below 10% for extended periods of time as this may permanently diminish the
battery capacity. Recharge the battery by attaching the micro-USB end of the
power pack to the terminal and plugging the other end of the power pack into a
wall outlet.
Battery Behavior
The terminal shifts to power pack mode and starts up automatically when the
terminal is connected to a non-battery power source, regardless of the battery
charge state.
Manual Startup
Hold the green key down for about 4 seconds until the terminal displays the
startup screen. The time required to hold the green key down to power up the
terminal is configurable (for more information, see the VX 690 Reference Guide,
VPN
DOC260-004-EN). The terminal lights up once power is on.
Manual Shutdown
Hold the red key down for about 4 seconds until the terminal displays the
shutdown verification screen. The time required to hold the red key down to shut
down the terminal is configurable (for more information, see the VX 690
Reference Guide, VPN
DOC260-004-EN).
Connecting the
Terminal to
Power Source
The terminal is either powered by an external power pack or the single cell Li-ion
rechargeable battery, which can be charged in the terminal by the AC/DC power
pack through the micro USB connector.
When you have finished installing the necessary cards and/or optional devices,
you are ready to connect the terminal to the power source.
NOTE
The VeriFone copyright screen starts and displays a unique copyright screen
once the terminal loads an application. However,
DOWNLOAD NEEDED appears on
screen after the initial VeriFone copyright screen if there is no available
application in the terminal.
WARNING
Do not connect the terminal to the power supply until all peripherals are attached.
Using an incorrectly rated power supply can damage the unit or cause it not to
work properly. Use only a power pack with P/N PWR260-001-XX-A. See
Specifications for detailed power supply specifications.
Do not plug the power pack into an outdoor outlet or operate the terminal
outdoors. Also, disconnecting power during a transaction can cause unstored
data files to be lost.
NOTE
To protect against possible damage caused by lightning strikes and electrical
surges, VeriFone recommends installing a power surge protector.
