NETWORK TERMINATION

Cash Register

The device at end of the network must be “TERMINATED”. For the Hydra an 8 DIP Switch on the rear of the unit is used to set the termination. When the switch is set to “ON”, the device is terminated. When the switch is set to “OFF”, it will be un-terminated. For the VSI-Pro Max an internal jumper JP15 must be set to terminate.
