Check all printers to make sure they are all turned on, have plenty of paper, and have no red error light on the top of the printer near the blue power light. If the printer is turned off, turn it on with the power switch located at the front of the printer. If you are running low on paper. Open the top of the printer, remove any leftover spindle if present. And place a new roll of paper in the printer. Close the top and preform a power cycle on the printer. If there is a red error light showing on the top of the printer, open the printer and make sure there is plenty of paper in it. Close the printer and preform a power cycle. If the error light is still present, the paper sensors might be dirty. To clean, use a can of compressed air and spray the entire inside of the printer out as well as possible. Replace the paper, close the printer, and preform one more power cycle.

Now you want to open the folder table_bg. You will see all the different image files for table background images. Select whichever image you like. Now, you need to enter the number of tables. The number will determine how big of a grid you will have for your layout. If you look to the bottom of the screen you will see a key for the different numbers of tables and their corresponding grid size. Management ⟶ Login ⟶ System Settings Table ⟶ Table Now you have to add the tables. From Management, select “System Settings”, then select “Table” then you need to select the button “Table” once more.

How can I add items to my menu?

Management ⟶ Configure Item ⟶ Add New Item To add an item you have to log in to the management screen. Then you select “Configure Item”. Then, you select “Add New Item”. First is the item number. This number is arbitrary, but every item has to have a unique number in order for the POS to store it. Any number will do. We like to use at least 5 digits. Then it asks you for the group. If you are adding an item to a group that already exists, you would type in the group you wish to add the new item to. Or, if you would like to make a new group type the name of the new group to be created and the POS will automatically make that group for you. Then it asks you for the sub group. A sub-group is another way of further organizing your items in a group. Take drinks for example. You can have a group of beverages, then the sub groups would be something like beer, wine, and soft drinks. If you do not need to have subgroups then you simply leave that field blank. Then it asks for the item name, type that info. Then you are asked for the price. Enter the price. Then you are asked for the cost price, that would be the final cost of this item to be made, this info is used for reporting and inventory purposes. Then, you are ask for the search id. Again, this is another arbitrary number that has to be there. Any number you like, then hit next. Now you see a lot of buttons, the only ones you should be concerned about are the modifiers and cook options. In the “Cook Option” section, you can set the item to print to a specific kitchen printer or not print to the kitchen printers at all. If you don’t want it to print to the cook select Cook Options, then set Cook Printer and Cook Screen to NONE. Modifiers are things like… let’s say guacamole, sour cream, extra tortillas, anything extra or any choice that will come with the item. Now modify 1 and 4 do not add an extra charge. And modify 2 and 3 can add an extra charge on top of the base price of the item. Now on the modify screens it will ask you if you want the modifier to be Forced, Modify, or Never. Forced means every time you ring up the item it will ask you if you want to add these modifiers to the item, Modify means that you will only be asked to add the modifiers when you hit the modify button on the left hand side of the ordering screen. And never means just that, you will never be asked to add that modifier. Then you have to put the threshold. The threshold is the maximum number of modifiers you can select on the item. Say you have ten modifiers but the customer can only select two from the list. Then you would set the threshold to 2. Then it asks for LEVEL. LEVEL is where you name the modifier, i.e.: Sour cream, Guacamole, Extra Tortillas. When adding modifiers in modify 2 and 3 it asks you for the price. This is the extra price on top of the base price. So if you wanted to charge .50 for sour cream, you simply put .5
