What do you need to consider about POS machine hardware configuration?
With the continuous development of the retail industry, many brick and mortar retail dealers now equip their stores with professional POS systems. What kind of point of sale system different industries need to configure, how to select hardware, etc. are all issues that need to be considered. In order to ensure that supermarkets, convenience stores and other retail store (point of sale) POS systems can operate normally and be efficiently empowered in daily use. TCANG recommends that you consider the following points when configuring point of sale hardware:
1. Operating system
The operating system of the (point of sale) POS machine is like a person’s brain. POS systems currently used on the market are generally Android systems and Windows systems, and we can select them according to actual needs. If the budget is not high and you want to pursue more functional applications and it is easier to operate, it is recommended to choose the Android system; if the budget is OK and the system needs to be compatible with more POS software and has stronger scalability, you can choose the Windows system.
2. Processor
Choosing a processor with a higher frequency and multi-core can ensure the computing speed and processing power of POS systems, thereby improving the efficiency of checkout and transactions.
3. Memory
Sufficient memory is the key to ensuring the smooth operation of the cash register. It is recommended to choose at least 4GB of memory to store more applications and data.
4. Display
Choose a high-quality display screen that can clearly display product information and checkout interface to improve customers’ shopping experience. The Android POS machine uses a capacitive multi-touch screen. The display pixels can be selected as 1600*900 or 1920*1080 as needed. The higher the optional parameter, the clearer the display will be.
5. Printer
Choose a printer with stable performance and fast printing speed, which can quickly print shipping orders, invoices and other vouchers to improve checkout efficiency.
6. Scan the device
Choose a scanning device suitable for various product barcodes, which can quickly and accurately read product information and improve checkout speed and accuracy.
7. Network
In order to achieve data transmission and communication with the backend system, ensure a stable and reliable network environment for the cash register connection.
8. Interface
In order to facilitate connection and data transmission with other devices, it is recommended to choose a cash register with rich interfaces, such as USB, HDMI, etc.
