After you deploy Parlay X Terminal Location over
Parlay,
you can use the TWSS Administration Console to
change the deployment configuration properties for the Web service
and related Service Platform components.
Terminal Location enables applications to send Web services requests
requesting the Terminal Location services defined by the Parlay X
2.1 specification and to register for Terminal Location notifications.
Terminal Location offers a simple Web services API that adapts the
Parlay X 2.1 API to the Parlay API. The Parlay Connector is responsible
for making and managing this connection, as well as CORBA calls to
the database.

SOAP header, then the Web service uses the values that are defined
in the TWSS Administration Console.
