Apple Ipad
Apple Ipad, we recommended IOS version is 10.33 above or latest IOS version for more stability. 

Router



So there any many types of routers.
Example : Tenda , Tp-Link , Huawei , Asus , Dlink 

But we recommended to use router that support 5Ghz wifi range. Furthermore, not just the wifi range we emphasize,even though the router performance should also be taken into consideration.

Question : Why must use router that support 5GHz only, why not 2.4GHz.
Answer   : 5GHz provides faster data rates at a shorter distance, whereas 2.4GHz offers coverage for farther distances, but may perform at slower speeds.

*Gentle reminder, if your router does not support 5GHz, we will not bear in terms of network stability*

Question : How to know if my router support 5Ghz ?
Answer   :  You can check specification for your router on web . Example: Tenda Ac1200 specification. Also you can check on box label of your router. Another way to tell, without looking up your wireless router model, is to look at your Wi-Fi network's name (SSID). Your Wi-Fi router may be broadcasting two networks, with different names to indicate the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. but you can generally tell just by looking. For instance, the 5GHz network may have 5, 5G, or 5GHz as part of its name.

Among which is the most required printer specifications for compatibility with our POS system.

Question : I already have a printer while using the old POS system, can i use those old printer for slurp POS system?

Question : Does thermal printer use ink?
Answer   : Thermal printers do not use separate ink, toner, or ribbon supplies. Thermal transfer printers use a thermal print head to transfer a solid ink from a ribbon onto a label supply (usually made from vinyl, polyester, nylon, or other thicker materials) to produce a permanent print.

Cash Drawer

Simple explanation for cash drawer, all you need is on your cash drawer is RJ11, and that only requirements for cash drawer.

Question : How do i know if my cash drawer have RJ11?
Answer    : RJ11 is the common connector for plugging a telephone into the wall and the handset into the telephone.

Question : what is difference between RJ11 and RJ45?
Answer    : The main difference between these two is in where they are actually used. RJ45 jacks are used in networking, where you connect computers or other network elements to each other. RJ11 is the cable connector that is being used in telephone sets.
