DRIVER INSTALLATION
The Windows XP/Vista USB drivers are available on our web site at www.bematechus.com. Please download and unzip the driver files before installation. There are two types of driver interface available. If the POS software is only able to access COM ports for the pole display, use the Virtual COM port interface. After the driver is installed, the USB interface will be assigned a COM port name so that the POS software will be able to communicate with the USB display as a COM port. Note that the operating system will assign the display a different COM port number if the display is plugged into a different USB port. Another driver interface use a specific device name (\\.\LCLD1) to access the pole display directly. Install this driver if you are using OPOS or the POS software was tailored to use this device name.
