CCTV Integration

I imagine the basic option would be the till would send whole ticket to cctv on payment like a printer

Yeah this is what I have seen with other POS software

@JTRTech

was hoping to have a full action log, ie, cancelled, void, login, payment and change etc.

I think this is a good idea

@JTRTech

each ‘print overrides the previous overlay’

Maybe check if there is a command reference somewhere for the CCTV and if you can possibly override that setting, then it may be able to keep “history” on screen like you are trying to implement yourself thus saving you the trouble.

@JTRTech

have since been trying to have 1-8 program settings and after printing it moves 1 to 2, 2 to 3, 3 to 4 etc so the next one goes into 1 and template shows all settings giving the effect of a virtical tickertape style log.

There would be cleaner ways of doing that - you could save JSON data to a program setting, or you could store each item as a delimited list in the program setting which you can then easily convert to and from a JavaScript Array and more easily manipulate it.
