guide remain the same, regardless of terminal configuration.
TERMINAL SETUP
Installing the Paper Roll
18 VX 675 INSTALLATION GUIDE
Installing the
Paper Roll
A fast, quiet thermal printer is built into the VX 675 terminal. Before you can
process transactions that require a receipt or record, you must install a roll of
thermal-sensitive paper in the printer.
The ITP uses a roll of single-ply, thermal-sensitive paper—25 mm (for GPRS
model only) and 40 mm. A pink out-of-paper indicator line appears on the edge of
the paper approximately 18 inches before the end of the roll. After this line
appears, there is enough paper remaining on the roll to conclude at least one
transaction.
To Install a Paper Roll 1Gently pull the latch located on the bottom of the terminal to unlock the paper
roll cover.
Figure 5 Unlocking the Printer Cover
2Lift the printer cover up and back.
3Remove any partial roll of paper in the printer tray.
4Loosen the glued leading edge of the new roll of paper or remove the
protective strip, if applicable. Unwind the paper roll past any glue residue.
5Hold the roll so the paper feeds from the bottom of the roll when the terminal is

Battery Behavior (No Power Pack)
22 VX 675 INSTALLATION GUIDE
Battery Features
The following are features of the battery:
•Single Li-ion cell.
•A safety circuit that:
•Prevents cell damage from overcharge, over-discharge, or overheating.
•Activates when the battery is left in an unused terminal for extended
periods.
Conserve battery power by turning the VX 675 terminal off when not in use. Keep
the Li-ion battery inserted in the terminal and power up the terminal periodically to
check the battery charge. Do not let the battery charge fall below 10% for
extended periods of time as this may permanently diminish the battery capacity.
Recharge the battery by attaching the micro-USB end of the power pack to the
terminal and plugging the other end of the power pack into a wall outlet.
Battery Behavior
(No Power Pack)
The terminal shifts to power pack mode and starts up automatically when the
VX 675 is connected to a non-battery power source, regardless of the battery
charge state.
Manual Startup
Hold the green key down for about 4 seconds until the terminal displays the
startup screen.
The terminal lights up once the power is on.
NOTE
VX 675 battery pack is not customer changeable and therefore should not be
disconnected and removed.
Li-ion batteries are not affected by shallow charging. When the terminal has no
external power source or battery, the coin cell battery provides power to the
security circuit.
Disconnecting and removing the battery, as well as unplugging the terminal
power pack, reduce the life of the coin cell battery, which does not recharge and
must be replaced if drained.
NOTE
The 4-second power-up delay prevents terminal startup if the green key is
accidentally held down. The time required to hold the green key down to power up
the terminal is configurable (for more information, see the VX 675 Reference
Guide – VPN DOC265-004-EN-A).
NOTE
The VeriFone copyright screen starts and displays a unique copyright screen
once the terminal loads an application. However, DOWNLOAD NEEDED appears on
screen after the initial VeriFone copyright screen if there is no available
application in the terminal.
TERMINAL SETUP
Connecting the Terminal Power Pack
VX 675 INSTALLATION GUIDE 23
Manual Shutdown

shutdown verification screen. Keep holding the red key until the VX 675 terminal
shuts down.
Connecting the
Terminal Power
Pack
After installing the battery, connect the VX 675 terminal to the provided power
source for initial charging.
Each VX 675 terminal comes with power supply (VPN PWR265-001-01-A) used
to connect the terminal directly to a power outlet and to charge the battery. The
VX 675 unit comes with a universal input power pack capable of operating from
voltages of 100 V to 240 V AC.
NOTE
•The 4-second shutdown delay that prevents terminal shutdown if the red key
is accidentally held down. The time required to hold the red key down to shut
down the terminal is configurable (for more information, see the VX 675
Reference Guide – VPN DOC265-004-EN-A).
•The screen is blank when the terminal has no power.
CAUTION
Using an incorrectly rated power supply may damage the terminal or cause it not
to work as specified. Before troubleshooting, ensure that the power supply being
used to power the terminal matches the requirements specified on the bottom of
the terminal. (See Specifications for detailed power supply specifications.) Obtain
the appropriately rated power supply before continuing with troubleshooting.
WARNING
Do not plug the power pack into an outdoor outlet or operate the terminal
outdoors.
During a transaction, disconnecting the power by removing the battery or
unplugging the terminal from a wall power while at very low battery charge may
cause transaction data files not yet stored in the terminal memory to be lost.

in the terminal, DOWNLOAD NEEDED appears on screen after the initial VeriFone
copyright screen.
Charging the
Battery
After unpacking your VX 675 terminal, connect the power pack to the unit for 6
hours or until fully charged.
The battery has a safety circuit to protect the Li-ion cells from overcharging and
over-discharging. If the battery is over-discharged, the safety circuit shuts down
the battery. The battery must then be recharged to restore operation.
NOTE
To protect against possible damage caused by lightning strikes and electrical
surges, consider installing a power surge protector.
NOTE
The terminal charges the VX 675 battery when the terminal is on the base. For
more information, see Docking the Terminal on the Base.
NOTE
The VX 675 terminal automatically shuts off when the battery reaches the
critically low charge state. If this occurs, the battery must be recharged for a
minimum of 1/2 hour before it can power the terminal. It may take several
recharge attempts to reset the safety circuit when charging a battery that has
been discharged below this critical state.

readable information:
•The battery pack may not be connected properly. Remove and reinstall the
battery pack.
•Check terminal power connection.
•Remove and reapply power to the terminal.
•If the problem persists, contact your local VeriFone service provider.
Printer Does Not
Print
If the printer does not work properly:
•Make sure the battery is properly installed in the terminal. The printer will not
print if there is no battery in the terminal.
•Check battery status or terminal power connection. The printer will not print if
there is an insufficient charge remaining in the battery to complete the print
operation.
•Check if the printer is out of paper (slow red blinking light) and that the roll is
properly installed. Open the paper roll cover and install a new roll of printer
paper or ensure that the roll is feeding correctly. A solid red indicator light
indicates a printer error.
NOTE
•Allow the VX 675 terminal to remain connected to the power pack for 6 hours
to ensure the battery receives a full charge.
•Li-ion batteries are not affected by shallow charging. Furthermore, when the
terminal has no external power source or battery the coin cell battery provides
power to the security circuit.
•Uninstalling the battery and unplugging the terminal power pack reduce the
life of the coin cell battery, which does not recharge and must be replaced if
drained.
•Conserve battery power by turning the VX 675 terminal off when not in use.
Keep the Li-ion battery inserted in the terminal and power up the terminal
periodically to check the battery charge. Do not let the battery charge fall
below 10% for extended periods of time as this may permanently diminish the
battery capacity. Recharge the battery by attaching USB end of the power
pack to the terminal and plugging the other end of the power pack into a wall
outlet.
•The VX 675 terminal automatically shuts off when the battery reaches the
critically low charge state. If this occurs, the battery must recharge a minimum
of 1/2 hour before it can power the terminal. It may take several recharge
attempts to reset the safety circuit when charging a battery that has been
discharged below this critical state.

•If pressing a function key does not perform the expected action, refer to the
user documentation for that application to ensure you are entering data
correctly.
•If the problem persists, contact your local VeriFone representative.
Transactions
Fail to Process
There are several reasons why the terminal may not be processing transactions.
Use the following steps to troubleshoot failures.
Check the Magnetic Card Reader
•Perform a test transaction using one or more different magnetic stripe cards to
ensure the problem is not a defective card.
•Ensure that you are swiping cards properly. With the VX 675 card reader, the
black magnetic stripe on the card should face down and inward, toward the
keypad and must be inserted from the top of the terminal (see Figure 22).
•Process a transaction manually, using the keypad instead of the card reader. If
the manual transaction works, the problem may be a defective card reader.
•Contact your VeriFone distributor or service provider.
•If the manual transaction does not work, proceed to Check the Signal
Strength.
