Setting up the Cash Drawer

PAYD Pro PlusTM In-Store works with a POS cash drawer that will open when commanded by the receipt printer. The cash drawer will not work until the receipt printer has been properly installed and configured. During setup, you can test the cash drawer by opening it.

To set up and test the cash drawer:

1. Unpack the cash drawer.

2. Locate the keys and unlock the drawer. Ensure the lock remains in the “Unlocked” position so that the drawer will open on demand.

3. Plug one end of the cash drawer cable into the port at the rear of the drawer.

4. Plug the other end of the cash drawer cable into a port on the rear of the receipt printer.

5. Open PAYD Pro Plus and launch the POS view.

6. Click the Tools tab.

7. Click the Hardware Setup button.
   The POS – Hardware Setup popup appears with the Scanner tab selected by default.

8. Click the Cash Drawer tab.

9. Click the Cash drawer drop-down menu and select the cash drawer driver from the list of installed drivers.
   NOTE: The driver may have a different name than the one displayed here.
   NOTE: If the driver name does not appear in the Cash drawer drop-down menu, ensure the OPOS drivers are installed successfully.
   

10. Click the Test button. Your drawer will open.

11. Click the Close button at the bottom of the POS – Hardware Setup popup.

12. Repeat steps 1 – 11 to install cash drawers on other POS lanes as needed.

NOTE: For changes to take effect, close down all browser windows and re-start PAYD Pro Plus In-Store POS view.
