Local WiFi Network
All of the devices in the system must be on the same local network. There needs to be a single WIFI network that all of the iPads, printers and PAX devices connect to. If the PAX device is not connected to your LinkPOS WiFi network here are instructions on how to connect the device to your network:
Install the LinkPOS app
If there is no app on the main screen called LinkPOS then you need to install the app from the PAXSTORE:
- Open the PAXSTORE app
- Enter LinkPOS in the search bar
- Install the LinkPOS app. Do not install the LinkPOS Payment Terminal app. The payment terminal app can only be used to tender orders placed from an iPad or another device.
Update the app to the latest version:
- Open the PAXSTORE app
- Select My Apps
- If the LinkPOS app has an update button next to it touch it to install the latest version.
Setup the LinkPOS app
- Open the app
- Touch Setup
- Enter the company, store and password for your LinkPOS account and touch Login. These are the same credentials you use to install the app on the iPad terminals. If you do not know them contact support at LinkPOS to get them.
- Under "Create a new device" touch Create
- Touch Register
- Enter a unique register number not used yet for other devices at your store.
- Select the menu used at the store
- The device is now set up to take orders.
Log in and take orders from the PAX device
- Open the LinkPOS app
- Touch Take Orders
- Enter your employee PIN to log in.
- From the main page select items from the Menu to add to the current order
- When you have finished entering the items tender the order by touching Ticket and then Tender
- From the tender page touch Card to pay with a credit card
- Insert, tap or swipe the card to pay for the order.
