IoT system connection
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
To connect the POS with an :doc:`IoT system </applications/general/iot>`:
|
|
|
|
#. Make sure both the Point of Sale and Internet of Things (IoT) apps are installed on your
|
|
database.
|
|
#. Set up the :doc:`/applications/general/iot/iot_box` or
|
|
:doc:`/applications/general/iot/windows_iot`.
|
|
#. Connect the peripheral devices to the IoT system:

|
* - Device
|
|
- Instructions
|
|
* - 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:`../restaurant/kitchen_printing`.
|
|
* - Cash drawer
|
|
- The cash drawer should be connected to the printer with an RJ25 cable.
|
|
* - Barcode scanner
|
|
- The barcode scanner must end barcodes with an `ENTER` character (keycode 28) in order for
|
|
the barcode scanner to be compatible. This is most likely the barcode scanner's default
|
|
configuration.
|
|
* - Scale
|
|
- Connect the scale and power it on. Refer to :doc:`/applications/general/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/general/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>`.
|
|
|
|
#. :doc:`Connect the IoT system to your Odoo database </applications/general/iot/connect>`.
|
|
#. :ref:`Access the POS settings <configuration/settings>` and select your POS, or click the
|
|
vertical ellipsis button (:guilabel:`⋮`) on a POS card and click :guilabel:`Edit`. Scroll down
|
|
to the :guilabel:`Connected Devices` section, enable :guilabel:`IoT Box`, then select the devices
|
|
to be used for the POS. Click :guilabel:`Save`.
|
|
|
|
.. tip::
|
|
Click :guilabel:`IoT Devices` to access the list of :doc:`/applications/general/iot/devices` for
|
|
your POS and view their connection status. Click a card to access the device's form.
