FOCUS STATION AND BACKUP STATION
(very important stations)
FOCUS STATION
This is the controlling station. Think of it as the brain of the Focus POS system. It’s normally (but not always) in the office or behind the bar. It controls the credit cards and printer routing.
BACKUP STATION
Backs up all Focus POS data every 7 mins and can become the FOCUS STATION if necessary. It normally (but not always) is in the office or in the bar. The Backup Station also closes the day (Reports, CC batch, etc.) at the end of the night and can control some printers.
