Bancolini Nylux, User Manual

N.B. When the USB/serial communication cable is connected to the USB interface of a PC that is running (see
subsequent section 1.5), the terminal battery is charged via the PC (max. 500mA); if the terminal is turned
off, all power is used to charge the battery (charge time is however much longer compared to that when using
the above mentioned power supply unit provided); if the terminal is running, the system is powered via the
PC and any residual energy is used to charge the battery: in this event, battery charge is maintained and this
is not an actual recharge.
1.1.3 Switching on the terminal
Once the battery is inserted and charged, the terminal can be started up.
To do so, hold the ON/OFF button pressed for at least 8 seconds until the red LED on the left of the terminal
head does not light up (see figure 1.1.n); consequently, release the ON/OFF button: the so-called boot-strap
procedure will start and the LED turns orange during boot loader execution, after which the actual operating
system starts up, the display lights up, the 'Nylux' logo appears and the orange LED simultaneously turns off;
after a few seconds the start up procedure is completed.
1.1.4 Reset and turning off the terminal
Press and hold the ON/OFF button down to turn the terminal off. The display darkens after approximately 4
seconds and the LED on the terminal head turns red: this indicates that the device is resetting:
If at this point the ON/OFF button is released, the terminal will again perform the entire start-up sequence as
above described; on the other hand, by continuing to hold down the ON/OFF button until the red LED turns
off, the terminal will close down entirely.
