Customizing the ExpressCheck Interface

Polaris provides two standard themes for ExpressCheck: the default theme and a theme that you can copy and customize. The customizable theme allows you to define the following variables:

• The library card image for the home page

• The display font

• The background color

• The header and footer color

• A folder full of icons that you can update or replace

• Sounds for checkout success and checkout error

To create a custom theme, you set up a custom theme folder, and add its path in the ExpressCheck Themes table in Polaris System Administration (web-based).

To select which theme an ExpressCheck workstation displays, use the Polaris ExpressCheck theme settings in Polaris System Administration (web-based). You can select a theme at the system, library, branch, and workstation levels.
