Live Digital Menu Boards

Forget USB sticks and static images. TableCore turns your Smart TVs into live, data-driven menu boards.

What is "Middleware" mode?

Our "Middleware" feature allows the POS to act as the central brain for all your screens.

**Real-Time Sync**: If you 86 an item on the POS, it disappears from the wall screen instantly.
**Dynamic Pricing**: Change a price during Happy Hour? The screen updates automatically.
**Multi-Screen**: Daisy-chain multiple screens (Screen 1: Burgers, Screen 2: Drinks).

How to Setup

1**Hardware**: Any Smart TV with a browser, or a standard HDMI screen with a FireStick/Chromecast.

2. Configuration:

* Go to Admin > Marketing > Screens.

* Create a "Board" (e.g., "Lunch Main").

* Select the Menu Categories to display.

3. Launch:

* Open the unique URL provided (e.g., `tablecore.app/board/lunch-main`).

* Set the browser to Full Screen (F11 / Kiosk Mode).

Advanced Features

**Video Interstitials**: Upload 10-second promo videos to interrupt the menu every 3 minutes.
**Takeover Mode**: Trigger a "Fresh Cookies Now!" takeover from the POS terminal manually.
