Understand your setup
Section titled “Understand your setup”The badge at the top of each guide explains plan availability. Compare the plans to distinguish a paid feature from a module that only needs switching on.
The main device holds your venue’s records. Paired screens communicate over your own network. Offline operation explains which connections each task needs; backups and recovery explains how to protect the records.
Country guides apply to the venue’s location. A German-language screen can serve a venue in Luxembourg; it does not make German tax settings appropriate. Untranslated guides appear in English with a translation notice.
