Once installed, download and extract the 8200-2200.zip file and run the VFD_Setup.exe file. This will allow you to set the Pole Display in a number of different configuration settings.

+ | ===== Pole Display POS-X XP8200U ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Pole display is USB but will emulate a serial device once the drivers are installed. \\ | ||
+ | First, download and install the XP8200 Virtual COM Driver which will allow you to configure the port settings to be used for the device. | ||
+ | |||
+ | https:// | ||
+ | |||
+ | You MUST verify the serial number of the pole display and download the correct driver.\\ | ||
+ | There are 3 versions: \\ | ||
+ | If your serial number is equal to or less than 274590 choose XP8200_Virtual_COM_Driver_V1.exe driver.\\ | ||
+ | If your serial number is equal to or greater than 274591 choose XP8200_Virtual_COM_Driver_V2.exe driver.\\ | ||
+ | If your serial number is equal to or greater than BEAT290910 choose XP8200_Virtual_COM_Driver_V3.exe driver.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Once installed, you may need to unplug the USB cable from the USB Port wait a few seconds and then plug it back in again for Windows to detect it. \\ | ||
+ | Open control panel and Verify which COM Port the Prolific USB to Serial driver is using. \\ | ||
+ | The default is 3 unless that port is already assigned to another device. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Now download and extract the XP8200 Configuration Utility from : \\ | ||
+ | https:// | ||
+ | Again, you need to download the correct one based on the serial number of the Pole Display. \\ | ||
+ | If your serial number is equal to or less than 274590 choose V1 utility. \\ | ||
+ | If your serial number is equal to or greater than 274591 choose V2 utility. \\ | ||
+ | If your serial number is equal to or greater than BEAT290910 choose V3 utility. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Once you extract the utility, run the VFD_Setup.exe file. \\ | ||
+ | This will allow you to set the Pole Display in a number of different configuration settings. \\ | ||

+ | Once you select it from the dropdown, click the Download Settings To VFD button to have the DSP-800 settings uploaded to the Pole Display. You should get a popup saying it was successful. \\ | ||
+ | Close the utility and open System Five. \\ | ||
+ | In the POS Device Manager, go to the Pole Display tab.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | Set the Port settings to the correct COM Port. As mentioned before, the default is 3 unless that port is already assigned to another device. The workstations I was working with had devices using COM 3 on some machines, so rather than having some on COM3 and some on COM4, I just set them all to COM4 in Windows to keep everything the same on all Workstations. \\ | ||
+ | Set the Display Width to 20 because these are 20 character displays. \\ | ||
+ | Set the Pole Display Model to DSP-800 \\ | ||
+ | Click the Test button and have the client verify the display looks the same as the example in the POS Device Manager. | ||
