3.5. Connections: 
Turn the i7780 base off when connecting peripherals. 
The power supply must be connected last, only after all 
the other connections are made. 
 VERSATILE BASE 
RADIO BASE 
Maximum cable length is 2.5m. 
•  ETHERNET CONNECTION (versatile base only) 
Turn off the versatile base and connect the Ethernet 
cable (supplied with the terminal) to the port on the 
Ethernet Plug-It module. Plug the other end of the cable 
into the hub or router. 
•  DIAL LINE CONNECTION 
Plug the one end of a telephone cable (supplied with the 
terminal) into the port, and connect the other end of the 
cable to a wall telephone jack. 
•  PHONE CONNECTION (radio base only) 
Plug one end of a telephone cable into the radio base port 
, and plug the other end of the cable in the phone. 
•  PERIPHERAL/HOST CONNECTION 
Unplug the i7780 base. Connect the serial cable to the 
base port marked COM2 or COM1/3. Plug the other end 
of the serial cable to the device (PC, check reader etc.). 
For detailed instructions, ask the equipment supplier. 
•  POWER CONNECTION 
Plug the power adapter radial jack into the i7780 base 
port marked  . The green light on the front right 
hand side of the base indicates the power is on. 
Attach the cable securing plate and fix it with a screw. 
3.6. Changing the printer paper: 
When the coloured stripe on the paper appears, replace 
the paper: 
1.  Remove the i7780 from the base and wait till it turns

Installation Guide 
 DIV750026A 

1. Ingenico 7780 description: 
The i7780 is a portable (Bluetooth technology) point of 
sale electronic payment terminal designed to process 
debit, credit and smart card purchases. It is highly 
secured, EMV level 1and 2 certified. 
The i7780 communicates with the acquirer through its 
base via the telephone and/or Ethernet network. The 
hand-held terminal and the base communicate through 
the Bluetooth link, or via direct contact. A network can 
be set up, with one base managing up to 7 terminals at the 
same time. Various peripherals can be connected to the 
base through its RS-232 ports. 
1.1. Display: 
A 4 line x 16 character LCD graphic display, with a 
back light. 
1.2. Keypad: 
18 keys, with a back light. The special function keys are: 
•  Programmable function keys <F1>, <F2> and <F3> 
for navigation and access to various i7780 functions 
and the system and application menus. 
•  Paper Feed key is used for a printer paper feed (20mm) 
The green <ENTER> key confirms the data entered or 
displayed. It also powers on the i7780. 
•  The red <CAN> key cancels the current function and 
returns the terminal to the idle state. It also powers off 
the i7780 if it is not docked on the base. 
•  The yellow <CORR> key corrects invalid data entry. 
•  The blue <ADMIN> key is used to access the terminal 
administration function menu. 
1.3. Magnetic Stripe Card Reader: 
i7780 features a bi-directional reader capable of reading 
tracks 1 and 2 simultaneously. The reader is located on 
the right-hand side. The card can be swiped from the 
bottom to the top, or from the top to the bottom. The 
magnetic stripe on the card has to face down and point 
toward the keypad. 
The card has to be swiped at uniform speed and pressure, 
ensuring that the card remains in contact with the bottom of 
the track throughout the entire swipe action. 
1.4. Smart Card Reader: 
Insert the smart card horizontally into the slot on the front of 
the i7780, the microchip facing up, and leave it in the reader 
throughout the transaction. 
The i7780 has EMV level 1&2 approvals and complies 
with the ISO 7816, Sync and Async T=1 & T=0. 
1.5. Printer: 
The i7780 integrates a quiet, high speed, “easy-load” style 
thermal printer with graphics capability. 
1.6. Battery: 
Rechargeable and easily replaceable Ni-MH or Li-Ion battery 
pack. 
1.7. SAM Connectors: 
Three SAM card connectors are located on the bottom of the 
i7780. The SAM (Secure Access Module) supports 
smart card chips necessary for applications such as 
loyalty. 
1.8. The Base 
The i7780 communicates with its base via Bluetooth radio 
link, or through the contacts (connect mode) which is useful 
when loading large amounts of data, or when a Bluetooth 
link is unavailable. 
The i7780 works with either radio base or versatile base. The 
versatile base has a Plug-It slot to add a Plug-It module with 
additional communication port. 
The base station recharges the battery pack and includes the 
following communication ports: 
- COM2 and COM1/3: 
Two RS-232 serial communication links for customer 
applications download and for the communication with 
external peripherals (speed 300 to 115200 bps). The 
COM1/3 provides power for external devices. 
- DIAL LINE port: 
A V34 / 33600 bps (asynch. and synchr.) modem that 
supports fast connect and busy line detection. 
- TELEPHONE port (on radio base only): 
The telephone port allows sharing of the telephone line with 
other devices such as a fax machine or telephone. 
- ETHERNET port (on versatile base only): 
The Ethernet port allows the i7780 to connect to a local 
network.

11. This installation guide. 
3. Installation procedure: 
Place the i7780 base on a clear, flat surface near an electrical 
and telephone sockets. The ideal location is in the center of 
the zone to be covered with a large open area around. The 
antenna is inside, on the left side of the base. 
The i7780 hand held and the base must be protected from 
high temperature, vibrations, dust, dampness and 
electromagnetic radiation (computer screen, microwave 
oven, anti-theft barrier etc.). Equipment such as cordless and 
cellular phones can emit harmonics that could disturb the 
terminal at 2.45 GHz. 
Do not place the base near a great vertical metal plane (doors 
of refrigerator, large home appliances, vending machines). 
Ensure the base or the terminal is more than 3 m (around 10 
feet) from any microwave oven in use. 
Do not place the hand held terminal on a metal surface. 
Do not put your hand under the printer during 
communication, as the range is greatly reduced. 
If there are several radio bases installed, position them at 
least 2 meters (around 6.5 feet) from each other. 
Ensure that the terminal is seated securely on the base. 
Operating temperature ................................+5°C to +40°C 
Humidity ........................ 20% to 90% without condensation 
Storage temperature ....................................-10°C to +60°C 
3.1. Battery Set up and Charging: 
The i7780 is supplied with a removable rechargeable NiMH 
or Li-Ion battery. Only use the battery pack supplied with 
your terminal. 
i7780 battery is built with circuitry for intelligent battery 
management. To charge the battery, place the handheld on 
the base (the base must be powered up). 
Ensure that the terminal is seated securely on the base. 
Use the power adapter supplied with the i7780. Many 
adapters can appear similar and will plug into the i7780 base 
but will not work properly causing erratic behavior, poor 
charging or even damage to the unit. 
Note that the battery will recharge only if necessary. 
Furthermore, the battery has internal temperature control so 
it never exceeds 50°C. 
The i7780 with a fully charged battery can execute up to 200 
transactions (depending on the ticket size and transaction 
duration). 
The battery status is updated on the handheld display: 
  1 bar represents 25 % of full capacity,  
  2 bars represent 50 % of full capacity,  
  3 bars represent 75 % of full capacity,  
  4 bars represent 100 % of full capacity 
Always charge the battery at the room temperature. 
Charge the battery for 3 hours when it is used the first time. 
Full charging time after the first time is 2 hours. A new 
battery will benefit from an initial "conditioning". The first 3 
times the battery is used, allow the battery to fully discharge 
and then charge it to its full capacity. 
3.2. Installing the Battery: 
Leave the i7780 handheld terminal off its base and wait until 
it turns itself off before handling the battery pack. 
Hold the battery with the connectors facing downwards, do 
not touch the contacts on the battery or the i7780. 
Insert the two plastic teeth in the gaps on the i7780 case, 
place the battery in the cavity and press the handle until a 
click is heard. 
3.3. SAM Installation: 
Wait till the i7780 turns off and remove its battery (do not 
touch the contacts on the battery or the i7780). Unlock the 
SAM connector by sliding the metallic latch in the direction 
of the OPEN arrow. Lift the SAM cover upward and insert 
the chip as shown on the picture below. Swing the cover 
down and slide the latch into locked position (the LOCK 
arrow). Put the battery back in the i7780 handheld. 
3.4. Changing The Plug-It Module: 
1.  Turn off the versatile base 
2.  Remove the cable from Plug-It module. 
3.  Remove the screw using Philips screwdriver. 
4.  Take the Plug-It module out. 
5.  Put in the new Plug-It module and secure it with a screw.
