TERMINAL SETUP
Using the Smart Battery
34 VX 680 INSTALLATION GUIDE
• monitors state of charge (voltage and percentage of capacity)
• communicates with the terminal (charge parameters and status),
• determines full charge capacity (on charge cycle and uninterrupted
discharge cycle)
• automatically shuts down when cell voltage is extremely low
• A safety circuit that:
• prevents cell damage from overcharge, over-discharge, or overheating
• activates when the battery is left in an unused terminal for extended
periods
NOTE
• Li-ion batteries are not affected by shallow charging. Furthermore, when the
terminal has no external power source or smart battery, the coin cell battery
provides power to the security circuit.
• Uninstalling the battery and unplugging the terminal 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 VX 680 terminal off when not in use.
Keep the Li-ion battery inserted in the terminal and power up the terminal
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 power cable to the
terminal and plugging the power pack into a wall outlet.
