Not long ago we wrote an article on a topic of necessity of a VeriFone VX 670’ battery calibration. Today we are going to explain how to calibrate a battery of a VeriFone VX680. But first of all, let’s talk about the characteristics.
Intellectual battery has following characteristics:
- Li-ion battery, 2 sections.
- Level of charge indicator
- Controls battery condition (voltage and charge level in percent)
- Integrates with terminal (parameters and battery condition)
- Determines capacity of a fully-charged battery
- Automatically turns off if mains voltage is low.
Main security:
- Prevents a section from an excessive and insufficient charge and also overheat
- Turns on if battery is being inserted in a non-active terminal for a long time.
In order to safe terminal’s battery charge, simply turn off your VeriFone VX680 if not using. Periodically turn on you VeriFone VX680 to check battery’s level of charge. DO NOT leave you terminal with a less than 10 percent of a charge for a long time, it will lead to a battery capacity decreasing.
Every POS’ battery must be calibrated for a correct controller and battery cells charge indications.
