Recycling the BA66
Environmental protection does not begin when
the time has come to dispose of the BA66; it
begins with the manufacturer. This product was
designed according to our internal norm
“Environmental conscious product design and
development”.
The BA66 is manufactured without the use of CFCs and CCHS and is
produced mainly from reusable components and materials.
The processed plastics can, for the most part, be recycled. Even the
precious metals can be recovered, thus saving energy and costly raw
materials.
Please do not stick labels onto plastic case parts. This would help us to
re-use components and material.
You can protect our environment by only switching on your equipment when
it is actually needed. If possible, even avoid the stand-by-mode as this
wastes energy, too. Also switch your equipment off when you take a longer
break or finish your work.
At this time, there are still some parts that are not reusable. Wincor Nixdorf
International GmbH guarantees the environmentally safe disposal of these
parts in a Recycling Center, which is certified pursuant to ISO 9001 and ISO
14001.
So don’t discard your display on the garbage when it has served its time, but
take advantage of the environmentally smart, up-to-date recycling methods!
Please contact your competent branch or the Recycling Center Paderborn
(for European countries) for information on how to return and re-use devices
and disposable materials under the following mail address:
Email: [email protected]
or on the internet.
We look forward to your mail.

RECYCLING THE BA66

General Notes
The BA66 cashier display is mainly used in POS installations which are
designed in modular form. It is either securely screwed to the POS keyboard
or installed near it so that it is ideally positioned in the cashier’s field of
vision.
The display is a vacuum florescent display (VFD) with two lines, each with
20 alphanumeric characters. The standard character set and corresponding
country code are implemented. Implementation of VFD technology ensures
that the cashier display is ergonomically designed to achieve a high degree
of readability, irrespective of the cashier’s angle of vision.
The display is connection to the point of sale system via a RS232C
interface. The voltage (12 V DC) is also supplied via this interface.
The following two BA66 cashier displays are available to meet individual
installation requirements:
BA66 cashier display with base/ rotating plate
Connector cables are available in different lengths. The cables are ordered
and delivered separately.
