  • Page 120: Pos Configuration

    POS Configuration When the POS device transmits ASCII data, the NVR can record without any interface devices. (ex., AVE device – VSSI Pro) However if the POS device is sending data other than ASCII protocol, it is recommended to use the AVE interface device. For example, the AVE’s VSSI –PRO device is point to point, (ASCII standard protocol) but if the user would like to use multiple POS with the NVR, it is needed to use AVE’s VSI –PRO Max (VSI-ADD) interface.
  • Page 121 Typical Configuration using AVE interface device for multi-POS Black: Video from the camera goes to NVR. Red: Data from each VSI-PRO-MAX is daisy chained to a master VSI-PRO-MAX or Hydra, this data is then consolidated and transmitted to a compatible NVR in an addressable format. Optional: The optional EX function gives you 2 hard alarm outputs to trigger alarming VCR’s, Quads, or other alarming devices for Exception reporting allowing easy review of exceptional sales, or Instant reviewing on NVR’s.
