UnifiedPOS is a retailer-driven initiative to
combine two existing device interface standards under one specification
to allow retailers freedom of choice in the selection of Point of
Service devices. (See Relationships for more
details.) Version 1.12 has been approved by the ARTS
Board and is now the current standard.
Developed
by a joint team of retailer and industry technical experts following
published
policies and procedures, UnifiedPOS provides a consistent and exact
framework for programming point of sales devices that is platform
independent and vendor neutral.
