FAQ
After Caterlord starts, there will be a login UI to allow users to enter their personal passwords (Please refer to “How to manage users and authorisations?” about personal password settings)
By default, the password would be “8888”
Usually Caterlord will start up automatically when you turn on your PC.
You can also manually run:
- An application named “Run Server” on the Desktop;
- Then “Everyware POS” to start Caterlord
If there are no shortcuts on the Desktop, “Run Server” can also be found in C:\Everyware while “Everyware POS” locates in C:\Everyware\POS.Desktop
