Patent number: 7827063Abstract: A point of sale device includes a point of sale functional component, such as, for example, a display, an input device, a printer, scales, a card reader, or other. An interface is connected to the component, through a standard port of the component. The interface includes a radio frequency communications function. The interface communicates information regarding the component over a wireless communication network. The wireless communication network connects to a maintenance gateway for the device, either via the network, other networks, or by other communicative connection. The device can be monitored and maintained by the maintenance gateway, and the maintenance gateway can be located at a remote location from the device. The interface can also include cooling elements and controls for the device and/or the interface.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2004Date of Patent: November 2, 2010Assignee: DigiPoS Store Solutions Group LimitedInventors: Geoffrey Girdler, Graham Worsfold, David Halyk, Arthur Sullivan

Patent number: 7751540Abstract: A telemetry system includes at least one telemetry communication device for handling security event information available to the telemetry communication device. The system also includes a central host device, and an “always on” network, such as the Internet, communicatively connected to the telemetry communication device and the central host device, for communications between the telemetry communication device and the central host device. Encryption key information is exchanged between the central host device and the telemetry communication device, via a secure path, such as a cellular telephone call between the devices wherein identity and authentication can be ensured by Calling Line Identity information, or other secure exchange. Telemetry information is communicated by the telemetry communication device and the central host device over the “always on” network, in encrypted format according to the particular encryption keys exchanged.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2007Date of Patent: July 6, 2010Assignee: Emizon Group Ltd.Inventors: Andrew Whitfield, Gordon Smythe, Geoffrey Girdler
