The default interface after launching the touch cash register is the so-called launcher or trigger. Actually, it is a user interface with the desktop and applications. The launcher is not only a starting point when accessing the cash register applications, but also offers other functions:
•Select the applications to be displayed on the desktop.
•Quick access to all applications installed on the cash register.
•Change the displaying size (change text size).
•Use the option protect access for all applications and launcher settings with a PIN.

We strongly recommend not to install third-party applications on the cash register. Otherwise the cash register may get overloaded and its processes may slow down. To keep the system in good condition, at least once per week the touch cash register should be restarted. |
