2 | Konami Interface Setups

This article covers the Konami Interface setup using CALink.exe.

Any external process that wishes to communicate with Konami must connect to a specific KCMS (Konami Service Bus Protocol ) interface server using the HTTPS standard. The TCP/IP address, URL, and port number of the KCMS interface server will be unique per Venue.

• For an operator to be able to set up the interface with Konami, the following privileges must be enabled 
• Main Tab (General Settings) - Venue Maintenance
• All 'System Setup' Flags

• In Venue Settings you will need to set up the External Links to communicate with the Konami interface via the CALink.exe
• After opening the Venue Maintenance window, go to the External Links tab and set up the CALink sections as desired:
• CALink #1 is used for Gaming Points
• CALink #2 is used for Account Charges to a Cash/Comp Digital Wallet
• This allows for connecting to an external membership system so that Member information can be returned to Bepoz; e.g., name, number, and pricing privilege (in some instances)
• There are 2 possible links from 2 different Bepoz application programs
• The first is the Gaming Points Link; this is Client Account Link and is the link used with most Gaming Systems to obtain the Customer/Member information from the Membership/Gaming System
• The second is the Account Charge Link which is used for MultiVenue Systems to link the local Venues to one Membership database at HeadOffice
• This will allow all Account Balances and Points to be processed and returned in real-time
• For each of these links, the TCP/IP address and the port must be entered
• This is the address of the computer that is running those Bepoz applications and may not be the Bepoz server
• In the specific application, the TCP/IP address of the computer that the link connects to will also need to be set
