Figure 3-8. TRANZ 460 Battery Switch
Note: Because the power on/off switch is the only way the terminal can be
completely powered down, set it to "off" and then "on" again any time you
wish to reset the terminal (for example, during the software development
stage).
Telephone Connection 1. Connect one end of the telephone line
cord to the modular jack on the rear of
the terminal (see Figure 3-9).
2. Connect the other end of the line cord to
a modular telephone wall jack. If you
do not have a modular wall jack, obtain
an adapter from your local telephone
company.
Multi-Lane
Configuration
In a multi-lane configuration, a Multi-lane Traffic Controller (MTC) device
supports up to five POS terminals and connects to an RJ11 dialup port.
Terminals that support printers use a smart "Y" cable to connect to the MTC.
The MTC device connects to the DVM (single entry multiplexer), which then
sends data to the host over a single telephone line via a PAD (packet
assembler-disassembler) at the telephone company using T3POS protocol
for rapid host response. Figure 3-10 is a block diagram showing a multi-lane
environment connection layout.
