The Hypersoft mPOS Tablet program is intended for use on tablets. However, a single Hypersoft POS installation can also be used on a tablet. However, if this tablet is to be connected to an SQL database on another device, interruptions in the WLAN can cause interference. If you have a good wireless network and can come to terms with the disadvantages, use the settings described below to help the system deal with interface problems as best as possible.
This selection is for a cash register station that is operated on a tablet. Otherwise, select Checkout.
With station type "Clou Tablet" there is a setting for WLAN monitoring in the register Peripherals, these values are then used by the CLOU cashier mode. The cashier mode receives an additional display in tablet mode:
The reception strength is indicated by red/green/yellow bars. Green is good, red is critical.
The cashier mode is covered if the WLAN performance is too low. In the further transaction the current W-LAN signal is also communicated with red, yellow and green bars.
With the station type Tablet, the administrator mode is automatically deactivated.
In case of support...
If the lock screen was displayed incorrectly, no support would be possible, since the dialog is always in the foreground and fills the screen. When you press X, a special Hypersoft internal rolling code is queried. After the input information about the server appears and the Clou cashing mode can be terminated. The server path, the computer name of the server and the determined IP are displayed. Thus the most important settings can be controlled.
