Before You Begin

You will require manager permissions in SkyTab POS to complete this process.

This process will take approximately 2 minutes to complete.

This guide assumes that you have already set up your receipt printer, and need to connect your SkyTab Glass device to the printer. If you have not connected the printer to the network, you should do so before continuing with this setup.

Set Payment Reader

Begin by navigating to Manager > Settings > Hardware, then tap on the Pin Pad tab.

Be sure to select Onboard Reader from the dropdown if it is not selected.

If your SkyTab Glass device will be used with a guest-facing tip prompt, toggle on the Prompt for Tips toggle.

Assign Receipt Printer to Glass

Tap on the Printers tab in Hardware Settings. (If you were logged out, go to Manager > Settings > Hardware, then tap on Printers.)

Select your receipt printer from the Printers list on the left.

Tap on the Edit Printer Setup button.

Complete Receipt Printer Assignment

On the Edit Printer screen, verify and configure the following:

  1. The printer should be set to IP.
  2. Under Assigned Station, select the Terminal Number associated with your Glass device. You can find the Terminal Number in the upper right of your Glass screen, as shown in the image.

When you have completed the configuration, tap Save.

If you would like to use your SkyTab Glass as a guest-facing device to prompt for tips on the device, continue to the next step. If not, the payment configuration is complete.

Requirement - Configure Tip Hints for Receipts

Select your Receipts printer from the list on the left.

Enter values for each of the tip hints as shown on the screen, then tap Save.

Verify Tip Prompts are Disabled on External Pin Pad(s)

Navigate to Manager > Settings > Hardware > Pin Pad.

If you need to disable tips on the device, set the Prompt for Tips toggle to OFF. Unless otherwise needed, you will need to verify that this setting is OFF for an external pin pad attached to a SkyTab POS Workstation.
