The pager system can be connected to any POS Terminal on the network.
When sending a page through the network, it will rely on IPS Client to send to the pager.
Depending on the network and traffic, it may take longer to send the message to pager than it would if the system is connected to the terminal sending the details.
Go to: Setup > Global Options > Interfaces > Pager Interface > Interface Type: LRS, Output from POS#: POS Terminal where the pager is connected > Comm Port: Enter the COM number assigned to the device after it has been plugged in.
You may need to open Device Manager to find this information.
