The Pole Display tab is used to configure Pole Display hardware for use with the POS system. You can configure the settings for all workstations provided the hardware and settings are EXACTLY the same. If that is not the case, configure each workstation separately.
To configure the settings for all of your POS workstations, do not select in the Configure Single Workstation check box.
To configure each workstation separately, select the Configure Single Workstation check box and then select the name of the workstation you wish to configure from the Select Workstation drop down list. Note: If you change the workstation name before clicking the Apply Changes button or the Save button, your changes are lost.
To make changes, click Edit. When you are in edit mode, click Save to retain your changes or click Cancel to exit edit mode without saving your changes.
