Care & Maintenance
This section is specifically prepared for those who are in charge of taking care of the terminal, such as a
terminal operator or maintenance engineer.
Here are some tips on how to take care and maintain the terminal.
Taking care of the terminal
Always keep electric equipments, such as the terminal, away from any flammable sources.
Always make sure there is stable power supply for the terminal or its peripherals to operate properly.
This terminal is intended for industrial use. Although the terminal is rated IP 64, it may do damage to the
terminal when being exposed to extreme temperatures or soaked wet.
When the body of the terminal gets dirty, use a clean and wet cloth to wipe off the dust. DO NOT use/mix
any bleach or cleaner. Always keep the LCD dry.
For a liquid crystal display (LCD) or touch screen, DO NOT use any pointed or sharp object to move
against the surface. Use a clean, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth to wipe dust off the screen.
Maintaining the terminal
If you want to put away the terminal for a period of time, download the collected data to a host first, and
then take out the battery pack. Store the terminal and battery pack separately.
When the terminal resumes its work, the main and backup batteries will take a certain time to become
fully charged.
If you shall find the terminal malfunctioning, refer to the Troubleshooting section for self help first.
If the problem persists, write down the specific scenario and consult your local sales representative.
Under no circumstances, internal components are self-serviceable.
