Basic System
Figure 4-1 shows the basic ICE configuration. The terminal transceiver should be less than 100 feet
from the peripheral terminal device. This short range reduces the possibility of interference with other
communication systems using the same radio spectrum. Causing such interference is a violation of
FCC regulations.

Basic System Installation
Use the following procedure to install the basic system wireless hardware.
Step-by-Step
To install the basic system:
1.
Ensure the host terminal is properly configured and connected for use as a standard POS
terminal.
See the manual provided with the host POS terminal.
2.
Insert the male end of the single unit Hypercom adapter cable, Hypercom P/N 810170-001, into
the PIN pad port of the host terminal.
3.
Mount the terminal transceiver, Hypercom P/N 020123-002, to a vertical surface. Place it as high
as possible in an area that has the best visibility from the area where the peripheral terminal
devices are used. You may mount the transceiver by using the metal hook or the rubber suction
cups provided. An alternate method is to remove the metal hook and the rubber suction cups,
replacing them with double-sided tape. The terminal transceiver must not be mounted on or next
to metal objects.
