Communications
Ports
The communications ports are located on the back of the Omni 3600 base (see
Figure 25). When the Omni 3600 terminal is docked in the Omni 3600 base, a
communication port in the terminal is opened, and data can transfer from the
Omni 3600 terminal back and forth through the Omni 3600 base over the modem
connection to and from your service provider or merchant contact.
Figure 25 Omni 3600 Base Connection Ports
Telephone Line Ports
There are two RJ11-type modular phone jacks (Figure 25) to connect the
Omni 3600 base to a telephone line:
• The first port is identified by a telephone-shaped Telset icon shown at left. Use
this port to connect a telephone to the terminal (pass-through connection)
• The second port is identified by the Telco icon shown at left. Use this port to
directly connect the Omni 3600 series terminal to a telephone wall jack
Telephone Line Connections
To make a direct connection, connect a telephone cord from the Telco port on the
Omni 3600 base directly to a telephone wall jack (Figure 26). Do not string the
telephone cord across a walkway or place it so as to interfere in high-traffic areas.
With a direct connection, the phone line is dedicated to the terminal.
WARNING
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. Li-ion batteries must be recycled
or disposed of properly. Do not dispose of Li-ion batteries in municipal
waste sites.
NOTE
The Omni 3600 base must be plugged into power to establish communications
connections.
