The KDS Button Profile controls the operations that a display station can perform. Each display station has to define which operations it supports. A button profile is attached to a KDS Functional Profile.
To create a button profile
- Go to LS Hospitality – Kitchen Display System – KDS Profiles – KDS Button Profiles. Here you define the number of buttons, which indicate the number of operations that are needed for each display station. The display stations appear below.
- When you have created the button profile, you must configure the operations.
- In the Operation field on the Button Profile Operations FastTab, you select which operation should run. There are ten different options in the system.
- In the Key Mapping field you select which keyboard input should trigger the button. If you know the ASCII code, you can enter that instead and get the keyboard input.
