4.1 Software Structure in the PSS 5000
Concept of software
structure
The system has a Linux OS with a PSS Suite running on top of it. The suite
consists of the following:
• PSS Manager – responsible for verifying that the LAM and PSS Applica-
tion are authentic, maintaining the PSS upload logs and launching/stop-
ping the LAM and PSS Application.
• PSS LAM (Legal Authority Module) – country specific module that con-
trols legally relevant features.
• PSS Application program – this contains all the forecourt controller func-
tions and interfaces. (Integrity of different parts ensured by Doms).
This architecture, with a separate LAM, makes it possible to update the appli-
cation software without having to apply for new approvals from controlling
authorities.
4.2 Operating System
Description of the
Operating System
The Linux OS provides stability and performance for the PSS 5000 software
suite. It also provides the system with very good protection against viruses.
4.3 Web Server
Description of the web
server
The embedded web server enables you to access the FCC Web Application us-
ing a PC with a standard web browser.
This provides a user-friendly graphics interface for the FCC Web Application,
where you are able to perform a multitude of tasks, such as obtaining informa-
tion about the software, installation details, operational details and service di-
agnostics. In addition to this, it provides tools to configure and monitor the
forecourt devices.
It is also an excellent entry point to the Authorities menus.
