This section provides tips on using and protecting your Omni 3600 terminal, and
location recommendations for the Omni 3600 base.
Omni 3600
Terminal
The Omni 3600 is a portable terminal for performing transactions remotely. Since
it is a portable unit, location is not a factor however, follow the rules established in
the Environment and Convenience sections.
Omni 3600 Base
A prime location for the Omni 3600 base is a counter or other flat surface that
provides easy access to a power outlet and phone jack. Also, follow the rules
established in the Environment and Convenience sections.
Environment
• Do not use the Omni 3600 terminal or Omni 3600 base where there is
moisture or high humidity, chemicals or oils, or excessive heat or dust.
• Avoid locations near electrical appliances or other devices that emit excessive
voltage fluctuations or electrical noise (for example, air conditioners, electric
motors, neon signs, high-frequency or magnetic security devices, or computer
equipment).
• Never place the terminal in direct sunlight.
WARNING
Do not leave this terminal in an non-climate-controlled
vehicle. The Omni 3600 terminal is highly sensitive to
temperature extremes. Subjecting the terminal to temperatures
outside the stated operating range can void your warranty.
