Touch-Screen Display The ICE 5700 terminal is built around a graphic touch-screen that provides a high degree of flexibility
and an intuitive user environment. Additionally, the graphics screen can deliver adver tising and other
promotional messages directly to the consumer.
The easy-to-operate nature of the touch-screen reduces the need for cashier training. It allows trouble-
free operation by consumers in the PIN pad and signature capture pad mode s. It also allows the support
of complex new applications such as loyalty, which on a traditional terminal requires many keystrokes
and long transaction entry times.
For operation in dimly lit environments such as restaurants, the screen is e quipped with a backlight.
The standard configuration for the ICE 5700 terminal includes a 1.7 inch by 2.7 i nch graphic dot matrix
touch screen that is capable of character, graphics, and signature display. While in character mode, the
display resolution is 160 pixels by 80 pixels. The character disp lay has 10 lines with 26 characters for
each line. Graphic keys displayed on the screen initiate most function s.
NOTE: This display is configurable.
