Cash Drawer
StoreTender can be configured to use either one or two cash drawers. Each cashier is assigned a particular drawer to use as a default. This is especially useful in a cashier accounting setup where one employee is the "regular" cashier on the till and a second employee, or "floater" comes in as a relief.
From the Main Menu navigate to
Setup > Register > Devices, and selectCash Drawer.
Choose which drawer you are setting up - top or bottom. If you have a single cash drawer, choose "top".
If your cash drawer is connected directly to your receipt printer, select the Manufacturer, Model and Emulation - then select "Connected to Printer" for the Interface. The emulation should match that set for your receipt printer.
If you cash drawer is connected to your computer via a serial cable (COM port), see the below example. The specific settings can be found in your cash drawer manufacturer's documentation or on their website.
It is always a good idea to REBOOT your system whenever you've installed new hardware or drivers. Often, features do not function until your computer has restarted.
