Connector Panel Power Supply The power supply can be connected to all conventional power supply networks. It automatically adjusts itself to the particular voltage and is fan-cooled. The Power Supply Unit (PSU) carries the 80plus or 80plus Bronze certificate. So, less energy is needed and less noise is generated as the fan is much lesser activated with a low revolution speed.
Power output (not in option 2) Power switch (not in option 2) Power connector DC24V (Printer) RJ12 (Cashdrawer) At the front side of the system find the ON/OFF button which will turn on and off the system (Option 1: Power Switch at the rear side in position 1). Switching off during operation is possible (press button again for approx. 5 sec.). The exact function of this button is controlled by the settings in your operating system and the BIOS.
DC24V (Modular Printer) Appropriate POS printers can be connected via the low-voltage jack 24V, max. 3A via non-UPS. A connecting cable with a HOSIDEN plug is required for this. Connect only cables to the 24V connector which are marked with DP-1 or DP-2. Do not connect the HOSIDEN plug when the system is turned on, this can lead to an automatical reboot of the system. RJ12 (CASHDR, Geldlade) The power supply unit has one RJ12 socket for connecting a cash drawer.
System Unit Always make sure that the system is switched off when you do cabling works. Connecting peripherals with the system switched on is not allowed (exception: USB devices; cf. page 3). Example for a connector panel of the BEETLE /M-II plus with a G41motherboard: PLINK / DVI-D MIC KYBD COM1 RMT SPK 12V (*) 12V LAN COM4* COM3* 24V COM2* DVI-I USB Jack plug, 3.5 mm, MIC Mini DIN (KYBD) D- sub (COM1) RJ10 / RMT Jack plug, 3.
Jack Plug 3.5 mm (MIC, SPK) Physically the microphone (MIC) and the head phone (SPK) jacks are identical as both require 3.5 mm phone jack for data transfer. However, both differ concerning the assignment so that a faultless transmission is only ensured with the designated connection. Besides a microphone a headset can be used alternatively via this interface. Mini-DIN (KYBD) The BEETLE /M-II plus has a 6-pin mini-DIN jack for connecting a keyboard.
With an installed TFT adapter and activated Touchscreen function the COM4* is no longer available. Settings for (de-) activating this function are made in the BIOS setup. RJ10/RMT You connect the Power Save Interface (also remote (RMT) interface) of your POS system via a cable to the acc. interface of the display (BA82/83). Use the Power Save function by pushing the ON/OFF button of the display. This function enables you to wake up a BEETLE system out of either standby/ hibernation or soft-off mode.
