Terminal Power
Source
The terminal is either powered by an external power pack or the single cell Li-ion
rechargeable battery, which can be charged in the terminal by the AC/DC power
pack through the micro-USB connector for VX 690 and pin connector for VX 685.
When you have finished installing the necessary cards and/or optional devices,
you are ready to connect the terminal to the power source.
NOTE
When the terminal has power and an application is loaded, the application starts
after the initial Verifone copyright screen. If no application is loaded,
DOWNLOAD NEEDED appears on the display after the initial Verifone copyright
screen.
WARNING
Do not connect the terminal to the power supply until all peripherals are attached.
Using an incorrectly rated power supply can damage the unit or cause it not to
work properly. Use only a power pack with P/N PWR260-001-XX-A for VX 690
and P/N PWR262-001-XX-A for VX 685. See Specifications for detailed power
supply specifications.
Do not plug the power pack into an outdoor outlet or operate the terminal
outdoors. Disconnecting power during a transaction can also cause unstored
data files to be lost.
NOTE
Verifone recommends installing a power surge protector to protect against
possible damage caused by lightning strikes and electrical surges.
