IoT system connection

To connect the POS with an IoT system:

1. Make sure both the Point of Sale and Internet of Things (IoT) apps are installed on your database.

2. Set up the IoT box or Windows virtual IoT.

3. Connect the peripheral devices to the IoT system:

   Device	Instructions
   Printer	Connect a supported receipt printer to a USB port or to the network, and power it on. Refer to Order printing.
   Cash drawer	The cash drawer should be connected to the printer with an RJ25 cable.
   Barcode scanner	The barcode scanner must end barcodes with an ENTER character (keycode 28) in order for the barcode scanner to be compatible. This is most likely the barcode scanner’s default configuration.
   Scale	Connect the scale and power it on.
   Customer display	Connect a screen to the IoT box to display the PoS order.
   Payment terminal	The connection process depends on the terminal. Refer to the payment terminals documentation.

4. Connect the IoT system to your Odoo database.

5. In the Connect to a Point of Sale popup that opens, select the Associated POS and click Continue. The IoT system and its devices are automatically linked to the POS.

   Tip

   Alternatively, access the POS settings and select the POS, or click the vertical ellipsis button (⋮) on a POS card and click Edit. Then, enable IoT Box, select the devices to use with the POS, and click Save.
