•For proper Dotypos functioning, it is recommended to use a stable, high-quality Internet connection, independent of other Wi-Fi networks (e.g. for guests). If you do not have a permanent internet connection, it is useful to connect the cash register to the internet at least once a week for 20 minutes for data backup and license verification. A functioning Internet connection is indicated the cloud icon on the main screen •For proper cash register functioning without interruptions, the license has to be regularly verified through an Internet connection. If the license cannot be verified within 14 days, the cash register will not be usable. After 10 days without the license verification a notification will be displayed, however the cash register is still functional for the next 4 days. So you have to connect the cash register to the Internet at least once per 10 days. |
