Abstract:
1. A system for outputting product information data, comprising: a LM CS, said LM CS including: a LM CS central processing unit for processing instructions and data; a LM CS memory for storing data; at least one LM CS input for receiving identification codes; and at least one LM CS output for outputting identification codes; wherein said LM CS memory stores data specifying a correlation time; wherein said LM CS is configured to output product information data including a first product information ID code to said at least one LM CS output in response to receipt via said at least one LM CS input of a first voucher ID code and a first product ID code, only if, said LM CS receives said first voucher identification code via said at least one LM CS input and said first product identification code via said at least one LM CS input within said correlation time of one another; wherein said product information data is coupon data; wherein said LM CS is configured to output coupon data including a first coupon identification code to said at least one LM CS output in response to receipt via said at least one LM CS input of a first voucher identification code and a first product identification code, only if, said LM CS receives said first voucher identification code via said at least one LM CS input and said first product identification code via said at least one LM CS input within said correlation time of one another; wherein said at least one LM CS input for receiving identification codes comprises a scanner for reading bar codes; an intelligent data router containing circuitry configured to transmit all scanned bar code data scanned by said scanner corresponding to identification codes along a first data communication path coupled to said at least one LM CS input and selectively transmitting scanned bar code data along a second data communication path; and wherein said circuitry blocks transmission of voucher identification codes along said second data communication path.
