PTS Controller over Fuel Dispensers & ATG Systems for Petrol Stations PURPOSE PTS controller over fuel dispensers and ATG (automatic tank gauge) systems for petrol stations serves as a protocols converter, it allows conversion of proprietary communication protocols of dispensers and ATG systems to a single communication protocol of PTS controller. Thus using a single communication protocol of PTS controller a control system (POS system, cash register, payment terminal) is able to provide control over any of the supported dispensers and ATG systems in exactly the same way . '
A work for a developer of the control system is completely simplified - he does not need to implement a great variety of the communication protocols in the control system (which are difficult to get from manufacturers and difficult to implement), he needs to implement only protocol of PTS controller and PTS fuel pump controller will itself undertake conversion of UniPump protocol to propritary communication protocols of dispensers and ATG systems. Thus time required for development of the control system is sufficiently reduced.
