# Connect POS, KDS, And Printers

> Connect POS to menus, printers, KDS screens, display screens, and mesh devices.

Connected devices decide where orders, kitchen tickets, receipts, and display updates go.

Open the POS device, go to `Config`, then use `Menu` and `Connected Devices`.

## Choose The Menu

Select the menu the POS should use.

The POS can only sell items from the selected menu.

## Connect Supporting Devices

Connect the printers, KDS screens, display screens, or mesh devices this POS should work with.

For example, a main cashier POS might connect to:

* Receipt printer.
* Kitchen KDS.
* Kitchen ticket printer.
* Customer display screen.

## Test After Connecting

Create a small test order and check:

1. The POS can see the menu.
2. The KDS receives kitchen items.
3. The receipt printer prints when expected.
4. Void and kitchen-ticket behavior matches the restaurant process.
