Automated Direct Connect (ADC) Settings

If your site uses the ADC Methods of interaction in processing transactions with RTWare.net, you can use the Automated Direct Connect (ADC) Settings to customize the format for sending and receiving information. In this section you can also enter your ADC secret for use with the MD5 Hash field (consult our 3.0 Developer’s Guide for more information regarding the ADC methods).

To enter Automated Direct Connect (ADC) Settings, do the following:

• Select Automated Direct Connect (ADC) Settings.
• Click on Go.

Customizing the ADC Direct Response Settings

To customize your ADC Direct Response Settings, do the following:

• To specify whether or not you would like a delimited response, click on Delimited Response and select either YES or NO.
• Click on Default Field Separator and select your desired separator
• Click on Default Field Encapsulation Character and select either the desired encapsulation character or select None if you would like to send and receive your responses without an encapsulation character.
• If desired, you can change your ADC Secret (only necessary if using the MD5 Hash field) by entering your current ADC Secret, then providing your New Secret and providing it again in Retype New Secret.
• To cancel the changes made, click on Cancel.
• To save the changes, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on Submit .

Note: The MD5 Hash field is part of an extra security feature available when using the ADC methods for transaction processing. The use of this feature is not mandatory, and using your payment processing system without it will not affect the security of your transaction processing.
