Displaying Data from the Flexi System on a Customer Display

How to enable displaying data from the Flexi system on the customer display?

Written by Lenka Haringerová

The customer display shows information from the cash register (currently added items + amount).

Windows:

To activate it, you need to configure the pos.xml file in the c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\WinStrom\ directory. The file uses the following format:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<settings>

<userDisplayPort>COM4</userDisplayPort>

<userDisplayType>EPSON</userDisplayType>

</settings>

Linux:

Similarly, create a pos.xml file in the /etc/flexibee/ folder. However, you need to correctly define the port based on where the display is connected and how the OS assigns it a name. Below is an example of what this may look like. (The userDisplayPort will likely differ in your case.)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<settings>

<userDisplayPort>/dev/ttyUSB0</userDisplayPort>

<userDisplayType>EPSON</userDisplayType>

</settings>
