Replace and Add New PC in iMerchant

Updated on

Each PC needs to be registered with iMerchant's PC Settings .

If you are retiring an old PC it needs to be removed, freeing up a license so you can add the new PC.

To Remove an old PC:

Go To: Tools > Administration > PC Settings

  • Find the old PC in the list and select properties.
  • If you are not logged into the PC you are removing, you will receive a warning message telling you iMerchant cannot figure out the devices that exist on the PC.
  • From the Menu Bar select Edit > Delete.
  • This will  remove the old PC and open up a license.

To Add the New PC (assuming iMerchant has been installed on the new PC):

  • Launch iMerchant on the new PC, and log in as imadmin.
    • You will receive a message that the PC is not registered, and be given the option of adding it now.
    • Go To: Tools > Administration > PC Settings
    • Click on the New button
      • Since you are logged into the new PC, iMerchant will default the correct PC name in the new dialog for you.
      • Continue filling out the property form by assigning the appropriate printers and register information.
      • PC Name is the only required field.
  • Log out and log in as a regular user to confirm the settings
