Game Console Billing. X10 Setup
Game Console Billing. NetPing Setup
TrueCafe supports billing of game consoles such as XBox, Nintendo, Sony PlayStation, etc.
The idea is that you buy special AC modules which you plug your game consoles monitors into. The software turns on a monitor when you start a customer session and turns it off when you stop it or the pre-paid time is over.
Contact www.insteon.com (they have an online chat on the website) and get:
1. InteOn Hub
2. A number of On/Off modules, one for every game console.
1. Install InsteOn Hub and On/Off modules. Plug in your game consoles monitors to the On/Off modules.
2. Download InsteOn command-line utility
Unzip it to some folder on your TrueCafe Server computer, for example C:\Tools.
1. Download and install TrueCafe
2. Open TrueCafe main menu > Setup > Terminals. Add your game consoles to the list specifying InsteOn modules names (A1, A2, etc.) in the IP address field:
Open TrueCafe main menu > Tools > Options > Script tab. Specify turn on/off scripts:
