Staff PIN

With an iOS Master: Update Staff PIN sets a 4-digit PIN on this iPad. With an Android Master: Require a PIN to change settings uses your POS staff PINs.

Sync Data

SYNC Products and Menus and SYNC Settings from the Master.

If something goes wrong

"No staff accounts found. Please add a staff member to continue."

With an Android Master, the PIN settings need staff set up on the POS. Add a staff member in Nomni Console, sync the POS, then SYNC Settings here.

"No staff PINs found. Please assign a PIN to at least one staff member."

Give at least one staff member a PIN, then sync.

"Connecting to Master Device" keeps retrying

Check both iPads are on the same Wi-Fi and the POS Platform matches your Master. Then see "How to connect Nomni POS with Table Ordering".

Tables missing

Tap RELOAD under Table to reload supported tables from the Master.
