Setting up tablets for check-in
Churchteams can setup any tablet to use during the check-in process.
1. Create the classes you want to check kids into. (Groups & Events > Create)
2. Set up the label printers - use the label printer instructions page under the check-in button.
3. Create or edit the check-in view (Check-In > Views/Setup) to include the classes you created and options on name tags that you want. To connect your created groups to the check-in view, click on "Groups" located to the right of the Check-In View name.
4. At the printing station (PC or Mac), log in by clicking the white "Check-in Login" button on the User login page, and then enter the Check-in password, which can be located under Settings > Users. Select Family Check-In, choose your View, then "Start a Printer station - Share printer with other devices" and give the printing station a name. It is now ready to print labels sent from tablets.
5. On your tablet, log in with the check-in password. Select Family Check-In, choose the same view, then select "Use a Printer Station - For tablets / other browsers" and select the name of the printing station you want to associate with that tablet, and click OK.
IMPORTANT: On your first print from the tablet, watch the address bar on the PC to see if it is blocking the print dialogue pop-up box, and if it is, click on it and allow that website. The next time you print, it will work properly.
