INSTALLATION   It is important that before installation the iSPOS terminal's position and environment be considered.   3.1 Pre-installation     Location Ensure that as with any computer equipment, the iSPOS terminal is positioned in a clean and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight   Operator’s Comfort and Safety Operator comfort and safety should always be of the highest priority when deciding on the location and layout of the iSPOS system. Please note the comfortable distance between the operator and the touch screen; the operator should not have to stretch to reach the screen but also should not be in a cramped position. The height of the terminal should be such that the operator can view the screen at right angles.
SENOR TECH CO., LTD.   iSPOS User’s manual  21Clearances The iSPOS terminal should be located where there is adequate clearance for ventilation around the terminal. Similarly, clearance around the power supply for ventilation, as well as access to the power switch, indicators and connectors should be allowed for. Additional consideration should be given to ensuring nothing can be placed over the fan or vent holes, e.g. paper, rags etc.   Cable Routing In most cases the position of printers, scanners etc. will make it necessary that the cabling will have to be run through counter dividing panels and shelves. Try to keep these runs as short as possible, while avoiding stretching or crimping the cable. Keep the iSPOS data cables separated from those for other equipment, in particular motors, lighting, refrigeration etc.   Mains AC Power Supply AC supply to the iSPOS system should be a dedicated feed from the main switchboard. Do not connect any other equipment to this feed or damage to the iSPOS terminal or its peripherals may result. A hint is to clearly identify each iSPOS terminal power outlet as a dedicated point. The supply should have a reliable ground at the switchboard.  Configuration Any number of methods can be used to install the iSPOS, dependant on countertop configuration, user preference and peripherals connected. It can simply sit on the countertop, in which case care must be taken to ensure it cannot be knocked off the countertop when bumped. It can also be fixed to the countertop using the provided base unit or mounted on vesa bracket or arm. It would be impossible to cover every installation situation in this manual so each should be considered individually.  3.2 Mounting   The iSPOS is designed to be fitted with a base unit or with a VESA standard mounting bracket or arm (75 mm X 75 mm; 100 mm X 100 mm) if required. Unscrew the two screws securing the base unit to the LCD panel. Separate the LCD Panel from the base unit by lifting the LCD panel.

SENOR TECH CO., LTD.   iSPOS User’s manual  247575100100 Note: the length of screws must not exceed 6mm.  The location of peripherals should be decided upon, consideration for operator safety and comfort should be observed and the length and location of data cables to each peripheral device should be considered.   Once the installation method and configuration has been chosen, modifications to the counter can be made using each peripheral manufacturer's installation instructions. Remember to allow for cable runs through the countertop and any shelving. Usually there will be two cables per device, one for power and one for data.
SENOR TECH CO., LTD.   iSPOS User’s manual  254. REGULAR MAINTENANCE   To ensure reliable operation, the iSPOS should be regularly maintained, cleaning both internally and external and checking that all connections are secure and no cables are damaged   4.1 Cleaning   The iSPOS should be cleaned with a soft and slightly damp cloth. DO NOT use solvents or abrasives and DO NOT spray any substance directly onto the iSPOS terminal.   The touch screen should be cleaned with a soft, slightly damp cloth in a circular motion, from its center to outer edges.   4.2 Touch Screen   Caring For The Touch Screen To keep the touch screen in good working order, use only the ball of the finger to activate onscreen buttons, never use pins, pens, pencils or the like on the touch screen and regularly clean with a soft slightly damp cloth. The activation pressure for the touch screen is 5.5 grams therefore only a light touch is required, never hit the screen or apply excessive pressure or permanent damage will occur. If there is difficulty activating the on screen buttons, the touch screen may need calibrating.  Cleaning Clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth, wipe gently in a circular motion from the center of the screen to the outside edges. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
