NorthStar Order Entry and allee Setup
Download software
- Set up a TestFlight account and download the application to the iPad.
Share the program files
- Go to: c:\programfiles\custom business solutions\ order entry services\kitchenoutput.
Change security permissions
- Change the security permissions to read/write for the actual pc server user, normally cbs user.

Launch allee
- To launch the allee application, tap the access setting menu (three stacked lines, top left) on the main screen.
Configure settings
- Tap Settings
- Tap Server
- Enter settings
- Server address: enter folder directory of shared folder
EX: 192.168.1.30/kitchenoutput - Username: name created for shared folder
CBS - Password: password create for user
cbsinc - Synch socket port:
Do not change socket port ever
- Server address: enter folder directory of shared folder
- Test Connection
- Tap Test Connection.
- It should say Connected in green after tapping.
- If there is no connection, you have a shared permission issue or the allee system is NOT on the same network as the pc/server.
Devices
- After the device is connected, tap Devices to see the current device.
- The Host number (last column) should match the device external code in ECM for your kitchen device. (See step #10 for reference.)
NorthStar ECM Settings
- Configure the settings in ECM by editing the site.
- Kitchen tab
- Areas > Locations > Kitchen – Configure the device settings to match the device in allee.
