Plugins
Plugins are stored inside the plugins folder. If you do not want to try plugins you can delete them from the plugins folder. If you do not want to load it, you can also press “default” mode which will load POS without plugins.
Start ORO POS for the first time
In both windows, Linux or Mac platform you can start our POS with the following command in the terminal.
java -jar oropos.jar
The command will require you have Oracle Java 8 version loaded in your system. If you do not have Java 8, you can download it from here. We have included Java 8 for windows platform so you can directly click on the oropos.exe application icon to start POS.
In Windows Platform
Click on oropos.exe file. It may a few minutes to run it for the first time. If by mistake you run multiple instance of POS, keep only one of them running.
In Mac or Linux
Open a terminal and start ORO POS with the following command
java -jar oropos.jar
You can also give executable permission to oropos.sh and run.
You need to install Oracle JDK 8. Please note that some linux distro ships with OpenJDK. ORO POS may not run properly on OpenJDK. Make sure folders have read-write permission.

Demo License is generated on email. So use a valid email in lower case. Do not use fake or disposable emails because that may permanently lock down your terminal license. If you have not received any PIN in 24 hours you can email helpdesk @orocube.net
