Dispenser UI
The Dispenser UI is a web application that can run on any basic web terminal. The terminal only needs to run a browser to display the UI. Additional peripherals, such as barcode scanners or magnetic stripe readers, are required for scanning customer cards. JavaScript support must be enabled in the browser.
To start the Dispenser UI, simply open the URL http://{WDM-host}:{port}/app-wdm/#/welcome in that browser. If previous setup was successful, you should see the Welcome screen as seen in the image below:
Using the Scanner in Keyboard Mode
If it is possible to run your scanner in keyboard mode, you do not have to install the WDM Scanner Service. You just need to switch your scanner to keyboard mode. This usually requires the following steps to be taken:
- Switch the keyboard to "USB keyboard" mode.
- Disable the sending of barcode types as a prefix.
- Add the suffix for new lines (ASCII13).
- The keyboard type must correspond to the keyboard type of the operating system.
For details on how to switch your scanner to keyboard mode, consult the documentation provided by your scanner vendor.
