Mounting the Terminal

You can mount the terminal on any horizontal or vertical surface. The
sloping front panel of the 246X terminal makes reading the status lights
easy at any angle. You can rotate the screen to accommodate any viewing
angle. The terminal is designed to be used in an indoor environment. Make
sure that the location you select is relatively dust-free, stable, and dry.
Note: Make sure that you mount the terminal so that you can easily
connect the power supply to the back of the terminal.
