3.0 Comparison with SureOne
The SurePOS 100 Point of Sale Terminal is an electrical and mechanical redesign of the 4614 SureOne P80/P81.
The following information is intended to assist SureOne users with the transition to the SurePOS 100.
Most external I/O devices and programming interfaces are compatible between the two products.
Exceptions are noted below.
SurePOS 100 does not:
• support a journal take up kit.
• enable fiscalization. A SurePOS 100-based fiscal solution uses the printerless model with a locally
sourced fiscal printer.
• Offer a Floppy disk drive.
• Offer a Parallel port
• Have a printer cover open sensor.
SurePOS 100 uses a standard IBM RSS RS-232 2x20 VFD option—the SureONE VFD is not compatible.
The SureOne VFD is not electrically compatible with SurePOS 100. There is no available port.
The programming interface of the standard 2x20 used with SurePOS 100 is similar in many respects to the
SureOne interface. Key areas of difference are in selection of code pages and in establishing User-defined
characters.
SurePOS 100 supports a 3 track MSR.
MSR error reporting is improved. See the SurePOS 100 Keyboard Tech Ref.
Minor differences in MSR scan codes exist between SurePOS 100 and SureONE. See the SurePOS 100
Keyboard Tech Ref.
The SurePOS100 keyboard uses the same key-switch technology as IBM’s Point of Sale Keyboard line.
