Abandoned terminals

## Abandoned Terminals

When a terminal is left behind during a shopping trip and the Inactivity time/out passed then the terminal will send an inactive message (MQTT) to a topic on the broker. When an Attendant is subscribed to that topic he will receive that message in the "Inactive Terminals" tab. When the customer starts scanning again, or if the terminal is returned in the ScannerWall then the terminal becomes active again and an active message is sent to the broker. In case the terminal was not found before the battery was dead the terminal remains "inactive" (on the broker) until it is returned in the ScannerWall. At the moment the app starts he will "activate" himself.

2 parameters are added (see below). Configuration can be found at Selfscan Parameters
