Smart Display System: The Intelligent Screen for Your Kitchen
No more lost paper tickets and forgotten orders. The digabloPos Smart Display System (SDS) shows every order in real time on a dedicated screen, for faster preparation and zero errors.
Real-Time Digital Tickets
As soon as an order is placed at the register or from the floor, it appears instantly on the preparation screen. Each ticket clearly shows the items to prepare, quantities, requested modifications, and special customer notes. The cook or bartender sees exactly what needs to be prepared, in the order received, without waiting for a server to bring a slip of paper. Communication between the floor and the kitchen becomes seamless and reliable.
- Instant order display as soon as they are placed
- Full détail: items, quantities, modifications, notes
- Automatic chronological ticket ordering
- Color coding to distinguish order types
- Real-time updates without manual refresh
Priority and Time Management
Wait time is the number one enemy of customer satisfaction in food service. The digabloPos SDS displays the elapsed time since each order was received, with a progressive color code that shifts from green to yellow to red. The head chef immediately identifies orders at risk of exceeding the acceptable wait time. Priority or urgent orders are flagged visually so they can be handled first.
- Built-in timer per ticket from the moment it is received
- Progressive color coding: green, yellow, red
- Mark orders as priority
- Visual alert for overdue orders
- Average preparation time calculated automatically
Multi-Station Preparation Support
A restaurant does not operate from a single prep station. The SDS lets you assign product categories to différent screens. The hot kitchen sees its dishes, the bar sees its drinks, the pastry station sees its desserts. Each station only receives the items that concern it, which eliminates confusion and speeds up preparation. A complex order is automatically split across the relevant stations.
- Product assignment by preparation station
- Each screen displays only its items
- Automatic multi-station order splitting
- Global view for the head chef or manager
- Flexible station configuration to match your setup
Preparation Validation and Tracking
When a dish is ready, the cook validates the item with a single touch. The server is notified that the order is ready to serve. The system records actual preparation times for each item, letting you analyze your kitchen performance and identify bottlenecks. Complete traceability of every order, from floor to service, is ensured.
- Validate by touching a single item or an entire ticket
- Server notification when the order is ready
- Recording of actual preparation times
- Complete history of every order

Use Cases
Full-Service Restaurant
The server takes the order on a tablet at the table. Instantly, dishes appear on the kitchen screen and drinks on the bar screen. The chef validates each dish when ready, and the server receives a notification to pick it up. Average wait time drops from 25 to 15 minutes.
Takeout Pizzeria
Orders arrive from the counter and are automatically sorted by arrival time. The pizza maker sees the elapsed time for each order and prioritizes those approaching the 20-minute threshold. At the end of the day, the manager reviews preparation time reports to adjust staffing schedules.
Cocktail Bar
The bartender sees only the drinks from each order, not the food items. Complex cocktails come with special notes (no ice, double shot, allergy). Touch validation informs the server that drinks are ready to be delivered to the table.
