Does it work with every cash register out there?

Recommended Posts

I haven't done any POS before but I like to know if Avermedia support all cash register brand or only some?

I don't know about AverMedia specifically, but in my experience, it will depend on the POS system to a large degree. I've run into some that don't have serial output, which precludes the standard method of capturing text data from a serial port, and most I've seen use some minor variations on ASCII formatting codes that may confuse some DVRs or TVS inserters.

 

All the Squirrel POS systems I've dealt with do have an option to output for a "pole display", which makes a more "generic" ASCII output that's worked well with most systems I've tried it on.

It's not really the DVR compatibilty, but rather your register sending out transactions through serial or parallel port. All the Ruby POS systems work well, by the way.
