: Communication is achieved via a 20mA or 45mA current loop. Third-party controllers usually require a hardware interface or "D-Box" (Distribution Box) to convert standard serial signals (RS-232 or RS-485) into the specific current loop required by the dispenser. Data Parameters : Typical settings vary by dispenser model: Legacy (Highline-2, Euroline) : 4800 baud, 8 data bits, Even parity, 1 stop bit. Modern (Encore, SK700) : Often referred to as "Corporate baudrate" at , 8 data bits, Even parity, 1 stop bit. Data Format Euroline) : 4800 baud

The Gilbarco dispenser two-wire protocol supports various commands and responses, including: 8 data bits
