Introduction1
We very much appreciate your purchase of the Vectron POS Mobi-
lePro. You have decided in favor of a high quality product that will
support you in your daily work.
The Vectron POS MobilePro is a self-contained POS system which
uses the same software as the stationary Vectron POS systems.
In addition, the Vectron POS MobilePro is convincing by high-quality
features like wireless network communication (Wireless LAN), con-
nection of modern mobile printers through Bluetooth, a high-resoluti-
on colour display and simplified operating functions.
Since it is technically comparable to stationary Vectron POS 64-Bit
systems, you can easily integrate the Vectron POS MobilePro into an
existing ECR network or establish such a network.
The high-quality electronics of the Vectron POS MobilePro is protec-
ted by a very robust magnesium housing.
In chapter 5 you get an overview on the hardware features and their
handling.
This manual describes in chapter 7 how to start the Vectron POS
MobilePro.
Chapter 8 informs you on how to operate the Vectron POS Mobile-
Pro.
The following chapters contain additional information, e.g. on the
maintenance of the system and its components and on optional
accessories.
A glossary of terms completes the manual.

tron dealer who will be glad to assist you.
