Publication number: 20240109765Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure include a method including receiving, by a data processor of a fuel dispenser, first data characterizing one or more applications to be displayed via a display of the fuel dispenser during a first application session. The first data including a configuration file including an application programming interface (API) uniform resource locator (URL) associated with a first remote server from which modified application data associated with the one or more applications may be received by the data processor by accessing the API URL. Embodiments may also include displaying, based on the first data, a first instance of at least one application in at least one display frame of the display, the at least one application configured to receive user inputs from a user of the fuel dispenser. Related apparatus, systems, and articles are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: John Joseph Morris, Jerzy Zyglowicz, Rohith Chinnaswamy, Scott R.

Publication number: 20240111552Abstract: Various exemplary devices, systems, and methods for dynamic management of display content are provided. In general, a terminal can be configured to output media to a user of the terminal, such as by showing media on a display of the terminal, which can be a fuel dispenser or other type of terminal. In an exemplary implementation, the terminal is configured to receive media information from a remote system that is located remotely from a site that includes the terminal. The media output by the terminal is based on the received media information but is configured to be customized locally before being output by the terminal. The local customization is configured to dynamically configure the media information to include at least one customized aspect specific to the terminal and/or to the site at which the terminal is located.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: John Joseph Morris, Dan Seymour, Meer Parekh, Scott R. Negley, III, Anand Krishna, Rohith Chinnaswamy

Patent number: 11615662Abstract: In general, a smart door alarm and locking mechanism and methods for use thereof are provided for maintaining security while providing ease of access to a fuel dispenser. In an exemplary embodiment, the methods and devices are used in fuel dispensing devices for providing fuel to a vehicle. However, the methods and devices can be utilized in any device having a payment system where security and access are both required. In some embodiments, the described methods and systems include a door alarm and door lock kit that allow unlocking one or more doors in a housing of a fuel dispenser and simultaneously disabling or de-activating respective door alarm sensor(s). In a similar manner, the door can be locked and the door alarm sensor activated or re-activated substantially simultaneously.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2021Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: Wayne Fueling Systems LLCInventors: Henry Fieglein, Richard Carlsson, Scott R.

Patent number: 11180359Abstract: Fuel dispensers, systems and methods are provided for electronically transmitting data characterizing fueling transactions in a fueling environment, and in particular from a fuel dispenser. In an exemplary embodiment, a fuel dispenser is provided having a printer module that can perform operations that enable any one or more of replacing a printer, providing a user with a printed transaction record at a remote location, and/or provide the user with an electronic transaction record. The application of the printer module can facilitate providing a user with a printed and/or electronic transaction record, while minimizing, or eliminating, changes to standard communication protocol associated with components of a payment terminal that can deliver formatted transaction data to a typical printer.Type: GrantFiled: January 2, 2020Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: Wayne Fueling Systems LLCInventors: Henry Fieglein, Scott R.
