The Veloce Application's settings will be displayed. The settings are divided in various sections, illustrated separately for clarity:

***

### Workstation Type

### &#x20;![](/files/Nm85HytzEz3Y4tMEleTD)

#### Default value

Workstation

#### Available options:

**Workstation**

Select this option to use the payement terminal as a normal POS workstation as well as a payment device.

**Client Display**

Select this option if you are using a tablet as a customer-facing display or order confirmation screen.

**Kitchen Display**

Select this option if you are using a tablet as a kitchen display.

**Terminal**

Select this option to use the terminal as a payment device only.

***

### Workstation Properties

## &#x20;![](/files/jrmYIrETsJtB4pVmLFQV)

#### Workstation number

Enter the workstation number to use for this workstation. This corresponds to the workstation number configured in Point of Sale Control > Workstation > Workstation's Setup.

#### Serial number

Enter you Veloce license serial number.

#### Cloud-based

Enable this option only if you are using the cloud-based Back-Office. If your Veloce Back-Office is installed on a PC on your local network, this option needs to be disabled.

#### Workstation theme

Select between the various color schemes that will apply to the workstation.

#### Auto-Connect

Enable this option to have the Veloce POS application connect automatically to the Veloce Back-Office when the application is launched. If this option is left disabled, the workstation will not connect automatically to the Veloce Back-Office when the application is launched. Instead, you will need to press a "CONNECT" button to manually connect.

***

### Connection credentials

![](/files/Qitop5dG2E75xLk08qp2)

#### Username

Enter the username to connect to the Veloce Back-Office, as configured in Setup / Utilities > Configuration > System Configuration... > Misc. > Modern Workstation > UserName.

#### Password

Enter the password to connect to the Veloce Back-Office, as configured in Setup / Utilities > Configuration > System Configuration... > Misc. > Modern Workstation > Password.

#### Forced IP

In this field, type the IP address that the Veloce POS application should use to connect to the Veloce Back-Office. This is required only if your Veloce Back-Office PC has more than one Ethernet adapter or uses multiple virtual adapters, resulting in the same PC having multiple IP addresses.

***

### Hardware

#### Scanner

Enable/Disable this option to turn the barcode scanner on or off.

#### Printer

Enable/Disable this option to turn the built-in printer on or off.

#### Tear paper prompt

Enable this option to have the application stop printing and notify the user when a check/receipt needs to be torn from the built-in printer. If this option is disabled, the printer will briefly pause between each printout but will automatically resume printing without notifying the user.

#### Payment

Enable this option to use the terminal as a payment device.

#### Card Reader

Enable/Disable this option to turn the magnetic card reader on or off. This only affects non-payment cards, like employee cards. Even of this option is disabled, the magnetic card reader will still be usable as a fall-back reader for payments cards (debit and credit).

#### Mifare Reader

Enable/Disable this option to turn the Mifare reader (contactless reader) on or off. This only affects non-payment cards, like employee cards. Even of this option is disabled, contactless payment will still be available.

***
