ExpressCheck Installation Guide – Base Setup
Version 2.01 – November 06, 2025
The following are the prerequisites for installing ExpressCheck:
Follow the procedures in the POS-Specific Installation Guide to configure the POS system before installing the software. As soon as the software is installed, it will activate and use the settings configured on the POS in this step.
Download or copy the ExpressCheck installer to the desktop.
If this system is running the POS backoffice or main server software for the POS, then the ExpressCheck Lightweight Brain should be installed from Step 3. Note: This should only be done on one server per location.
Click “Will be installed on local hard drive”, then click “Next”.
When the “Venue Registration” dialog is displayed, click on the drop down selection for the “Installation Type” and select “Production”. (“Development” should only be used by CityCheers staff, for testing purpose)
If this is the first time installing ExpressCheck for your venue, then check the “New Venue” check box and enter the Venue information in the “Venue Registration” page and the “Username and Password” from the credentials e-mail you should have received when your venue was ready for activation:
If ExpressCheck has already been installed for the venue before, then do not check the “New Venue” button and just enter the “Username and Password” and then click “Next”.
Click “Install” and the rest of the installation will complete automatically. When the installation is finished, click “Finish”.
Once the software is installed, there will be various images that can be used to place on a button for activating ExpressCheck. Button images will be in the ExpressCheck Program folder (specified during installation) “c:Program Files (x86)CityCheersMediaExpressCheck”. Refer to the POS-specific installation guide for the instructions on how to configure the button for a specific POS type. Here is an example:
Repeat the software installation steps 2-6, skipping step 3, for any remaining terminal systems that will be used to assign tickets to ExpressCheck patrons.
