POS interface language — Paloma365 Classic (Windows POS)
This article is about Paloma365 Classic, the POS application for Windows: which languages the POS supports and how to switch the interface language.
Overview
The POS interface is available in four languages:
- Russian
- English
- Kazakh
- Uzbek
The language is a local setting of a specific POS computer: different registers of the same outlet can use different languages. The chosen language is kept after the POS restarts.
How to switch the language
- On the main POS screen press Settings and enter the settings password (see POS settings).
- Open the General settings tab.
- In the block under the «Language choice» label, open the drop-down list and pick the language: Russian, English, Kazakh or Uzbek.
- The settings window translates immediately. To make sure the whole POS interface switches, close the settings and restart the POS.
Common problems
I picked a language but some texts are still in another one
POS screens are translated as they open — restart the POS after changing the language so the whole interface switches. A few rare messages may stay in Russian: Russian is the program's base language and a small part of the texts is not fully translated.
The language changed on one register but not on the others
That is by design: the language is a local setting of each POS computer. Switch it on every register separately.
The POS "speaks" an unfamiliar language — how do I get back?
Open the settings (the settings button and the password window look the same in any language), first tab → the drop-down under the «Language choice» label → pick your language and restart the POS.
FAQ
Which languages does the POS support?
Russian, English, Kazakh and Uzbek.
Does the POS language change the language of receipts?
No — the language choice affects the program interface on this computer. Receipt content is defined by print form templates — see Receipt printing.
Does the POS language change the dashboard language?
No. The web dashboard language is configured separately in the dashboard itself; the POS setting does not affect it.
Is internet needed to switch the language?
No, translations are built into the program — the language switches offline too.
