Allow your guests to see all items being entered into the Toast POS, directly on the drive-thru order confirmation screen!
Delphi Order Confirmation Screen (OCS) Overview
Delphi (by Toast) provides various hardware and software solutions for enterprise and SMB customers. Delphi's product offerings include an Order Confirmation Screen (OCS), which can be used to help increase order accuracy in your drive-thru. Leveraging Delphi's guest-facing display settings, the OCS allows guests to see all items being entered in the Toast POS directly on the drive-thru order confirmation screen.
To use the OCS, the following are required:
A fully paid sales agreement by the Delphi customer
Delphi Order Confirmation Screen package
Digital video encoder
+15 VDC power supply
Micro HDMI to standard HMDI cable
A Toast POS device. A single Toast POS device can power a single OCS. Each OCS must be connected to a Toast POS device
Delphi digital menu board or a Delphi Endura 15X outdoor display
Note: A Toast Insight Engage Platform license and account is required if using the OCS with a Delphi digital menu board. For more information, see Get Started With the Insight Engage Platform. If using the Delphi Endura 15X outdoor display, a Toast Insight Engage Platform license is not required.
If you have any questions or comments, contact your Toast account manager.
Delphi Order Confirmation Screen (OCS)
Delphi's OCS utilizes the video image generated from the guest-facing display (GFD) output on a Toast POS device to transmit the OCS display via Delphi's IP-NET video streaming technology. A video encoder converts the HDMI digital video from the Toast POS device to the OCS on a Delphi digital menu board or an Endura 15X outdoor display. If using the Delphi Endura 15X outdoor display, you only need to connect the video encoder and configure your guest display settings to start using the OCS.

Guest OCS Drive-thru Experience
Note: The experience described below assumes you have configured a standby image in Toast Web. Delphi Support recommends you configure a standby image for the OCS. For more information, see .
After you have configured and enabled drive-thru mode for your OCS, your guests will be able to use the OCS to view and confirm their order. Your guest drive-thru experience is as follows:
Your guest pulls up to your drive-thru. The standby image is visible on the Delphi digital menu board or Delphi Endura 15X outdoor display. The image below is an example of a standby image that would be displayed on a digital menu board or outdoor display.
Your guest places their order. As their order is being entered on the Quick Order screen on the Toast POS, the standby image is replaced with the OCS. The OCS displays your guest's order items as they are entered into the POS in real-time. The image below is an example of a guest order displayed on the OCS.
Once your guest has confirmed their order, the restaurant operator sends the order through the POS to the kitchen. Your guest can now proceed to the drive-thru's payment window. The OCS displays a thank you message for five seconds before the standby image appears. The standby image appears ready for the next guest in your drive-thru. The image below is an example of the thank you message displayed on the OCS.
