[Koha-oz] Self-checkout machines & Koha

[Catherine Kerrigan]

Hi Katherine!

We used FE Technologies for our self-checkout machine when we installed one and had lots of problems getting their software talking to Koha. Part of the problem stemmed from the fact that we were the first Koha installation they had done and they were a bit stymied by Koha's logic, but we did get it working eventually and I haven't upgraded either Koha or the self-check machine software since for fear of messing it up. It works beautifully now and we haven't had any problems since the installation.

I would suggest that, if you consider them as your vendor, check what other Koha installations they have done since then - ours was 2014. Also consider 3M - they apparently have a lot of experience with Koha in New Zealand.

Kind regards,

Catherine

To any libraries that use Koha and self-checkout machines, which machines did you choose to use and why?
The ANMF is moving into a new building later this year and while the machines are on the plans, the library has been asked to reconsider the need for self-checkouts.
I?m seeking advice about how difficult or easy the installation of the machines has been for other libraries.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Kathleen
