The pedestal base ensures that the remote terminal receives
proper ventilation. Use it to mount the remote terminal in a
vertical position.
The HN7000S consumer terminal is designed only for vertical
positioning and must be mounted on the pedestal base as shown
in Figure 7. Removing the pedestal base and placing this unit in a
horizontal orientation will cause the unit to overheat.
The HN7700S enterprise terminal can be oriented in two ways:
in a vertical position with the pedestal base; or in a horizontal
position without the pedestal base when mounted in a ventilated
rack.
During troubleshooting procedures, you may be asked by your
service provider to remove the pedestal base. After
troubleshooting, you must reattach the pedestal base. To attach
the pedestal base to the terminal:
1. Position the terminal and base as shown in Figure 7.

2. Starting with the terminal bottom about ½ inch from the
bottom of the pedestal base, slide the terminal into the base
until the terminal locks into position.
You must observe the warnings and cautions below to prevent
personal injury or damage to the terminal.
