The entry-level package of Tillypad XL must include at least one computer to work with Tillypad XL Manager and Tillypad XL POS. Larger systems can include multiple computers, which can each operate one or both of these systems (Tillypad XL Manager and/or Tillypad XL POS).

To manage computers within the Tillypad XL system, use the Computers directory.

Information about computers can be entered into the directory manually or automatically when you begin working with Tillypad XL Manager and/or Tillypad XL POS. The system only automatically adds data about computers not appearing in the directory.

The data is entered on the computer via connected input devices (keyboards, readers, scales). In order to be able to enter data using such devices, you need to:

  • add information about the input device to the Devices directory,

  • specify this device in the Computers directory as an input device for this computer.
