Frequently Asked Questions

Do you set up the software?

Physical setup only - mounting, connecting cables, and basic testing. Software configuration and till integration is usually handled by your POS supplier or IT support.

What types of scanner?

Handheld, fixed mount, and presentation scanners - most common retail types. We mount, connect, and ensure they scan. Complex integrations need specialist support.

Can you do multiple till points?

Yes - we can set up scanners across multiple tills in one visit. Makes sense to do them all together. Bulk setup is efficient.

What about wireless scanners?

We can mount the charging base and pair the scanner. Range testing and configuration is usually straightforward. Very technical integration issues need your POS support.
