Nomni KDS not getting orders from the POS (CONNECTED: NO)

Written by Lucien Hopkinson

Use this guide if your kitchen display (KDS) has stopped showing orders, or General Settings on the KDS shows CONNECTED: NO.

Before you start

  • You need the Master POS iPad and the KDS.

  • Both must be on the same venue Wi-Fi.

Reconnect the KDS

  1. On the Master POS, open Settings > Connection and note the DEVICE ADDRESS.

  2. On the KDS, open General Settings.

  3. Check CONNECTED and AUTHORISED.

  4. Check the KDS is on the same Wi-Fi as the Master. Turn off Private Wi-Fi Address on both iPads (see Fix Wi-Fi drops).

  5. Enter the Master's address on the KDS and connect.

  6. Restart the Master POS, then the KDS.

  7. On the KDS, tap HARD RELOAD ORDERS FROM MASTER POS.

What you should see: CONNECTED: YES, and open orders appear on the KDS.

If something goes wrong

  • AUTHORISED: NO: message us. The KDS may need a licence.

  • Still not connecting: send us the Device Register Code of the Master and the KDS.
