This Server Suite family product is designed as a host server for the Papyrus family terminals. The function of the Terminal Server is to eliminate the work needed for programming the data collection terminal. With its user-friendly window-based GUI interface, it allows you to define and configure the rules of any data collection process without having to write a single line of code.

By classifying the data elements into the 2 data type, Attribute and Quantitative, and defining the definition for each of these data elements, data that is collected by the terminal during the data collection process will be taken care by the server according to these rules and definitions.

Message prompting and sequence of the data collection steps are also taken care by the server according to the table preset into the system during the configuration.

The Terminal Server can also handle the digital and analog input/output according to the way you configured. It allows you to monitor and control the state of these I/O with trigger and alert as well as masking and conditioning.

Data to and from the serial interface of the terminal will also be managed by the host whether it is attached to the barcode scanner, weighing scale or a printer. Flow control or handshake of these kind of devices can be handled simply by setting up the port at centralize host server.

When working together with the other Server Suite family, the flow of this data will be exchanged as a form of transaction, packed as packets of message that carry the user define transaction code. These messages are then transported and processed by the Transaction Server that passes on the request to the Application Server or Gateway Server to further process them and return the result set back to the Terminal Server that controls the Papyrus terminal.
