The LS Central AppShell settings icon
LS Central AppShell is an app to open the LS Central POS. The app allows the POS to be connected to peripherals via Bluetooth or WiFi.
The LS Central Hardware Station (referred to as HWS from now on) runs only on Windows. This means that the POS, started in LS Central AppShell, has to connect to a HWS running on a Windows machine. With the LS Central AppShell, the POS can also connect to peripherals through the LS Central AppShell's own HWS.
