How do I set up the KDS (kitchen display)?
Open admin.thmenu.com/kds on a kitchen tablet. Each item appears as a card.
The KDS — Kitchen Display System — replaces paper tickets in the kitchen.
- Put a tablet/old phone in the kitchen.
- Open
admin.thmenu.com/kdsin the browser and sign in. - New orders show up as cards automatically.
- Tap "Ready" — status flows to the waiter dashboard.
- "Served" — closes the order for that table.
Tip: keep the tablet screen always-on (disable auto-lock). The KDS polls every 5 s and auto-reconnects on dropouts.
