About DISH POS Lite
What is DISH POS Lite?
DISH POS Lite (DPL) is a simplified POS system designed for small businesses.
It includes:
- POS touchscreen
- Built-in printer
- Backoffice (browser-based)
- Integrated network (miniserver + Wi-Fi)
The maximum distance between the miniserver and the POS screen is 5 meters. These two devices should be placed in the same area.
DISH POS Lite is intentionally limited to ensure easy setup and daily use without configuration.
Â
What is the difference between DISH POS Lite and DISH POS?
DISH POS Lite:
- The miniserver is connected by a LAN cable to the internet
- Uses its own Wi-Fi connection via the miniserver (SSID: Eijsink-H0085xxx) to connect the POS screen and the payment device.
- Does not support external hardware (e.g. additional printers or PIN terminals)
- Offers only core POS functionalities
This ensures a stable and simple setup.
