Devices

Summary

POS devices (iPads, Windows terminals) are managed for a site on the Devices page. A device PIN is assigned to each device to allow it to connect to a specific site. 

  • When a new device is added, a device PIN is assigned that is specific to the site

  • An existing device can be assigned a new device PIN by revoking the current PIN first

An administrator can add, edit or disable a device and can revoke and assign device PINs.
