The Comm2A.exe application ensures communication between PC and following ECR types: Euro - 1000M/T, Euro - 2000M/T/TE Alpha and Euro - 500T/TX Handy. It is 32-bit Windows application for Windows 95/98/2000/NT/XP. The application allows to transfer all programmed data, including on-line sales from ECR to PC and vice versa, including all reports and other read-only information.
There are three basic forms how to use Comm2A. Each of these forms use other command line arguments.
Use with configuration

Comm2A has built country detection, but this depends from settings in operation system and not all operating systems support this feature. The second way how to set national version and do not use command line parameter is installing only one language pack. If there is only one language pack installed, Comm2A change to this specific national version.
National version set priority is:
command line (the only safe method)
language pack
auto-detection from OS
This parameter switches the application to text mode. This means that all data will be read from the text file and written into a text file.
For auto-detection this parameter is used to display detected
type of ECR (otherwise is detected type only stored in
err_file).
nSets up the communication port number, where
n is communication port number within
1-255.
nnnnSets up the communication speed, where
nnnn is speed, either 9600 or 38400.
nnSets up the ECR type, where the
nn is ID number of
particular ECR.
nnSets up the ECR number (identification number in a "ECR
network"), where nn is number within
1–99.
nnnSets up the operation, where nnn is the
operation ID number.
nnnSets up the first transferred item (parameter is not compulsory for all operations).
nnnSets up the number of transferred items (parameter is not compulsory for all operations).
For send text operations (/t) is available auto detection of input file lines.
file*1Sets up the position*2 of configuration file.
In case that the configuration file is not specified, the application test at first the actual directory for the configuration file, then application directory and if the cfg file is not found then the default path is used.
The default path to the configuration file is the “Windows” directory (defaults to “C:\WINDOWS” for Windows 95/98/ME/XP and to “C:\WINNT” for Windows NT/2000; it also could be something totally different, this depends on the OS configuration).
file*1Sets up the “error” file position*2. "Error file" = file where operation results are logged.
file*1Sets up the “check” file position*2. "Run file" = file that will be erased after the application ends (can be used to determine if the application is running; the file needs to be created explicitly, it is not created by default).
file*1Sets up the position*2 of data file.
ssssssSetting the configuration string of the communication library,
where ssssss is the configuration
string.
The string is comprised of individual parameters separated by ';' (semicolon) characters. Parameters could contains also a numeric, or string value if needed. Such parameter is then written as “parameter=value”.
Table 1.2. Supported parameters (marked values in are automatically set during initialisation)
| parameter name(s) | description |
|---|---|
| modem+ / modem- | sets up default settings for modem
communication. modem+ changes
break time for 9600 Baud to 1s and
timeout to 6s.
modem- changes break time for
9600 Baud to 20ms and timeout
to 5s. |
modemtime=time | sets the modem answer time-out for dialling in milliseconds (60 s) |
| 485+ / 485- | sets up the usage/disusage of flow control necessary for RS-485 converters |
485wait=time | sets up the time space between the command that switches the converter and actual start of transmission. Time is specified in microseconds. (Warning: not all PCs support measuring time in microseconds. In this case, the time will be rounded up to nearest whole millisecond) (1 microsecond) |
485coef=coefficient | sets up the coefficient for switching the 485 converter into state for receiving data. The coefficient is in fact time in which the PC will transmit 1,000 bytes via the communication port divided by the time necessary to send one bit. To transmit one byte, it is necessary to transmit ten bits (start bit, eight data bits and a stop bit) and also account for the time between individual bytes. |
timeout=time | sets up the time of maximum ECR answer time-out in milliseconds (5s) (changed by modem+/- parameter) |
break=time | sets up wait time for start communication after break signal in milliseconds (20ms / 1s) (changed by modem+/- parameter) |
break384=time | same as break, only
for speed of 38 400 Baud
(20ms) |
break96=time | same as break, only
for speed of 9 600 Baud (1s)
(changed by modem+/-
parameter) |
| warning+ / warning / warning- | Specifies “warning mode”. “+” means – all warnings ends communication. “-” means – no warning ends communication. Without “+”/“-” means programming warnings ends communication (e. g. warning while programming PLUs) |
wait_sn=time | “n” is number from
1 to 3 and time is delay in milliseconds. Meaning of
n is: 1 – delay time in
wait loop before change state to send (for 485), 2 =
time before send of packet, 3 = time after send of
packet (after send command to 485 for receive).
Default values: s1 = 0, s2 = 0, s3 = 0. |
wait_rn=time | “n” is number from
1 to 3 and time is delay in milliseconds. Meaning of
n is: 1 – not
used from version 4.30, 2 = wait time in
"reading data from COM port loop",
3 = wait time in "wait for read data delay
loop". Default values: r1 = 1, r2 = 1, s3 =
0. |
decimal=character | This parameter allow the user to select decimal separator for numbers. Standard value of decimal separator is dot. This configuration is useful if there is a third party software (e. g. MS excel™, OOo Calc™) and this software requires decimal comma (depending on operation system settings) and not decimal dot. This character will be used for both sides conversion (binary->text and text->binary). Decimal separator can be only one character long. If there is given more than one character, then only the first character will be used. |
tttttttSets up the phone number; used only if the library has to create the modem connection.
nnnnSets up the wait time (in ms) between end of dialing and start of communication. This time is necessary for some modems. Default time is 500 ms.
drmSets display and rounding decimal places and method. Meaningful only for text conversions. Meaning of numbers is:
d - number of decimal places
r - number of places to
round
m - rounding method
0 - to nearest integer,
1 - always up,
2 - always down,
3 - quarter rounding.
For reading data from PLU is meaningful only decimal places for display. Rounding of numbers is used only when are data transferred to ECR.
timeTime wait time between two online sale commands in milliseconds.
Use this parameter to launch auto-detection of connected ECR.
Use of parameters /com:n
and/or /speed:nnnn limits
the detection to one COM port and/or one communication speed. Use
parameter /t to display found ECR also on the
screen.
In this mode it is possible to receive sales data from ECR in "ECR --> PC ONLINE mode". Program Comm2A will be running until the interruption of user. It is possible to save received data in text and in binary form. In binary mode will be each received sales data stored in a separate file. Name of this file consist of given file name and actual date and time on PC. In text mode (parameter /t) will be each sale stored in one data file. Data are not erased.In this mode is only one file. Each new sale is written at the end the actual file. Detailed description about saved ONLINE data is in Chapter 5, Data description for "ECR --> PC ONLINE mode".
This parameter changes the separator between first and second quantity in the text mode
in the "ECR --> PC ONLINE
mode" from standard separator to "/" or
"*" (depends on actual ECR settings).
*1: file is the file
name (can also contain the path, relative or absolute); if
the file and/or path contain spaces, it is necessary to enclose such file
name/path in quotes (“file name”).
*2: position = file name (and path).
1st row contains serial port settings

numPLU: 1000, 2100, 2400, 6000, 9000 or 10000
(according to ECR type)
numDPT: 8, 30 (according to ECR
type)
numCashiers: 6 (according to national

For all other commands are these values ignored. Also the value of last number (data length) is ignored.
Range select means setting of parameters ItemsCount and
FirstItemIndex
in configuration file and/or use of
parameters /start:nnn
and /len:nnn
in command line.
If the command does not require range select then the values ItemsCount and
FirstItemIndex
will be ignored. These values in configuration
file can be replaced by values from command line (use /start:nnn
as replacement for FirstItemIndex
and /len:nnn
as replacement for ItemsCount).
For the values selecting active range are established these rules:
ItemsCount
and FirstItemIndex
are always of type WORD
ItemsCount
is in range from 1 to
"max_PLU_count".
FirstItemIndex
is in range from 0 to "max_PLU_count -
1".
Command line parameters have higher priority than configuration file parameters.
In text mode it is possible to use auto-detection of input file length and entering start and length parameters is not necessary (but they have higher priority than auto-detection parameters, if are given in command line).
For Receiving PC journal, Text journal or PLU report with non zero sale are configuration file parameters ignored and will be used auto-detect method to get the actual range for downloading these reports.
For receiving programmed PLUs and full PLU report (except PLU with non zero sale) it is always necessary to select the range.
For DWORD range select can be used auto-detection (it is not necessary to enter these values).
The "Error file" contains result of performed operation.

In text mode is necessary to separate values from each other. For separating these values are used two sorts of separators.
ItemSeparator. is used to separate two values for the same logical block,
like PLU name and PLU
price. In Comm2A is this separator represented by
character ';' (semicolon).
LineSeparator. is used to separate two logical block of the same meaning
(in most cases). This separator is represented as
new line (CR + LF = 0x0D,
0x0A).
Table 2.1. Definition of data types
| type name | length (in bytes) | description |
|---|---|---|
| BYTE | 1 | unsigned number (integer) |
| WORD | 2 | unsigned number (integer), little endian (low byte, high byte) |
| DWORD | 4 | unsigned number (integer), little endian (lowest byte first, highest byte last) |
| N6 | 6 | signed integer, little endian. Low (first) 47 bits are used for unsigned part of number and last bit is used to determine positive (clear (set to 0)) or negative (set to 1) value. See example of 6 byte integer number. |
| char | 1 | signed integer |
| int | 2 | signed integer, little endian (low byte, high byte) |
| long | 4 | signed integer, little endian (lowest byte first, highest byte last) |
| double | 8 | real number. (compatible with type double
in Borland C++ Builder and MS Visual C++
). If type extension is
used then decimal places are not used. |
| string | various | Text string. Maximal length depends from data type (reserved
length = end byte - start byte + 1). If actual string
length is less than the reserved length, then the string is null
terminated. After string termination (character 0x00)
should be only null characters (0x00). See character map for correct interpreting
of characters. |
n*char | n | String with exact length n bytes. See character map for correct interpreting
of characters. (Most of these types are only numerical
values) |
| BARCODE | various | bar-code stored in compressed BCD form (two numbers on each byte). If the count of numbers is odd, then on the first byte must be the top half of byte be set to zero. |
Table 2.2. Extension of definition of numerical data types
Decimal numbers are represented as whole numbers. Original value is multiplied (for encoding) or divided (for decoding) by number 1 (0 places), 10 (1 place), 100 (2 places), 1000 (3 places), according to number of places we want to use.

Data contains information about PLUs.
Programming of stock state in ECR has own rules. These rules are in following text marked as *stock and means final state of PLU stock after programming.
If transmitted stock value is more than 1 000 000 000 then the difference of transmitted value and 1 000 000 000 is added to stock value in ECR.
Example 3.3. Adding PLU stock
PLU stock value in ECR is 50. Transmitted value is 1 000 000 050. Data are accepted to ECR and follow operation is done: New stock value = 50 {primal stock} + (1 000 000 050 {transmitted value} - 1 000 000 000) = 100.
If new stock value could be more than 109 – PLU stock in ECR will be not changed.
If transmitted stock value is less than -1 000 000 000 then the difference of absolute value of transmitted data and 1 000 000 000 stock value is deducted in ECR
Example 3.4. Subtracting PLU stock
PLU stock value in ECR is 45. Transmitted value is -1 000 000 030. Data are accepted to ECR and follow operation is done: New stock value = 45 {primal stock} - (1 000 000 030 {transmitted value} - 1 000 000 000) = 15.
If new stock value could be less than 0 – PLU stock in ECR will be not changed.

| 5 | Payment |
| 6 | PLU void |
Conditions for ON LINE mode calling are: ECR in R or T mode. Started sale through ECR keyboard has to be finished before ON LINE communication start. Keyboard is not functional instead of CLEAR key, which cannot be used for ON LINE mode cancelling. It is necessary to finish sale through ECR keyboard after ON LINE mode has been cancelled. Then next ON LINE transport can be called. PC ON LINE is also cancelled with ECR power off. Wholesale through ON LINE mode (command 1, 2 and index 0) is printed in PLU report and is signed with “PC - ON LINE” text.
Description of data used in commands 1 (PLU sale), 2 (PLU refund) and 6 (PLU void).
| Byte(s) | Meaning | type | range | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0–13 | PLU name (or text) | string | characters | ||

| 21-24 | quantity | DWORD(#) | <1, 9 999 999> | ||
| 25-26 | index*2 | WORD | <0, MaxPLU>*2 |
*1: Unit number from 0 to 7 means sale unit. Number 8 means that actual PLU will be sold as descriptive one (index for PLU database of ECR is 0), In this case only PLU name is important and other bytes are ignored
*2: index has different meaning for each of command type
for command 1 (PLU sale) and 2 (PLU refund)
index = 0 – PLU will be sold – PLU name, sale
unit, DPT and VAT assignment, price and quantity will be used
during the sale
index = 1-MaxPLU – PLU with this index will
be sold from PLU database of ECR. PLU name and flags are used
from PLU database. Price is used from packet (if more then 0) or
from PLU database of ECR if it is zero, quantity is used from
packet.
For command 6 (PLU void)
index = 0 – means - void will be done
immediately – last PLU will be void: bytes 0–24 are
ignored.
index > 0 – means – index for buffer of
sold PLU-s – PLU with this index will be void: if PLU was sold
using command 1:
index = 0 – assignments of quantity, DPT
and VAT, price are controlled with PLU from buffer of sold
PLU. PLU name, and unit sale are not controlled but should
be the same as void PLU.
index = 1-MaxPLU – quantity and price
(if more then zero) is controlled with PLU
from buffer of sold PLU-s.
Example 3.5. Online sale and void
| Operation (command) | Content of buffer of sold PLU | Number of PLU-s in buffer | Result | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Indexes in buffer of sold PLU | Content | |||||||
| PLU 1 sale (1) | 1. | PLU 1 | 1 | OK | ||||
| PLU 2 sale (1) |

| 2 | OK | ||||
PLU 1 voiding (6) index = 1 | 1. | PLU 2 | 1 | OK | ||||
| Descriptive PLU 3 sale (1) | 1. | PLU 2 | 1 | OK | ||||
PLU 2 voiding (6) index = 2 | 1. | PLU 2 | 1 | Err | ||||
PLU 2 voiding (6) index = 1 | empty | 0 | OK | |||||
| PLU 4 sale (1) | 1. | PLU 4 | 1 | OK | ||||
As we can see in example, voiding operation decrement and relocate content of buffer in ECR and descriptive PLU-s are not saved in buffer.
In commands 3 (Finish sale) and 4 (Finish PC ONLINE communication) are data ignored, but should contain data in valid range (for example 0x00 in whole data area).
Finish sale: same function like TOTAL key pressing in sale mode.
Finish PC ONLINE communication: only ends PC ONLINE communication. Bill is open and it is not possible to end sale from PC. Next step must be done on ECR (sale, end of sale...).

Data types are the same as in the first part of the protocol. There is only one difference in extension of types (primary and secondary currency).
Table 5.1. Extension of definition of numerical data types for ECR ON-LINE mode
Decimal numbers are represented as whole numbers. Original value is multiplied (for encoding) or divided (for decoding) by number 1 (0 places), 10 (1 place), 100 (2 places), 1000 (3 places), according to number of places we want to use.
For each sale will be created a new data file. In file name of this data file will be added actual time on PC. Data will be stored in this format:
Table 5.2. Data storing method for "ECR --> PC ONLINE mode"
| length in bytes | description/meaning |
|---|---|
| 2 | header length = 6 bytes |
| header length (always 6 bytes) | header data |
