POS UI Connection Status Update (9/26/24)

We released an update to the POS UI to communicate network connection status of the POS and CFD (Customer Facing Display). The images below show the various banners that will appear if your POS of CFD is not connected to a network. You can dismiss these notifications by clicking the "X" in the right hand side of the banner. If you are receiving a notification that your device(s) are not connected to a network, please take steps to ensure the devices are properly connected to your network (Ethernet of WiFi), and that your network is functioning properly.

-Upon pinning in, if you are supposed to connect to a CFD, this banner will show up after 5 seconds if it hasn’t connected to the CFD yet. It will automatically dismiss after connection:

-If the POS connects the CFD at least once and it disconnects from it, this will show. It will go away if it reconnects.:

The banner will always prioritize the POS’s connection to the server/internet first vs the link to the CFD.
