29.Sh NAME
30.Nm ptcd
31.Nd support for the Protech PS3100 cash drawer port
32.Sh SYNOPSIS
33.Cd "ptcd* at isa? port 0x48d"
34.Cd "gpio* at ptcd?"
35.Sh DESCRIPTION
36The
37.Nm
38driver controls the cash drawer port of the Protech PS3100 point of sale
39terminal using the GPIO subsystem.
40.Pp
41.Nm
42provides a GPIO device with two pins: pin 0 is used to control the cash drawer
43while pin 1 can be used to read the current state of the sense input pin.
44A logical 0 means the cash drawer is closed, a logical 1 means the cash drawer
45is open.
46.Pp
47To open the cash drawer, set pin 0 to logical 1 for a short period
48of time (e.g. < 1 sec) and then reset the pin to logical 0.

65As it is not possible to detect the hardware at runtime, this driver, when
66enabled, will always attach.
67Only enable it in your kernel configuration if you have the proper hardware.
