Devices
The Devices page allows you to manage your devices in one convenient location. On the devices page you can view all the devices in your account, whether they are online or offline, sync your devices, add new devices, create device groups, and access the device settings.
- Log into the Catalog App Manager (CAM).
-
Click Devices in the top navigation menu.
Manage Devices
The Devices screen allows you to manage every device connected to your Catalog App Manager from one convenient location. The left side of this screen displays a list of all devices connected to your account.
This list includes the name of each device, whether it is online or offline, and which device group it is assigned to. Use the search fields above each column to filter devices by Status, Name, or Device Group.
Add a New Device
- Click Add New Device to add a new device to your account. This is where you will enter the pairing code for your device and select the device group from which to inherit settings.
Learn more about installing and pairing the Catalog App.
Manage Device Groups
- Log in to my.catalogkiosk.com.
- Click Devices in the top navigation.
- The right side of the Devices screen displays a list of device groups.
A device group allows you to apply the same customization settings to a group of devices. Account administrators can create as many device groups as needed for the management of an account.
When you first log in to your Catalog App Manager and navigate to the Devices screen, you will notice that a default device group is already established for you.
Groups are also an effective way to manage devices in multiple stores from one central account. Simply create a device group for each store location to easily apply the same settings to all devices in a store.
For simplicity, we recommend you edit settings on the device group level whenever possible. On a individual device's settings page, click Go to Group Settings to edit the device's group settings instead.
Add a New Group
To add a new device group:
- Log in to my.catalogkiosk.com.
- Click Devices in the top navigation.
- Click Create Group to the right of the Device Groups heading.
- Enter the information for your new device group, then click Finish.
Customize Device Group Settings
- Log in to my.catalogkiosk.com.

Each label has a different cart icon that displays in accordance with the label chosen. - Cart Timeout - The cart timeout determines how long the kiosk retains the items in the cart before resetting and clearing the cart if the customer has walked away.
- Cart Email Addresses - Set the email address where you would like to receive all orders that are submitted through the kiosk (usually the sales associate that is entering the order into the point of sale system). You can add as many email addresses as you need by adding a comma between each address entered.
