    摘要: Various systems, devices, and methods are provided for facilitating communication between a forecourt controller and a fuel dispenser. In certain aspects, a fuel controller translator is provided for translating commands transmitted between the forecourt controller and the fuel dispenser. For example, where the forecourt controller transmits commands that are compatible with the payment terminal, but not with the fuel controller, the fuel controller translator can translate the commands received from the forecourt controller into a format compatible with the fuel controller. Conversely, the fuel controller translator can translate commands received from the fuel controller into a format that is compatible with the forecourt controller.

    摘要: Various exemplary methods and devices for product dispenser electronic communication with a mobile device are provided. In general, a mobile device can request a secure connection with a product dispenser detected in the proximity of the mobile device. The mobile device can transmit request data to a network cloud server to authorize a mobile payment application executed on the mobile device, and can receive response data from the network cloud server indicating that the payment application has been authorized to process a payment for a product dispensable from the product dispenser. The mobile device and the product dispenser establish a secure connection using a secure key included in the response data, regardless of whether or not the product dispenser has established a connection with a network cloud server.
