TerminalConnectionDetails

Connection details to access the terminal

Declaration

public IPEndPoint TerminalConnectionDetails { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.Net.IPEndPoint

Remarks

The TerminalConnectionDetails property specifies the network address and port of the terminal. At time of writing the terminal only supports IPv4 connections.

Note: The default port for EPAS is 3000. This can be changed in the terminal, but there is usually no reason to do so.

UseKeepAlive

Indicates if a network keepalive message should be sent regularly. This is useful on reliable network connections, since the terminal will detect a break in these messages and will know that the ECR has gone offline. This allows the terminal to handle the failure gracefully.

Declaration

public bool UseKeepAlive { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.Boolean	The default is `false`

Remarks

If the UseKeepAlive method is true then the EPAS client library will ensure a steady stream of packets are sent to the terminal during idle times. This will allow the terminal to know that the ECR is still alive and connected.
