    Aloha COM Inteface

    No documents on that. Generally you have to convince Aloha to build you a comm interface into there program to be able to access the files you need. Some camera systems out there use a comm interface that you may be able to piggy back off of. Considerably there are many comm interface companies...

    Aloha Credit Cards

    If you look around a little, you can upgrade Aloha EDC only. It is a special request, but it is a fact. Secondly, just upgrading Aloha does not make you compliant. There are several other elements. Go look at Visa's website to learn more about CISP compliance. In final, Aloha Manager minimum...

    Radiant P1210 LCD/Touch Screen Problem!

    Yes the bulbs can be replaced. They are very delicate, and make sure your soldering iron is not too hot. You also may want to consider an inverter board. Brad C.

    different prices for day and nighte with aloha 6.2

    As an additional note, in the Aloha hierarchy of pricing, in order for price changes to occur, the item on the sub menu MUST be set on "use item price", or a price level. Good luck!! :) Brad C.

    Aloha Report Error

    Eh eh eh... Yes it is a bug in Aloha, but you could have a corrupted trans.log, you could have too many dated subs in the Aloha drive, or in your newdata and data folder look for a file called DPST.txt. If you have that, it is your duplicating deposit. There are other fixes, before just...

    Integrating with Aloha

    Your dealer can build you an auto report that exports or prints reports on the EOD. The file they use is called "WINHOOK". It is a little difficult to build, but it does work! Comm interface is programs that Aloha partners build to interact directly with Aloha. A couple of them are Restar...

    Integrating with Aloha

    The aloha key's purpose is to have the ability to grind everything together to produce reports. There are several companies out there that offer comm interfaces to be able to produce the results that you are seeking. Another option if you are good with excel is to export the data into *.csv...

    Looking to buy Aloha terminal

    Check with your provider about refurbished equipment. Some dealers back it up with a warranty, and e-bay is a good place to look. The beauty of Aloha is that it can work on almost any sort of equipment. Depending on version, OS, etc. A 700 terminal is a good buy, but always refer to what you pay...

    Aloha 6.x Upgrade Worth the Cost?

    Taking advantage of the amnesty period is very important for the CISP compliance. It is still a moving target, although Aloha 6.x is quite a bit different then the version that you are currently using, and version 5.3.14 is the minimum requirement for compliance. My recommendation is to...

    ALOHA QS v5.3.26e GIFT CARD

    Aloha is equipped with a gift certificate solution. Your key may not be authorized for the BOH gift solution, so possibly that is why it will not work. Some credit card processors provide a solution, there are other companies that have a secondary machine that honors gift cards, but for the...

    Aloha Slow to Refresh

    Lets keep a few things simple here... Aloha and Micros are the top 2 POS systems in the world. Micros for PMS and Casinos, Aloha for hospitality, always battling for spot #1. EGI will not effect loading of the terminal. EGI turned on makes the screens paint going from screen to screen. I...
