point microphone turn off when the vehicle is no longer detected.
VehicleDetector:PresenceorIgnored
When the vehicle detector is on (in presence mode), a car entering the order point is sensed and
the ordering system reacts according to the order taking mode. When the vehicle detector is off
(ignored), Automatic Listen, Automatic Talk, and Automatic Standby are unavailable. Only Outside
or Always On order taking modes are recommended when the vehicle detector cannot be used.
OrderPoint:UsedorNotUsed
When the order point is used, customers can order using any of the typical order taking
modes, with the exception of the Outside mode (see below for explanation).
Which Order Taking Mode to Select
Each order taking mode is designed for a specific purpose so you do not need to manually select the
modes for the individual components and potentially end up with a non-working configuration.
ML/PTT, ML/MLT, AL/PTT, AL/MLT, and Hands free should be selected for typical ordering
configurations where all of the drive thru employees are inside of the building and all of the equipment
is working properly. The choices between them tend to vary according to the number of people
available, how many duties they must perform simultaneously, and possibly employee preferences.
If you plan to have the order taker standing outside with a headset, Outside mode is the best
choice. The order point speaker, microphone, and vehicle detector are disabled. This allows
hands free communication to staff inside the store for order entry and/or special requests.
If the vehicle detector is not functioning properly, Always On mode is the best choice. The microphone
at the order point is on continuously, regardless of the status of the vehicle detector. Typically, when a
vehicle detector fails, it reports the presence of a vehicle continuously, which functions as (bookmark).
