Status Packet

Status package is either configured with HTTP or TCP/IP communication.

1. Status Packet via TCP/IP

Via TCP/IP, a socket is secured to transfer all message packages between merchant and ANYpay POS. In this scenario, the status packet is also sharing the same socket with the main transaction, see a code sample of StatusPackage for TCP/IP as below.

PosClientService _posClientService = new PosTcpClientService("127.0.0.1", 5002,
 statusPacket => {
  Console.WriteLine("** StatusPacket ** ");
  Console.WriteLine(
   ((int) statusPacket.CustomerInteraction) == 0 ?
   statusPacket.DeviceIsDisplaying.ToString() :
   statusPacket.CustomerInteraction.ToString()
  );
  Console.WriteLine("*****************");

  return true;
 });

The following table contains StatusPackage objects and their detailed definitions.

StatusPackage Response

Field Name	Type (C#)	Mandatory	Description
DeviceIsDisplaying	Enum	Yes	This is the human readable message which reflect the status of Ped Entry Device during the time transaction is processed
CustomerInteraction	Enum	Yes	This is the human readable message which is shown on the Ped Entry Device, with the purpose of noticing the card holder to interact with the PED i.e Insert card, Enter PIN, etc

2. Status Packet via HTTP

In order to receive status packets via HTTP, a listener must be configured in the web portal under workstation settings.

The merchant listener URL should be implemented with the backend logic as the code sample below

var statusPacketContent =
 @ "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-16'?> <
 StatusUpdate
xmlns: xsi = 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'
xmlns: xsd = 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'
xmlns = 'http://servebase.com/2009/06/pedframework' >
 <
 DeviceIsDisplaying > InsertOrSwipeCard < /DeviceIsDisplaying> <
 CustomerInteraction > None < /CustomerInteraction> <
 TransactionReference > StatusPacket < /TransactionReference> <
 Workstation > 002 < /Workstation> <
 /StatusUpdate>";

StatusUpdate statusPacket = statusPacketContent.ToStatusPacket();

Console.WriteLine(statusPacket.TransactionReference);
Console.WriteLine(statusPacket.Workstation);
Console.WriteLine(statusPacket.CustomerInteraction);
Console.WriteLine(statusPacket.DeviceIsDisplaying);

The following table contains StatusPackage objects and their detailed definitions.
