Merchants Track In-store Theft and Sleep Better at Night
Product: DataTap-IP
Company: LAVA Computer MFG Inc.
The odds against merchants don't sound promising: On average, only one out of every 50 shoplifters is ever caught, and that's not even considering the amount of theft and "breakage" that can be attributed to employees.
With slim profit margins and increased security concerns, restaurant and retail location owners shouldn't have to worry that every time they're not present, their employees are helping themselves to the till.
LAVA Computer MFG just improved the merchants' odds. This company provides a wide range of serial port and connectivity solutions for the POS, as well as for kiosks, the gaming and hospitality industries and more.
LAVA Computer has introduced a solution that enhances security and theft surveillance at the POS by tapping into the receipt printer's data stream.
The DataTap-IP takes it a step further by adding the text of transaction data onto video images from POS surveillance. Transaction data goes simultaneously to the serial printer and to a digital video recorder (DVR) in the form of readable text.
DataTap-IP is engineered for POS cash register/DVR integration; enabled simultaneous receipt printing and text/video overlay; has universal compatibility; and operates transparently.
Features include 10 Base-T Ethernet interface (RJ-45); intuitive installation and easy Web browser configuration; client or server operation; user-configurable, removable printer; password protection; support for IP, HTTP, TCP, UDP; and power supply.
The system gives merchants the ability to see transaction data at the same time as video surveillance and helps them determine whether employees are voiding receipts, taking money or undercharging customers.
