To charge the battery:
• Make sure battery pack is properly seated in i7910.
• Plug the power adapter into the wall outlet and into
the power connector at the back of i7910 terminal.
Use the power adapter supplied with i7910. Many
adapters can appear similar and will plug into i7910 but
will not work properly causing erratic behavior, poor
charging or damage to the unit.
The i7910 with a fully charged battery can perform up to
200 transactions (depending of the ticket size,
transaction duration, time between transactions and
backlight usage).
The battery status is updated on the i7910 display (the
indicator depends of the application running on i7910):
1 bar represents 25 % of full capacity,
2 bars represent 50 % of full capacity,
3 bars represent 75 % of full capacity,
4 bars represent full capacity.
- Do not short-circuit batteries.
- Do not open or alter batteries’ outside structure.
- Do not expose battery to fire, do not heat it.
- Do not expose battery to liquid, do not freeze it.
Store batteries at 40% charge level in a cool and dry area.
The recommended storage temperature is 15°C (59°F).
Re-charge them to 40% every 3 to 4 months.

OPTIONAL LinkBox and ComBox MODULES
These modules provide additional connections:
contacts on the battery and on the terminal with a damp cloth
Do not scratch or scrape the surface of the contacts.
• If the print quality deteriorates, clean the print head to
remove accumulated paper dust. The print head must be
cleaned with the terminal powered off, using ethanol
LinkBox provides a back-up dial connection (asynchronous
and synchronous, V22bis or V34) and powered RS-232 port.
ComBox provides two RS-232 ports, one of them powered
(port marked RS232-2 provides power for the attached
device).
Connect LinkBox or ComBox to the i7910 RS-232 port,
the letters “TOP” on a connector must be facing up. The
green light (LinkBox only) indicates modem is ready. The
light becomes red while dial connection is used.
Connecting LinkBox to a telephone line: Plug the one end
of a telephone cable into the port marked
, and plug the
other end of a telephone cable into a wall telephone jack.
Attaching device to LinkBox or ComBox RS-232 port:
Connect the serial cable to the RS-232 port. Plug the other
end of the serial cable to the device (PC, ECR, bar code or
check reader etc.).
4. Normal Operation:
Depending of the application installed in the terminal, i7910
displays icons indicating:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to
try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
