Hello,

I have a Micros 3700 POS and would like to add a cash drawer to one of the workstation 5 terminals that has no cash drawer currently connected to it and add a second cash drawer to a workstation 5 terminal that already has a cash drawer connected to it. I have purchase the drawers, but how do I go about connecting these cash drawers? What do I need to change in the POS configuration?

Thank you,

lachilles
 
In the POS Configurator, go to

Devices > Cashier
- match the settings here to another terminal with a cash drawer
Devices > Peripherals
-match settings

This is also where you will select 2 cash drawers.

This also assumes you are using integrated cash drawers and since you said you are connecting to the terminal and not the printer, that is my assumption.

Hi BootstrapperRI,

Yes I will be connecting them directly to the terminal. I take it I should have workstation 5 terminal I'm adding the drawers to shutdown before I change the settings and plug in the drawers right?

Thank you,

Thank you so much for the help, I found some refurbished drawers online, so I figured why not buy them online and put them in myself since it seemed simple and saved money.

Thank you,

just be careful online. There are 2 type of connections to the terminal. Series 1 for WS5 and older terminals. Series 2 for the new WS6 terminals. Don't get series 2 unless you also get a converter cable.

No I checked them out, and examined them, I got the right cables they gave me the cable with the 4 pin connector.
