peripherals through the use of USB dongles. Only one Modem Dongle and one
Serial Dongle can be connected to the Base Station. A second Modem Dongle or
a second Serial Dongle will be ignored by the terminal.
NOTE
The full-feature Base Station can also charge a spare battery while it charges the
battery attached to the terminal (see Charging the Spare Battery on the Base
Station).
To protect against possible damage caused by lightning strikes and electrical
surges, consider installing a power surge protector.
WARNING
Do not plug the power pack into an outdoor outlet or operate the terminal
outdoors.
Disconnecting the power during a transaction may cause transaction data files
not yet stored in terminal memory to be lost.
NOTE
The full-feature Base Station has USB ports for two external dongles. The
standard Base Station does not have USB ports.
