About the GT10L Terminal
The GT series of data collection terminals has
been designed for various applications including
Time and Attendance in both the commercial and
retail sectors, where low cost, exibility and ease of
installation are essential factors.
The terminal incorporates a exible, modular
hardware design which supports di󰀨erent reader
technologies such as biometric, proximity, barcode
and magnetic as well as enabling power supplies
and ancillary input/output modules to be easily
added.
The GT series of terminals run an advanced Linux
operating system o󰀨ering unsurpassed functionality
with exibility giving a rich user experience for data
collection solutions.
The ability to manage the software after deployment
is incorporated as a fundamental function of the
system. Everything from a complete operating
system ash image update to a change in application
program parameters can be downloaded over the
Internet or uploaded via USB memory stick.
About this Guide
This GT10L user guide is intended for users who will be responsible for installing and conguring the GT10L
terminal. It is aimed at users who need to understand how to congure the terminal, remotely connect to the
terminal and how to install applications onto the terminal.

Installation
Before starting the installation consider
Which power option is to be used - as this may inuence cabling requirements, vicinity to power outlets
and accessory modules required (refer to “Power Options” on page 14)
The environment the GT10L will be installed into – if the GT10L is to be installed into outdoor, wet, harsh
or extreme environment then the AE-ENC-EP-GT10 environmental protection enclosure should be used
to protect the GT10L.
Fitting the Terminal
Location:
The Terminal should be xed to a at surface at a height that is comfortable for users to view and interact
with the screen without glare from reections and in a suitable level of ambient light. Take care to adhere to
any local regulations such as disabled access when determining the height of the unit.
Secure to a Vertical Surface:
Before mounting the back panel rst t any Biometric Reader options as these need access from the rear
of the unit.
Bring in any cables through snip-out apertures (A or B). Cables may be routed within the cabling cavity
between the back panel and mounting surface (C).
For installations in the USA the unit may be mounted over a power outlet with PSU (wall wart) inside the
case. For this type of installation snip-out the large aperture (B)
Fix the back panel to a at vertical surface at a height that will be comfortable for users to see and touch
the screen observing any national regulations. Use suitable screws through any of the xing points (D)
circled to rmly secure the device taking care to not over-tighten the screws or distort the case.
Expansion Modules e.g. EM-IO-USB-IT may be tted in the area (E)

Power Options
AC 110-240V via Adapter
The Terminal can be powered from an AC power outlet using an optional plug-top or wall wart power supply.
Adapters include
AE-PSU-PT-12VDC universal adapter with UK, Europe, Australia and US interchangeable AC plugs
AE-PSU-NA-12VDC adapter with US AC plug
Where national codes of practice permit the PSU may be tted inside the housing.
DC 12V
The Terminal can be powered from a suitable 12Vdc
power supply with 2.1mm DC plug centre positive
connected to the ‘+12V DC’ power in jack.
The supply should have a stabilised voltage output
of 12VDC ±5% with minimum 2A capacity. The
power supply should incorporate suitable overload
protection.
The GT10L power indicator will show blue when
power is supplied via the 12V power jack either with
direct DC connection or with ac power adapter.
Power over Ethernet PoE
By tting optional module CM-POE-HC-IT the
GT10L may be powered via the Ethernet cable with
suitable upstream PoE switch or injector. Supported
standards
IEEE 802.3af (PoE) injector provides Terminal
with 1000mA @12V
IE EE 802.3at (PoE+) injector provides Terminal
with 2000mA @12V
When the GT10L is running from PoE the power
indicator on the front of the Terminal will show green.
Note: It is strongly recommended that POE+
(IEEE802.3at) is used to ensure that there is
su󰀩cient power available for the device.

Page 15
Power Options
Battery Backup
The GT10L includes a backup battery to power
the terminal should the normal power supply fail.
The standard battery pack is EM-BB-2HR-A which
provides up to 2-hours runtime.
The Terminal will continue to run when power is
removed until the battery charge level reaches its
lower threshold. The terminal may be shut down prior
to battery exhaustion by using the ‘Shutdown’ option
accessible through the launcher.
Once shutdown the Terminal will remain o󰀨 until power
is restored. When in the shutdown state there is very
little draw on the battery and it can remain in this state
for extended periods.
For optimum battery life it is recommended that the
battery is charged a minimum of every six months
if the unit is in shutdown for prolonged periods by
applying power to the Terminal.
Charging of the EM-BB-2HR-A battery pack is
managed by the GT10L and depending on power
source typical recharge time from 0% to 100% will
range from 3 hours to 12 hours. Charging times will be
extended in elevated ambient temperatures to protect
the battery.
When the GT10L is running from battery the power
indicator on the front of the Terminal will show red.
The EM-BB-2HR-A battery pack comprises a
rechargeable li-Ion battery along with protection
circuitry to prevent safety hazards caused by
overload, over-charging or over-discharge.
WARNING - ONLY FIT BATTERY PACK
SPECIFIED, FAILURE TO OBSERVE MAY
RESULT IN FIRE HAZARD
Service life of the EM-BB-2HR-A battery pack is
typically 3 to 5 years depending on conditions
and regular replacement is recommended. The
battery may become swollen towards the end of
its service life, if swelling is observed the battery
should be replaced.

Front Panel Fitted Options:
When tting any option modules prepare the Terminal by removing the front panel and placing it face down
on a clean at surface that will not scratch the glass front.

Replacing the Battery Pack
Part no: EM-BB-2HR-A
The battery pack ts into the compartment
outlined below and connects to the BATTERY
connector arrowed.
1. To remove the old battery, disconnect the cable
by squeezing the tab on the connector before
pulling.
2. Release the hook and loop strap then withdraw
the battery.
3. Fit the battery pack into the compartment
4. Loop the strap through the eye and pull the strap
then secure the hook and loop. The strap should
be a loose t around the battery to allow for some
expansion.
5. With the battery secured the battery cable can
be connected observing polarisation on the
connector
Note: Connecting the battery pack will not power-up the
unit immediately even if it is fully charged. Battery backup
will be enabled when power has been applied to the unit.
