2.1 Intended Use
The POS system is a data collection tool that was developed for the sale of goods and/or services.
The POS system is used for the settlement of payment transactions. These can be executed with
cash or cashless. The executed transactions are recorded by the POS system and visualized by
means of reports and receipts.
The interfaces of the POS systems allow the connection of various peripherals (receipt printer,
scales, scanners, etc.).
The POS system is designed for indoor use only.
The POS system must only be operated at ambient temperatures from 0 °C to +45 °C.
The POS system must not be exposed to extreme temperatures, temperature fluctuations,
heating and cooling systems, direct solar irradiation, high levels of dust, vibrations and impacts,
extreme humidity or moisture.
Do not connect the POS system to electrical outlets close to devices that generate voltage
fluctuations or voltage peaks. In particular, stay clear of devices that use large electric motors.
Any use of the product other than described in the intended use section does not qualify as
intended use.
The POS system has been manufactured according to the current state of the art standards and
recognized safety regulations. However, improper use may cause lethal hazards for the operator
or third parties or may damage the POS system and other property.
The POS system may only be used in technically perfect condition, as intended, in a safety-
conscious and hazard-conscious manner as well as in compliance with the operating manuals.
Any cause of disorder, especially when affecting the safety, must be eliminated immediately!
The enclosed documentation is an integral part of this product. The operating manual must be
read and observed. Keep this manual and distribute the product only with the manual and the
accessories supplied to third parties.
