POS systems could come in different forms. In this manual, POS systems
are referred to those with receipt printers externally connected. Before
configuring, it is important to identify the interface type of your POS system.
It must be either serial or parallel.
POS System Connection
Our default settings are set to support serial POS systems, since most of
the POS systems available in market are serial. Follow these steps to
make the connection:
1. Connect the GV-Data Capture box as illustrated below:
