Hardware Requirements
Hardware Requirements
To facilitate reading and interpretation of hardware requirements, they are broken down in 3 tiers:
Minimum
The minimum requirement is the bare minimum that will allow the Maitre'D Advanced POS User Interface to operate adequately, without any consideration for possible expansion or "future-proofing".
Recommended
The recommended hardware configuration should yield adequate performance in most situations and provide headroom for future expansion of the system.
Large Sites / High Volume
The hardware configuration for large sites should yield adequate performance in restaurants using 20 or more POS workstations. This requirement also applies to restaurants with high volume of orders, where the number of POS workstations may not be as high as 20, but where the POS Workstations are in near-constant use.
