5. MiniSmart II Commands

For a full listing of MiniSmart II commands, see the MiniSmart II Command Reference, available on the ID TECH Knowledge Base.

6. Universal SDK and USDK Demo App

ID TECH’s Universal SDK supports MiniSmart II development in C# on Windows and Java on Android. Visit the Universal SDK page for free access to the SDK of choice. ID TECH recommends the use of these SDKs to achieve rapid integration of MiniSmart II with tablets, POS systems, mobile devices, electronic cash registers, and more.

The Universal SDK is designed to provide easy high-level access to virtually all MiniSmart II functionalities while eliminating the need to use low-level firmware commands. The SDK’s convenience objects, and rich APIs greatly facilitate exceptional processing, data parsing, and response-code interpretation. As a result, sophisticated integrations are achieved relatively quickly.

The Universal SDK comes with sample code and ample documentation. It also comes with a Universal Demo app (for Windows) that facilitates troubleshooting, terminal-configuration testing, and data validation. The USDK Demo app is available for download on the ID TECH Knowledge Base.
