Description
This menu item is used to configure the settings for Keyboard Input (USB) Devices at the SwiftPOS Touch terminal. It should NOT be used to configure Barcode Scanners, Magnetic Card Swipe Readers or RFID Readers, as these are Peripherals that can be added in their own right. It also excludes devices that create virtual com ports or other RS232 devices like RS232 Bar Code Scanners.
To Be Considered
- Note : Do NOT use the Keyboard Input Device to configure Barcode Scanners, Magnetic Card Swipe Readers or RFID Readers. These can be setup by selecting the appropriate Peripheral. Where possible always remove this Peripheral, as it can impact adversely on the input of other configured devices.
Pre-Requisites
- If no Keyboard device exists in the list of Peripherals, then it will need to be added.
- Note : Ensure the USB scanner is programmed to send a 'carriage return' + 'line feed' ('enter') as a suffix.
