Part 9
application of the keyboard requires no software driver and is free from any software compatibility issue. The system integrator can program the content of the keyboard for the application software following the technical guidance of Posiflex keyboard programming utilities.
BARCODE SCANNER (OPTION)
Modern barcode scanners applied in POS business are of KB interface type. Most of them provide both a male and a female PS/2 KB connector. Therefore it can be connected either to the bottom of the Posiflex programmable keyboard with the cable fit into the strain relief groove or in between the PS/2 KB port of the system unit and the Posiflex programmable keyboard. The only consideration is that in programming stage of the programmable keyboard, nothing (including the barcode scanner) should come in between the system and the programmable keyboard. However, this should be no problem in application phase.
When a KB interface barcode scanner is installed in HT-2012 or HT ­2212 (no touch panel), a connection of a normal PS/2 keyboard or the Posiflex programmable keyboard could become obligatory by some OS. Therefore, if there will be no keyboard installed for such OS, it is advisory to use an USB interface type barcode scanner instead of the PS/2 KB interface type.
PRINTER (OPTION)
There are many models of Posiflex POS printers that can be applied in HT system. These printers cover several interface technologies. Please connect the printer to a COM port, the LPT port or an USB port in the main connection area depending on the printer model and then connect its power adaptor. It is also possible to control a Posiflex wireless POS printer by connecting a separately purchased wireless Dongle to one of the COM ports in HT system.
CASH DRAWER (OPTION)
The RJ11 connector in main connection area of a HT system can be used for controlling most of the common cash drawers available on the market. However, it is recommended that the Posiflex CR-3100 or CR-3200 or CR­4000 or CR-4100 or CR-4210 be used for best compliance.
The HT system will directly control the cash drawer using the cash drawer port (CR) both to operate the opening mechanism and to monitor the drawer open status. Both functions may be accomplished under software control of the COM1 serial port.
Use the cable supplied with the CR-3X00/4X00 cash drawer (Part No. CCBLA-180) for connection to the CR port in HT system. This cable has a 6­pole plug at one end and an 8-pole plug at the other. The 8-pole plug should be inserted into the connector marked: “signal cable from POS Printer” at the rear of the cash drawer. The 6-pole plug should be inserted in the connector marked
Part 10
“CR” found in the main connection area in the system.
The user may also use the optional 2-in-1 cash drawer control cable CCBLA-238 to control 2 cash drawers in 1 port. It has a 6-pole plug at one end and two 8-pole plugs at the other. The 6-pole plug should be inserted in the connector marked “CR” found in the main connection area in the system. Each 8-pole plug should be inserted into the connector marked “signal cable from POS Printer” at the rear of one of the cash drawers. The cable lengths for the two 8-pole plugs are different. Use the shorter one for the original cash drawer “CR1” and use the longer one for the extended cash drawer “CR2” that will be distinguished by the software command.
OPERATING SYSTEM RECOVERY
The operating system exists in the HDD in top of the system unit. Once the software system on HDD collapses, it is possible to restore the operating system onto a physically intact HDD with use of the Recovery CD that comes with the preloaded operating system. Please follow the instruction from your system integrator for system / software restoration. Follow the instructions below for operating system recovery only if your system integrator does not advise otherwise.
For the HT system preloaded with Windows system on HDD, Posiflex provides recovery CD delivered with the hybrid terminal for the preloaded operating system. The System Integrator shall take care of software restoration after OS recovered. Use a Posiflex supplied USB interface external CDROM drive for such action. Other brand CDROM drive may require its specific driver different from what supported in the recovery CD.
Please use the recovery CD in rescue operation only. Using it
otherwise may wipe out whatever stored in the HDD! All upgrade devices
drivers needed for manual installation in usual way are available in the subfolder “\drivers” in OS recovered HDD and the latest versions of these required drivers will be available on our web: http://www.posiflex.com
or
http://www.posiflex.com.tw.
Now please follow instructions from your system integrator for
software recovery after OS recovery and driver installation.
OPERATING SYSTEM INSTALLATION
This product is highly professionalized equipment. The installation of an OS into a machine without any preloaded OS could constitute major difficulty for average user who either has barely limited technical knowledge of this professionalized equipment or is insufficiently equipped with necessary facilities to accomplish such a task. Therefore, installation of an OS into a system without preloaded OS is highly discouraged. Posiflex shall not be responsible for any technical support to questions arisen due to non-preloaded OS.
Part 11
USING THE HT SYSTEM
BEFORE POWER ON – A Check List
It is very important that you check the following operational points:
Ventilation
This terminal must NOT be operated in an environment with restricted ventilation. There must be at least 25 mm air clearance around any top or side ventilation holes with a free flow of air around the unit at ALL times for the installation.
Operating Environment
The equipment must not site in direct sunshine, near a heater or in a damp and must be free from contaminants like dust, smoke or fume.
The equipment must not be operated or stored in extremes of both temperature and humidity/moisture.
(Operating range 0°C to + 35°C and up to 80% relative humidity – non condensing max. wet bulb 26°C)
Power Supply
The operating voltage of the power supply should be checked to confirm that it is set within the range of the local power supply. The power cable, the power outlet and any power fusing arrangements must conform to local safety regulations.
UPS Battery (option)
General care:
The UPS battery is consumable beyond product warranty. Please definitely observe the alerts in beginning of this manual. If the equipment is to be powered off for more than few days , please always disconnect the battery from the system. Reconnect it and turn on the system to recharge the battery
for 1 ~ 2 hours every 3 months for temperature lower than 30°C. Recharge for 1 ~ 2 hours every month for temperature over 30°C. Temperature above 40°C
must be strictly avoided as it could cause termination of battery life and unexpected result even if the battery is not in work. The UPS battery can support basically the data preservation and smooth running of the system during intermittent or few minutes (2 ~ 6 min. depending on loading and battery condition) power failure.
Battery replacement:
In the preloaded OS for a HT-2000 series, there is a built in utility Posiflex Power Switch Manager that will indicate the UPS battery status of the battery. When an installed UPS battery is found to be disabled or when pop up warning message like this picture appears, please
Part 12
replace the used up UPS battery at power off as soon as possible.
Emergency treatment:
The battery is constructed maintenance free and leakproof. Its storage space in HT system also provides very good protection as long as the ambient temperature remains below 30°C and the ventilation of the HT system remains free. However, should any accident happen and the sulfuric acid from the battery spills on skin or clothing, wash immediately with water. If the acid comes in contact with eyes, rinse eyes with large amount of clean water and see a doctor immediately. A larger external battery may be connected to give an extended operation. Please check your dealer about this capability when required.
WARNING:
If there are any signs of over charging or leakage of electrolyte please contact your dealer immediately
VGA Display Port
The VGA port in the HT terminal can be connected to an external (secondary) monitor with independent power arrangement.
The video memory of this port shares from the system memory. The video memory size can be set in the BIOS CMOS setting to match the user’s application.
Serial Port – COM1
For the HT system installed with the UPS function module, a COM1 terminator will also be supplied. Please always occupy COM1 serial port by a suitable serial device or this terminator. If this port is left vacant or connected with something like a mouse, the power switch management and the cash drawer control may fail to work correctly. An RS232 MODEM is not applicable to this port. It is recommended to use COM2.
LED INDICATORS
On bottom rim center of HT system cashier LCD panel, there are 2 LED indicators. The LED at right indicates the LAN status. When it lights up in green, the onboard LAN chip is linked. When it flashes in yellow with steady green light, data transmission in LAN is in process. The LED at left indicates Power/StandBy status. When it lights up in orange, it means that the external AC power is standing by with the system powered off. It turns into blue when the system is powered up. When the UPS battery is installed, this LED further indicates the status of system working on battery power by flashing in blue. The blue light will flash rather fast when the UPS battery approaches a fully discharged condition to remind the operator that power will soon finish. In few seconds, the whole system will soon be automatically turned off and the LED will be OFF. In case the AC power resumes during the
Part 13
usage of the battery power, the flashing LED will keep on flashing for few seconds before steady till the AC supply is stable.
POWER ON/OFF CONTROL
The HT terminal implements electronic power control, such that the main power to the system may be controlled by many methods as below:
1. Hardware power switch
2. Software OFF command
3. Automatic power ON control
4. Emergency power OFF
Switching from OFF to ON requires a normal supply of the AC power.
Hardware Power Switch
This button is located at bottom front corner of right side as in right picture and can be used to turn the system on and off alternatively. This hardware switch can also be programmed to be an ON only switch through software command so that when this switch is accidentally pressed during system turned on, the system just remains on and unaffected.
Software Off Command
The system may also be shut down under software control. Please just follow the arrangement by your system integrator for this capability.
Automatic Power On Control
The system may also turn on according to some preset conditions such as Modem Ring Up and Alarm Clock Wake Up or LAN Wake Up.
To utilize Modem Ring Up or Alarm Clock Wake Up function, the user should enter the CMOS setup by pressing “Del” key at system boot up, choose for “PM Wake Up Events” in “Power Management Setup” and make the “Ring Power Up Control” enabled for Modem Ring Up or select the “Power Up by Alarm” for Alarm Clock Wake Up. Save the configuration and exit the CMOS setup program. The Preset Power On Control will then be ready after a normal power off. For LAN wakeup, an operating caller system connected through LAN to the system is required. It also requires a qualified networking technician to check the LAN chip ID of the HT system for the caller system to wake it up.
When the HT system is turned off after a successful boot up, the preset automatic power on functions will keep monitoring for the preset conditions and turn on the system when the preset conditions are met.
Please note that if the HT system is improperly turned off before a complete boot up procedure, the above preset power on control functions will be disabled until next turning off after a complete boot up.
Part 14
Emergency Power Off
In case of serious system halt due to any reason, the system could fail to be powered off through normal means. Press and hold the Power ON/OFF Switch for Emergency Power Off. Release the switch after the system powered off. It will take about 10 seconds. If there appears to give a special coded beep tone in the pattern “short, long, short, long, short” prior to the system power off in this process, please remove the AC power and wait for few minutes to allow the hardware registers to reset (If there is no such beep, AC removal is not required). Then you may restart the system and take remedial action against the precious failure.
MAIN LCD TOUCH MONITOR
Mechanical Adjustments
The 12.1” LCD color display is integrated on display platform to give the operator the clearest view. The display may be adjusted to have the inclined angle from 42.5° to 77.5° and rotated from straight forward to 16° to the left.
Display Controls
On lower left edge of back of the LCD panel there is a plastic wheel knob as circled in the picture at right. Turning this knob up or down changes the brightness of screen display accordingly.
Display Utility Driver
The end user of the HT terminals is not supposed to install the utility drivers personally. If an optional preloaded OS is ordered, the required driver will be already installed in the preloaded OS. However, the driver will always be available over our web site: http://www.posiflex.com
Touch Function
Mouse emulation
The touch panel in HT system works exactly like a standard PS/2 mouse within the (primary) screen display area when its driver is properly installed. However, if the system is running under safe mode due to a previous improper shutdown or for any other reason, most drivers are disabled in this mode and the touch panel calibration may not coincide with the mouse pointer or even completely out of work. It is recommended to use an USB mouse or USB keyboard in safe mode.
All the below mentioned mouse emulation functions in the primary display area can be manipulated through relevant software. The system can give a beep when the touch panel is touched and can respond as if the left button of a mouse is clicked at the point touched. If the point touched is dragged across the screen surface, it can respond as if it is using the mouse
Part 15
drag and drop feature. If the point is touched, released and touched within a short time interval, it will simulate double-clicking left button of the mouse. Emulating the click on right button of a real mouse is further illustrated in paragraph below.
Touch terminal manager
Before using the PS/2 interface resistive type touch control panel, one must be aware that if you connect any monitor to the VGA port of HT system for extended secondary display application, you can not apply any touch control function for this secondary display due to driver conflict concerns! The operation range of a PS/2 mouse is also limited within the primary display area.
A program named “Posiflex Touch Terminal Manager” is installed in the preloaded Windows system for the user to maneuver versatile features of the touch terminal with a PS/2 interface touch panel controller. This program can also be obtained by download from the POSIFLEX web site. However, the installation process of this driver for Win XP and Win 2003 Server requires some careful attention to the notice messages.
With proper setup and selection on control items in “Posiflex Touch Terminal Manager”, a drawing representing a 2-button mouse will appear on the desktop. Touch the right button in this drawing. Any touch on the screen after this action will result in a right button mouse click at the point touched. After touching the left button in this drawing the screen touch will resume the left button function. This program also controls the beep generated when the touch panel is touched, the detail in right button click emulation, and also provides touch panel re-calibration. In principal, the touch panel requires no further calibration once properly set.
CUSTOMER DISPLAY / 2ND LCD
The optional customer display PD-2601 or PD-7321 mounted on a pole at rear corner of HT system can be turned horizontally for best viewing effect in application. or the optional 2nd LCD display screen
SIDE MOUNT UPGRADE KIT SD-300
In SD-300 mounted at right side of the touch monitor of HT system, there may be the MSR for reading a magnetic stripe card and/or the optical type finger print sensor. For magnetic stripe card reading, be sure to insert the card to the bottom with magnetic stripe facing the mark aside the slot. The movement of the card can be either inserting the card from the top surface then sliding the card down out of the slot, or sliding the card upward from the lower side of the slot till it reaches the top end as long as the card is a standard one. A non-standard card recorded without complete degaussing prior to recovery may accept only one direction in card reading.
Part 16
FAN CONTROL
In the preloaded OS for this HT system, there is an embedded function that can keep on monitoring the interior temperature and the fan revolution rate and regulating each required fan power to gain maximum ventilation effect with lowest possible noise. This function is disabled by default at delivery. The user can decide to engage this function by clicking “Start” --> “Programs” --> “Posiflex Tools” --> “Posiflex Fan Control” to pop up a window like the right picture. Click “Enable” then “Apply” to engage this function in background. This function will remain operating even after system restart. To disable this function, you have to pop up this window again and click “Disable” then “Apply” and restart the system. If system hang due to CPU overheat occurs, please review the ventilation condition and environment temperature, check if the fan is stuck by contaminants such as dry grease or threads and try to correct the situation when the system is off and cooled down. You may power up the system again after the system cooled down and trouble cause removed. However, if the trouble remains, please consult your dealer for possibly fan replacement on worn out.
USB
There are in total six standard USB female connectors in the rear room. All support the Universal Serial Bus Specification standard 2.0 and also
1.1. If for any reason (though very unlikely in ordinary practice) these ports has to be limited as USB 1.1 only, please enter BIOS setup and go to “Integrated Peripherals” then “SiS OnChip PCI Device” and disable the item “USB 2.0 Supports”.
One among the six USB ports can be extended to top edge of system unit for the side-mount upgrade kit by a cable.
