================
Connect a screen
================
In Odoo, an :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` Box can be connected to a screen display. After being
connected, the screen can be used to display a :abbr:`PoS (Point of Sale)` order to a client.

.. note::
Access the customer display from any other computer by going to the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)`
Box homepage and clicking on the :guilabel:`POS Display` button.
Connection
==========
The way to connect the screen display to the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` Box differs depending
on the model.
.. tabs::
.. tab:: IoT Box model 4
Connect up to two screens with Micro-HDMI cables on the side of the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)`
Box. If two screens are connected, they can display distinct content (see usage below).
.. tab:: IoT Box model 3
Connect the screen with an HDMI cable on the side of the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` Box.
.. important::
Screen(s) should be connected before the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` Box is switched on. If it
is already on, connect the screen(s), and then restart the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` Box by
unplugging it and plugging it back into its power source.
.. warning::
The usage of HDMI/Micro-HDMI adapters may cause issues which will result in a blank, black screen on
the screen display. Cable usage is recommended.
If the connection was successful, the screen should display the :guilabel:`POS Client display`
screen.

The screen should also appear in the list of :guilabel:`Displays` on the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of
Things)` Box homepage.
