    There are two options: 1) Contact the manufacturer (Cash bases?) or 2) Design hardware to locate the key, move it to the correct position, insert it in the lock, turn in the correct direction with the correct degree of force and rotation, and then pull the draw open. Program it in C# On balance, (1) may be the simpler option...

    Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

          yes. I would look for the manufacturer's documentation. and/or search CodeProject. a fast search for "cash drawer" yielded this[^] for example. :)

            Ones I've seen were connected with a serial cable; it's probably as simple as setting one pin high. Should be easy enough.

                  It is a not-polite way of saying that you should do basic research: it is a acronym for "Read The F*cking Manual"

                    Check with the manufacturer / supplier and ask them for some documentation.

                    The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick Visit the Hindi forum here.

                      It's been several years since I worked on a DOS-based POS application, written in Clipper. IIRC, the control code for opening the cash drawer, which was a serial device, was a form feed. As already mentioned in this thread, that may vary from one manufacturer to another.
