1 INTRODUCTION
The VeriFone®Ruby2™workstation is a high-performance, reliable,
point-of-sale terminal that supports peripherals such as scanners, cash
drawers, PINpads, and customer displays. The Ruby2, with the VeriFone
Commander™Site Controller, supports payment network access, fueling
dispenser control, car wash control, and fast food transactions. Like the
Ruby SuperSystem®and the Topaz, the Ruby2 accepts and processes all
payment options, including cash, checks, credit and debit cards, coupons,
and various prepaid cards.
The Ruby2 has a 15-inch touch screen and a color display. Online help is
available to support the user and promote quick responses. The Ruby2,
including the touch screen, is configured through the Commander™
Configuration Manager, a component of the Commander Console.
The Ruby2 operates in a single- or multiple-workstation environment. It uses
the Commander Site Controller as a controller for optimum speed and
efficiency, a thermal receipt printer, and a thermal journal printer to track
sales. An on-screen receipt allows easy viewing of current transactions.
In the absence of an intranet infrastructure, the Ruby2 requires an Ethernet
router to connect to the Commander Site Controller to:
■Connect to peripherals, such as fuel dispensers, dispenser card
readers (DCRs), and car wash controllers.
■Perform on-site maintenance operations such as backups,
upgrades, restores, and reversions to previous software versions.
■Connect with the VeriFone Technical Support Center for software
downloads and diagnostics.
■Configure remotely using available internet protocols, including a
Web browser interface.
