Cash drawer tab
You can use the Cash Drawer tab to set up a cash drawer in POS Terminal.
Most common types of cash drawer can be used with POS Terminal. They only require some
other device, such as a receipt printer, to supply enough electrical power to “kick” the drawer
open at the right time.
If you are using a cash drawer whose brand name does not appear in the list, select Generic Cash Drawer. If you
select the generic cash drawer and it is connected to one of the computer’s communications ports, program it with
the following:
Baud Rate - 9600 bps•
No Parity•
8 Data Bits and 1 Stop Bit•
The kicking device should be able to be triggered by POS sending a single space character to the device.•
If your receipt printer has a cash drawer port, often known as a Drawer Kicker port, it is recommended that the
cash drawer be connected to this port on the receipt printer. To operate a cash drawer connected to any other
port you will require a separate drawer kicking device, unless the cash drawer has such a device inbuilt. The cash
drawer should be connected to the drawer kicker device, and the device connected to one of the computer’s
communications ports or printer ports.
