Install the Internet of Things (IoT) App on your Odoo Database.
|
An Internet of Things (IoT) box is a micro-computer device that allows for the connection of input
|
||||||
|
and output devices to an Odoo database. An :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box subscription is
|
||||||
|
required in order to use the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box with a secured connection. A
|
||||||
|
computer is also required to set up the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box.

#. Power on the IoT Box.
|
First, connect all wired devices to the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box (ethernet, :abbr:`USB
|
||||||

|
Then, connect all wired devices to the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box (:abbr:`USB (Universal
|
||||||
|

Upon connecting to the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box WiFi, a browser will automatically
|
||||||
|
redirect to the :menuselection:`Configure Iot Box` wizard. Name the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)`
|
||||||
|
box, then paste the previously copied *token* into the :guilabel:`Server Token` field, and then
|
||||||

If the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box WiFi connection wizard doesn't start, then see the
|
||||||
|
documentation on :ref:`connecting with a token <iot_connect/token>`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now, choose the WiFi network that the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box will connect with (enter
|
||||||
|
the password if there is one) and click on :guilabel:`Connect`. Wait a few seconds and the browser
|
||||||
|
will redirect to the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box homepage. The computer may need to be
|
||||||
|
manually re-connected back to the original WiFi connection, if this does not happen automatically.

The :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box may need to be manually rebooted upon successfully
|
||||||
|
connecting via WiFi for the box to appear in the *IoT app* on the Odoo database. To do so, simply
|
||||||
|
unplug the device and plug it back into the power source after ten seconds.

Manually connecting the IoT box using the token
|
||||||
|
===============================================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A manual connection of the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box to the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of
|
||||||
|
Things)` app can be made using the *token*, from a computer. The *token* can be found by navigating
|
||||||
|
to :menuselection:`IoT app --> IoT Boxes` and clicking on :guilabel:`Connect`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Under the :guilabel:`WiFi Connection` section of the :guilabel:`Connect an IoT Box` page that
|
||||||
|
appears, click :guilabel:`Copy` to the right of the :guilabel:`Token`. This token will be entered
|
||||||
|
into the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box homepage.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Access the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box homepage by entering the :abbr:`IP (Internet
|
||||||
|
Protocol)` address of the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box into a browser window from a computer
|
||||||
|
on the same network as the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box (preferably by ethernet connection).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. note::
|
||||||
|
The :abbr:`IP (Internet Protocol)` address can be accessed by the router admin console that the
|
||||||
|
:abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box is connected to, or by connecting a receipt printer to the
|
||||||
|
:abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box. A receipt will print out with the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of
|
||||||
|
Things)` box's :abbr:`IP (Internet Protocol)` address on it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
On the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box homepage, enter the *token* under the :guilabel:`Server`
|
||||||
|
section by clicking on :guilabel:`Configure`. Then, paste the *token* into the :guilabel:`Server
|
||||||
|
Token` field and click :guilabel:`Connect`. The :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box will then link
|
||||||
|
to the Odoo database.

To connect hardware to the PoS, the first step is to connect an IoT Box
|
* - Device Name
|
||||||
to your database. For this, follow this
|
- Instructions
|
||||||
:doc:`documentation <connect>`.
|
* - Printer
|
||||||
|
- Connect a supported receipt printer to a :abbr:`USB (Universal Serial Bus)` port or
|
||||||
|
to the network, and power it on. Refer to
|
||||||
|
:doc:`/applications/sales/point_of_sale/restaurant/kitchen_printing`.
|
||||||
|
* - Cash drawer
|
||||||
|
- The cash drawer should be connected to the printer with an RJ25 cable.
|
||||||
|
* - Barcode scanner
|
||||||
|
- In order for the barcode scanner to be compatible it must end barcodes with an `ENTER`
|
||||||
|
character (keycode 28). This is most likely the default configuration of the barcode scanner.
|
||||||
|
* - Scale
|
||||||
|
- Connect the scale and power it on. Refer to
|
||||||
|
:doc:`/applications/productivity/iot/devices/scale`.
|
||||||
|
* - Customer display
|
||||||
|
- Connect a screen to the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box to display the :abbr:`PoS (Point
|
||||||
|
of Sale)` order. Refer to :doc:`/applications/productivity/iot/devices/screen`.
|
||||||
|
* - Payment terminal
|
||||||
|
- The connection process depends on the terminal. Refer to the :doc:`payment terminals
|
||||||
|
documentation </applications/sales/point_of_sale/payment_methods>`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Then, you have to connect the peripheral devices to your IoT Box.
|
Once this is completed, connect the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box to the :menuselection:`PoS`
|
||||||
|
application. To do this, go to :menuselection:`Point of Sale --> Configuration --> PoS`, tick the
|
||||||
|
:guilabel:`IoT Box` option, and select the devices to be used in this :abbr:`PoS (Point of Sale)`.
|
||||||
|
:guilabel:`Save` the the changes.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Printer**: Connect a supported receipt printer to a USB port or to
|
.. image:: pos/iot-connected-devices.png

the network and power it on.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Cash drawer**: The cash drawer should be connected to the printer
|
|
||||||
with an RJ25 cable.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Barcode scanner**: Connect your barcode scanner. In order for your
|
|
||||||
barcode scanner to be compatible it must end barcodes with an Enter
|
|
||||||
character (keycode 28). This is most likely the default configuration
|
|
||||||
of your barcode scanner.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Scale**: Connect your scale and power it on.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Customer Display**: Connect a screen to the IoT Box to display the
|
|
||||||
PoS order. Please refer to
|
|
||||||
:doc:`/applications/productivity/iot/devices/screen`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Payment terminal**: The connection process depends on the terminal,
|
|
||||||
please refer to the :doc:`payment terminals documentation
|
|
||||||
</applications/sales/point_of_sale/payment_methods>`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Once it's done, you can connect the IoT Box to your PoS. For this, go in
|
|
||||||
:menuselection:`Point of Sale --> Configuration --> PoS`, tick *IoT Box*
|
|
||||||
and select the devices you want to use in this Point of Sale. Save the
