Gaming floor · Module 05
Table Inspector
Record table openings, checks, fills, credits, dropbox activity and game results at the gaming table.
Overview
What this module does
The Inspector is the table-side workspace for recording table state and player activity. It supports the operational steps that later appear in Table Tracking and player-session views.
Staff can open a table, update its check float, register Dropbox In, Chips In / Out, rolling, minimum / average / maximum bets, game pace and participation rate, and record results. The Inspector can request a fill or credit from the Cash Desk, then confirm that chips or a chip box have been received. It can also manage dropbox status. The source describes personal contactless staff cards and PIN codes for quick dealer and Inspector authorization, plus Opener / Closer procedures. The Everest Black deck describes this module as running on a compact computer at the gaming table.

Connected workflow
How it fits into Everest
A fill request goes from Inspector to Cash Desk; after delivery, the Inspector confirms it. A credit follows the same request-and-confirm pattern, with the cashier sending an empty chip box and the Inspector returning chips. Confirmed entries feed Table Tracking.
