Ethernet Cash Drawer

Once you have attached the cash drawer to your counter, you will need to run an ethernet cable from the cash drawer to the nearest router. You will also need to plug the cash drawer into a power supply. After this is completed, follow these steps:

 

You will need to know your IP Address configuration, specifically your IPv4 Address and Default Gateway.  Please contact your IT Service Provider or Visum for assistance with this if needed.

 

1.Download http://www.visum-corp.com/downloads/apgethernet.zip

2.Unzip this file

3.Run APGCdRelUtil

4.Click Scan

5.Once it finds the drawer, click on “Details”

6.Click on Configuration

7.Change last number of IP Address to 199 (for example, if your network IP addresses all start with "192.168.1." then the IP Address for this cash drawer should be 192.168.1.199. If by chance there is another device on your network with this IP address, choose another IP Address.

8.Change the Default Gateway to be the default gateway of your network.

9.Write down the IP Address.

10.Close utility.

 

Go to terminal file in FocalPoint (C-3 from the main menu). You will need to do this at each PC that will be using the cash drawer.

For each terminal:
