How to Set Up Your Scanner for Your POS Device

Setting up your scanner for your POS device is quick and easy. Most scanners are plug-and-play, meaning they should work immediately after being connected.

Step 1: Connect Your Scanner

Depending on your scanner type, follow these steps:

• USB Scanner: Plug the scanner into an available USB port on your POS device. It should be recognized automatically.
• Bluetooth Scanner:
  1. Turn on your scanner and set it to pairing mode (refer to the scanner’s manual for instructions).
  2. On your POS device, go to Bluetooth settings and search for available devices.
  3. Select your scanner from the list and pair it.

Once connected, your scanner should be ready to use.

Step 2: Adjust Scanner Settings (If Needed)

Our POS system does not require any special characters at the start or end of a barcode scan. However, some scanners may have this enabled by default or may have been configured for another system.

If barcodes are not scanning correctly, check your scanner’s settings:

• Refer to your scanner’s manual to disable prefix/suffix characters if they are enabled.
• Reset your scanner to its factory default settings if it was previously used with another POS system.

Step 3: Test Your Scanner
