a protruding platform 15 is provided for applying glue for attachment to a cash register a machine that provides reliable installation of a terminal for the transfer and storage of data on cash payments and / or payments using payment cards from a cash register machine to the operator’s server data in the cash register.
