A dedicated kitchen screen
Show kitchen tickets on a connected display positioned for the team preparing the food.
KITCHEN DISPLAY · CHENNAI
Kitchen display system for Chennai restaurants
A kitchen display gives your team a shared view of open tickets. Keep the order visible while it is being prepared, even after its paper KOT has printed.
See it in a demoIN EVERYDAY SERVICE
Less running around.
More working together.
Open tickets stay visible
The screen reads open orders separately from the print queue, so printing a KOT does not remove it from the display.
Readable across the room
Adjust the display and text size to suit the screen and the distance your kitchen staff work from it.
Works with kitchen alerts
Pair the visual ticket view with KOT printing and optional arrival sounds or spoken item announcements.
PICTURE YOUR NEXT SERVICE
A familiar restaurant moment.
The printer produces a ticket and the cook pins it near the preparation area. The open order also stays on the kitchen display, giving the rest of the team a shared reference during service.
Illustrative workflow, not a customer testimonial.Let’s check your setup
Bring these details to your demo:
- A screen location with a clear line of sight
- Your display connection and available power
- An order test from the dining floor to the kitchen
TRY IT WITH YOUR TEAM
Five checks for your kitchen display demo
Run these checks outside live service with your captain, kitchen operator and cashier. Use your own screen, viewing position and sample menu; record the order reference and what each person actually sees.
Print a ticket and find the same order on screen
Open a training table with two dosas and one coffee. Identify its table or order reference on the kitchen display, then print the KOT. The open ticket should remain available on screen after printing. Add another coffee and compare the current order with the kitchen view: the final quantities are two dosas and two coffees. Confirm that the new quantity is visible before treating the update as received.
Try a long order from the cook’s working position
Use five distinct sample dishes, including your longest item name and one supported item note. Check whether the chosen layout shows every line or summarises additional items. Ask the cook how they will obtain the full preparation detail when a card is abbreviated. Adjust the display settings and repeat from the actual work position. A readable first line does not prove that the complete order can be followed.
Fill the screen with several training tickets
Open enough sample orders to exceed a single screen of cards. Watch any compact layout and page rotation in the demonstrated configuration. Ask the operator to locate the oldest order, a newly added order and the five-dish ticket without assistance. Record what stays visible, what requires waiting for another page and whether the team needs paper tickets alongside the screen. Do not infer that a hidden card has been completed.
Separate leaving the display from finishing the food
The open-order feed excludes paid or cancelled records and follows the restaurant order lifecycle. A ticket disappearing is not proof that its food was cooked, served or collected. Use the supported test procedure to complete or cancel a practice order, observe the display update and agree the staff handoff that confirms preparation. If your process requires an explicit ready or collected action, ask to see that exact capability before relying on it.
Check what staff do when updates stop
Agree a supervised connection test with the demonstrator, away from live service. An interrupted update can leave the previous tickets visible, so a lit screen alone does not establish that it contains the latest order. Compare a known sample change at the counter and kitchen, record the last confirmed instruction and follow the agreed paper or verbal handoff until updates are verified again. Inspect existing records before resending an uncertain order to avoid duplicate preparation.
Keep a kitchen display test log
Record the counter instruction and the kitchen observation separately, including the last confirmed update and the agreed fallback. The worksheet follows the five checks above and includes a blank retest row. Use fictional order references; do not enter customer details or payment credentials. This is a staff worksheet, not a software import file.

YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
A little more detail.
Need to talk through your setup?
Call the DeccanPro team
Is a kitchen display the same as a KOT printer?
No. A KOT printer produces a paper ticket; a kitchen display shows open orders on a screen. Your restaurant can use both together.
Do we need a separate display?
You need a suitable screen for the kitchen and a supported connection to the POS setup. We can review the screen and placement during your demo.
Does a ticket disappearing mean the food is ready?
No. The kitchen display follows open orders; paid or cancelled records are excluded from that feed. Staff must separately confirm preparation and collection. Demonstrate any ready-status workflow you require rather than assuming that disappearance means completion.
Can an old order remain visible if the connection stops updating?
Yes, the display can retain its previous tickets during an interrupted update. Confirm a known order change at the counter and kitchen before relying on the screen as current. Agree a fallback communication process during the demonstration.
