Abstract

In all operations with money involving electronic components or human beings, security is first and the users need to know that the money is being managed in a good way. In the case of the electronic purse Futura 3000 the load terminal described in this document have been designed to perform all the security requests and user interaction designed by the Futura 3000 project. The project developed in this document is the Futura 3000 electronic purse load terminal implemented using a point of sale terminal Quisar 500-I and designed for the use in all Central America. Quisar 500-I was selected to develop the load terminal Futura 3000 because it has all the basic hardware parts, as a screen LCD, keyboard with function keys, magnetic band reader, IC card reader and modem. To get all these elements to a load terminal of the Futura 3000 project, a program was designed, programmed, and tested to control the terminal with the goal that the user can do all the available operations (load, download, consults and currency conversion) in a safe and easy way. The designed program has the purpose to do an effective control over the data entry by the user, the hardware components, and the telephone communications with the bank.
