Operator Controls

Power Switch

The Power Switch is located on the bottom of the display. This switch is a momentary contact, push-on-push-off switch.

The behavior of the Power Switch is controlled by an Operating System setting. Options typically include:

  • Do nothing
  • Sleep
  • Hibernate
  • Shut down
  • Turn off the Display

Do nothing is the recommended setting to avoid accidental power cycles. To ensure a stable system, power cycles should only be controlled through the customer POS application.

Warning

If the Power Switch is pressed for four seconds when powering down, the hardware level override of the processor forces an uncontrolled shutdown. This can corrupt the Operating System. The ONESHOT feature disables this hardware override. To turn on the ONESHOT feature, refer to the following procedures: Enabling ONESHOT.
