1.1.5 Independent table layout 独立桌码

> This section introduces the "Child Table (Independent Table Code)" function, designed to handle table-sharing scenarios during peak dining hours. Once enabled, multiple groups of customers can share the same physical table while keeping their orders completely separate and independent. 本节介绍“独立桌码（子桌台）”功能，专为应对就餐高峰期的拼桌场景而设计。开启后，多组客人可以共享同一张实体桌台，同时他们的订单将保持完全独立，互不影响。

#### 1. Identify Occupied Tables 识别已占用桌台
Quickly determine if a table is currently occupied and how many groups are sharing it. 快速判断一张桌子当前是否已被占用，以及有几组客人在拼桌。

1. **Check Table Status (查看桌台状态)**: On the main POS interface, look for a fork-and-knife icon accompanied by a number (e.g., `x 1`) in the top right corner of the table block (like TEST1, TEST2, TEST3). 1. **查看桌台状态**：在 POS 主界面上，查看桌台区块（如 TEST1, TEST2, TEST3）右上角是否带有刀叉图标及数字（例如 `x 1`）。
