Charging the Smart Battery

If an application is loaded in the terminal, it starts after the initial VeriFone copyright screen and usually displays a unique copyright screen. If no application is loaded in the terminal, DOWNLOAD NEEDED appears on screen after the initial VeriFone copyright screen.

After unpacking your Vx670 terminal, install the battery and connect the power pack to the unit for 6 hours or until fully charged.

NOTE The Vx670 terminal’s smart battery is also charged when the terminal is in the Base Station. For more information, see Placing the Terminal Onto the Base Station.

The smart battery has a safety circuit to protect the Li-ion cells from overcharging and over-discharging. If the battery is over-discharged, the safety circuit shuts down the battery. The battery must then be recharged to restore operation.

NOTE The Vx670 terminal automatically shuts off when the smart battery reaches the critically low charge state. If this occurs, the smart battery must be recharged for a minimum of 1/2 hour before it can power the terminal. It may take several recharge attempts to reset the safety circuit when charging a smart battery that has been discharged below this critical state.

Battery Life The Vx670 smart battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but will eventually wear out. When operating times are noticeably shorter than usual, it is time to buy a new battery (see Accessories and Documentation for ordering information).

WARNING Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. Li-ion batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Do not dispose of Li-ion batteries in municipal waste sites.
