KOT System FAQ

Any monitor or TV with a web browser. We recommend 24"+ displays for kitchen use. No special hardware required.
Yes. Our hybrid mode lets you use screens for the main display and auto-print for specific items or stations.
Each menu item is tagged with a prep station (grill, fry, bar, etc.). When an order comes in, items automatically route to the correct station display.
Kitchen staff can request modifications (e.g., "86 item") but cannot change pricing. All changes are logged with timestamp and staff ID.
Orders received before the outage remain on screen. New orders from POS are queued locally and appear on KDS when connection returns.
