You can order NIMH batteries (L01) from Worth Data along with a 9v
recharging Power Supply that recharges the batteries completely within 2
hours. When recharging options are ordered with the Terminals, the
Terminal's Batteries Setup parameter is set for recharging "1" which allows
the batteries to be recharged under program control. Otherwise, the batteries
shipped are alkalines with no recharging options set in the Terminal.
However these are changeable by the customer. Using NIMH or alkaline
batteries, you should get 24 hours of operation (assuming 1 transaction
every 8 seconds).
If you did not order the rechargeable batteries and you change to
rechargeables, you must change the Terminal's Setup to Batteries 1 to allow
recharging. If you want to charge the batteries without having to remove
them from the Terminal, you must use the Worth Data 9v power supply.
You can safely use alkaline batteries in a terminal set for recharging,
providing you don’t plug a power supply into the terminal. Recharging
Alkaline batteries may cause the batteries to explode and leak battery acid
throughout the RF Terminal. Battery acid damage is not covered by the
Worth Data warranty because it not deemed to be “normal use”.
If you are using alkaline batteries (either regular or rechargeables) and
have selected the Rechargeables setting in the Battery setup parameter (See
Chapter 2; RF System Setup), the RF Terminal will generate the following
error message:
