| Receipt printer | Records and receipts |
| Cash drawer | Cash from staff and visitors |
| Customer display | Total visible to the pupil |
| UPS | Keeps service going |

03How we install it
- 01Visit and measureWe look at the serving hatch, the queue path and the storeroom and place counters so the line does not block doors.
- 02Choose the sizePick the small, medium or large bundle that matches the site, and add extras only where they earn their place.
- 03Cable, power and fitEquipment placed, cable run, UPS fitted so the POS survives a power cut.
- 04Set up and testProducts, prices or ticket lines entered, then a full test with a real customer and a real receipt or ticket.
