Initial Setup on the LinkPOS App

Log in and touch the options menu in the upper left corner of the LinkPOS app.

Then select the Processors or PAX button. If there are multiple processors available select the PAX option from the list.

From the PAX selection dialog you can perform various actions

Choose a PAX device to pair with.

Touch Scan and scan the Serian Number on the back of the PAX device. Or enter the number by hand.

Touch the Lookup button to lookup the IP address of the PAX device using the serial number in the Pax Serial Number field.

Touch the Test/Identify button to display a message on the PAX device. You can use this to make sure the data entered is correct.

Touch the Reset button to dismiss the message box from the PAX device and return to the idle screen. From the idle screen you can get to the BroadPOS options page.

Touch all four corners of the idle screen in order from top left, top right, bottom right, and bottom left.

Then the password screen will show up

The default password is the current date with leading zeros like this MMDDYYYY. So an example would be 09242025

Then you can see a list of options.

Touch the History item to see a list of the current transactions on the device. You can use this menu to see if a card was charged or not. If something goes wrong and cannot be fixed from the LinkPOS app you can go here to see if the card was charged or not. If there is a Sale in the list with the last four of the card in it then the card was charged. If it is not in the list then the card was not charged.
