openLN Guides / RIC

RIC screens, frame by frame

Every animated screen of the RIC payment terminal, rendered frame by frame from the device's own firmware: receive and send flows, card issue and wipe, BLE pairing, WiFi connect, and firmware update. Each section shows one representative still at large size, and a strip of evenly spaced frames from the same animation underneath.

01Payment received (full flow)

The full received payment, start to finish. The machine shows Processing payment with orange gears turning around a lightning bolt hub, then Confirming payment and Settling over Lightning with the amount (35 sats) at the bottom and bitcoin coins being pulled into the machine, then Finishing up. Do not tap again. while the wallet commits, and finally the full-screen green success: a white check badge, 35 sats, and Payment received. Appears after a customer taps an openLN card and the Lightning invoice settles. The 35 sats shown here is the preview's sample amount; a real device shows the real invoice amount.

02Large payment (125,000 sats)

A larger sale, showing the five-figure amount path. The same confirming flow: Confirming payment, Settling over Lightning, and 125,000 sats (the thousands separator is drawn by hand), then the received celebration with the amount counting up to 125,000 sats and Payment received.

Appears whenever the unit is not yet linked, on first boot or after the WiFi credentials were wiped from the connect screen. It runs until the device is linked, and a real device shows its own BLE name.
