ty of communications options,
from high speed dial-up modem, to
Ethernet for connection to local
area networks, and ADSL routers.

munication modules at a time, the

chants who want to benefit from
the advantages of IP networks,
whilst maintaining a back-up con-
nection to the land-line. Through

pad meets the latest payment
industry security standards, for all
debit, credit and e-purse schemes
using chip or magnetic stripe
technology.
Simple and easy to use
Easy-Click, the instant paper
loading feature, saves precious
time when needed most. Large,
well-spaced keys facilitate entry
and help avoid errors. Three
clearly marked navigation keys
combined with the multi-line gra-
phic display create a highly intuiti-
ve user interface. Additionally,
Artema Compact’s unique mono-
cable allows the terminal to be
handed easily from the cashier to
the cardholder, whilst reducing
clutter on the counter.
