DEVICE SETUP
Battery Behavior (No Power Pack)
14 E285 INSTALLATION GUIDE
• Activates when the battery is left in an unused device for extended
periods.
Battery Behavior
(No Power Pack)
The device shifts to power pack mode and starts up automatically when the e285
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 device displays the startup
screen.
The device lights up once the power is on.
Manual Shutdown
Hold the red key down for about 4 seconds until the device displays the startup
screen.
NOTE
• The e285 battery pack is not customer changeable and therefore should not
be disconnected and removed.
• Li-ion batteries are not affected by shallow charging. Furthermore, when the
device has no external power source or battery, the coin cell battery provides
power to the security circuit.
• Disconnecting and removing the battery, as well as unplugging the device
power pack, reduce the life of the coin cell battery, which does not recharge
and must be replaced if drained.
• Conserve battery power by turning the e285 device off when not in use. Keep
the Li-ion battery inserted in the device and power up the device periodically
to check the battery charge. Do not let the battery charge fall below 10% for
extended periods of time as this may permanently diminish the battery
capacity. Recharge the battery by attaching the USB-C end of the power pack
to the device and plugging the other end of the power pack into a wall outlet.
NOTE
The 4-second power-up delay prevents device startup if the green key is
accidentally held down. The time required to hold the green key down to power
up the device is configurable.
NOTE
The Verifone copyright screen starts and displays a unique copyright screen
once the device loads an application. However, DOWNLOAD NEEDED appears
on screen after the initial Verifone copyright screen if there is no available
application in the device.
NOTE
The screen is blank when the device has no power.
