CASH DRAWERS

CASH DRAWERS:
A cash drawer is a storage device to hold coins and cash bills when a transaction has taken place at the Point of Sale. Cash drawers are usually connected to the base of a cash register or point of sale equipment. The drawer is divided into separate compartments for notes and coins for ease of use. Most cash drawers have plastic compartments for coins and notes of like denominations, which allow a cashier to quickly locate and dispense change back to the customer. Cash drawers are made of rugged steel, employ durable drawer sliding tracks, and come with the high quality rock. Typically, each cash drawer is shipped with two keys on a ring.
A cash drawer is a simple device that slides in and out of a lockable box for safety and speed. It is usually of strong construction and may be integrated into the body of a cash register or housed as a separate unit. It slides in and out of its lockable box and is secured by a spring-loaded catch. When the transaction is completed, the register sends an electrical impulse to a solenoid to release the catch and open the drawer.
Nearly all cash drawers have a manual release catch underneath to open the drawer in the event of a power failure.
The cash drawer is a necessary component in any POS System. Most cash drawers are printer driven. Each receipt printer manufacturer has a unique cash drawer interface, making each cash drawer printer-specific. Cash drawers with interchangeable connector cables allow a single cash drawer to support any receipt printer provided the correct connector cable is used. Cash drawers may also be attached independently via serial or parallel port.
Normally, the Cash Drawer is connected to a Receipt Printer with RJ-11 connector or directly attached to the POS terminal's Serial (COM Port). Most of existing POS software has pre-programmed with command to link with the cash drawer and kick the drawer out.

Types of Cash Drawers:
USB Cash Drawer
Serial Cash Drawer
Manual Cash Drawer
