Piso WiFi Pause Time Machine: Turn On Pause as an Owner
Own a Piso WiFi vendo? The Pause button your customers want is a switch inside your 10.0.0.1 admin panel, not a customer setting. This 10.0.0.1 Piso WiFi pause time machine guide shows how to switch it on, set fair pause limits, and keep the button visible for every customer on LPB and AdoPiSoft.
Log in to your admin panel at 10.0.0.1/admin, open Portal Settings, and switch on the pause option for Insert Coin Mode and Voucher Code Mode. Save the change, and the Pause button appears on the portal of your 10.0.0.1 Piso WiFi pause time machine.
The exact menu names differ by firmware, but the flow is the same on every 10.0.0.1 Piso WiFi pause time machine. TP-Link Philippines documents the admin panel at 10.0.0.1/admin. The pause switch sits under Portal Settings or Session Controls, depending on whether you run LPB or AdoPiSoft.
Open the admin panel
Connect a phone or laptop to your machine's WiFi and open 10.0.0.1/admin in a browser. This address is separate from the customer portal at 10.0.0.1.
Sign in as administrator
Sign in with the login your vendo was set up with. If you have never changed them, read the admin panel login guide before you continue.
Find the pause switch
On LPB, go to Portal Settings, then Insert Coin Mode, then Pause/Resume Time. On AdoPiSoft, go to Settings, then User Portal Settings, then Session Controls, then Allow Pause Time.
Enable it for every payment mode
On LPB, pause is a separate switch under Insert Coin Mode and Voucher Code Mode. Turn on both if your machine takes coins and vouchers, or voucher customers will never see the button.
Set limits and save
Set the pause limits from the table below, then save. Open the customer portal on a phone to confirm the Pause button appears. This is the owner side of how customers pause at 10.0.0.1.
Which pause settings matter most?
Three settings control the feature: the pause switch, the maximum pause duration, and the minimum session time that allows a pause. Set all three before you save. The table shows what each pause time machine setting does and a sensible starting value.
Every 10.0.0.1 Piso WiFi pause time machine ships with pause limits you can tune. TP-Link Philippines lists the LPB maximum pause duration with a 60-minute default, adjustable from 10 minutes to 24 hours.

On
Maximum pause duration (LPB)
How long one pause lasts before the timer resumes by itself
60 minutes (LPB default; range 10 min to 24 hrs)
Minimum time to allow pause
Blocks pauses on sessions that are about to expire anyway
5 minutes
Pause count per session (AdoPiSoft)
The number of pauses allowed in one session
Keep your build's default; AdoPiSoft caps the count rather than the length

Running a home vendo setup? The same three settings apply. A 10.0.0.1 Piso WiFi pause time machine by your front door gets the same pause behaviour as one in a busy store once the switches match.
How long should you let customers pause?
Start with the 60-minute LPB default per pause. It covers a meal or an errand without letting a session sit paused all day. Shorten it to 30 minutes on a busy machine; abandoned sessions usually expire within 24 hours anyway.
Think about your spot. A vendo outside a canteen serves quick breaks, so 30 minutes fits. A machine on a quiet street serves longer errands, so the 60-minute default fits better. Every 10.0.0.1 Piso WiFi pause time machine lets you change this later, so start strict and loosen it if customers ask.
Why is the Pause button missing for customers?
The feature is off, the limits are misconfigured, or the firmware does not support it. Check the pause switch first, then confirm both coin and voucher modes on LPB. No browser trick can show a button your pause time machine has switched off.
Walk the list in order: the pause switch is on, the right payment modes are enabled, and the limits allow a pause right now. If everything looks right and the button still hides, the firmware build of your 10.0.0.1 Piso WiFi pause time machine may not support pausing. Work through troubleshooting pause next.
Should you change the admin password first?
Yes. Do it before you touch any other setting. Anyone who knows the factory login can open your 10.0.0.1/admin panel from your WiFi and change your rates. Pick a long password you do not use anywhere else, and store it somewhere safe.
The pause time machine software ships with a factory admin login. Those defaults are widely documented online. Change them the day the machine goes live, from inside the same admin panel. This password is separate from the password prompts customers see on the portal.
Where does this information come from?
Every fact here comes from a public source: TP-Link Philippines' pause time guide, the LPB operator login guide, the PisoFi operator guide, and independent setup guides for the LPB and AdoPiSoft admin menus. Each one is linked below so you can check it.
What else do owners ask about the pause time machine?
These six answers cover whether customers need an app, the missing Pause button, sensible pause limits, how AdoPiSoft differs from LPB, abandoned sessions, and whether to enable pause on a new 10.0.0.1 Piso WiFi pause time machine.
Pause time machine FAQs
Do customers need anything installed to use pause?
No. Pause works on the portal page at 10.0.0.1 in any browser. Your job as the owner is only to switch the feature on in the admin panel.
Why can't my customers see the Pause button?
The pause switch is off, or you enabled it under Insert Coin Mode but not Voucher Code Mode on LPB. Both are separate switches, so turn on each mode your 10.0.0.1 Piso WiFi pause time machine sells.
What is a sensible maximum pause time?
Sixty minutes is the LPB default and a good starting point. Use 30 minutes on a busy machine. The setting accepts 10 minutes to 24 hours.
Does AdoPiSoft handle pauses differently?
Yes. AdoPiSoft caps the number of pauses per session instead of the pause length. Check the Session Controls screen on your build for the exact limit.
Can a paused session run forever?
No. Abandoned sessions usually expire within 24 hours on both LPB and AdoPiSoft, so an unpaid pause cannot block your machine for long.
Should I enable pause on a new machine right away?
Yes, if your firmware supports it. Customers expect the button, and it costs you nothing: paused time is time they already paid for. Set your limits first, then switch it on from the admin panel of your pause time machine.
Which Piso WiFi guides should you read next?
Log in to the admin panel next if you have not changed its password yet, or tour the customer portal to see the Pause button your settings control. Start with whichever side needs work today.
Check the customer portal from a phone on your machine's WiFi, or fix it when customers cannot see the button on your 10.0.0.1 Piso WiFi pause time machine.
