What's New In V5?

A new floor plan designer program allows you to create seating charts with ease.

Epson Ethernet Print Server Support:

Cabled & Wireless printing is now possible... complete with automatic redirection around failed printers.  Works on any port, any IP address.   Run up to 16 ethernet printers from a single computer.

Conditional Cash Drawer Opens

Configure the cash drawer to open only when you want it to!

VIP Account Manager

Audit Printing

For restaurants that would like back-of-house auditing of all food & drink ordered throughout the establishment will love the new AUDIT PRINTING system.   It's also great for timing orders that were placed together but take different amounts of time to prepare... like a Chef Salad and a Large Calzone for the same table.

Floating POS Configuration

V5 features a new POS-CFG program that "floats" on the desktop... making setup & menu development much faster!   It is now possible to "take options" out of the POS Configuration program too - a great feature for resellers who don't want end-users tinkering.

MicroPlus KDS Driver

FreePOS V5 fully supports this powerful & industry standard KDS hardware.

Spill proof, stainless steel construction at an affordable price.  Order timer thresholds are programmable.

Many of our customers have asked for an inexpensive bump-bar based KDS - now you've got it!

POS Configuration Password Control

FreePOS V5 has an option to prompt for an access code before letting the user into the POS Configuration module.

Combination Transfers

New features include:  Transfer to new user & place at the same time and back & forth transfers to and from the tab list (complete with the security controls to make this practical!)   It is also possible to rename a tab provided no one is working on it.

Multiple Level Floor Plans & Waitress Sections

In V5 it is possible to configure your restaurant's seating chart on up to 6 separate screens.   Each seating chart can be assigned a password and a list of users who may work the tables... which makes assigning sections a breeze!   Just touch the section or area you wish to work and the proper seating chart pops up immediately.

Integrated Wireless Paging

We've partnered up with Long Range Systems and created a complete wireless messaging center inside of FreePOS.   The messaging center module features support for guest coasters (available in Lobster, Pizza or traditional shapes), staff pocket pagers and even local area text messaging.   A full complement of security & station level settings make this an incredibly flexible addition to FreePOS.  

• Tell your servers when an order is ready to pickup in the kitchen

• Send messages to the manager - from any POS station or hand held

• The Hostess can give guests wireless coasters while waiting at the bar for a table

• Improve customer service & get food to the table hotter!

Caterers & Clubs:  Document Management

Have you ever wanted a way to store your documents with the account they are related to? 

With FreePOS V5, each contact in your FreeVIP Control Panel can have an unlimited number

of documents filed with their account. Organize your quotes, catering orders and invoices for

once and for always!   Integrates with most popular office suites - including Microsoft Office.

Windows Spooler Print Engine

A powerful new print spooler has the ability to print to any local or networked Windows printer.

X-Charge Support

In addition to supporting almost EVERY CREDIT CARD PROCESSOR on the planet, FreePOS V5

will also support this popular freeware credit card processing.   X-Charge is easy to use and

supports many high end features (like auto-dial backup if the internet goes down).  Nice.

Charge To Room (Hotel PMS) Interface

FreePOS V5 has the ability to post charges to room/guest folios using a modular and

powerful driver system which can support RS232, TCP and file drop interfaces.

Programmable 24 Bit Color Schemes

FreePOS V5 has the ability to display fades, reseller logos & custom color schemes for better cosmetic appearance.  Also, you can change button graphics or even download completely new color schemes from our website!

Windows Embedded Support

FreePOS V5 can run on Windows Embedded.   This allows each POS station to be solid state with no moving parts.

Variable Coupon Generation

FreePOS V5 has the ability to print customizable coupons based on what was ordered on a check.

For example, if a hotdog is ordered, coupon #1 prints.  If a burger is ordered, coupon #2 prints.

You can even run a report by coupon type. 

Turn Your $2,500 Computer Into A Clock / Calculator!

The new touch screen calculator is great for basic math.

Below, curbside pick up is active.   You can even integrate FreePOS with cameras & wireless paging from LRS.   With this powerful expansion, motion detecting video alerts your server(s) when a car pulls in.  Hand held credit card processing & electronic signature capture bring the POS right to the customer's car!

Below, bar tabs are neatly organized by name.

Below, the touch screen typewriter allows users to quickly add comments & on the fly instructions.

Below, thousands of phone#'s can be stored and accessed from anywhere in the restaurant.   Place delivery orders with ease and print out delivery bag receipts and driver instructions in the kitchen if you wish.

Below, tables are color coded.  Blue means the table is open. Bright Red means the table is in use.  Dark Red means the table's check has been printed.  Green means the table is at the cashier.  Brown dish icons quickly identify which tables need to be bussed.  Our set up utility allows you to draw up to 6 seating charts in near photographic resolution.
