Audio 

The 680 uses the VIA1708B HD audio controller. There is one internal speaker.  
Both a microphone jack and a headset jack are located in the cable well of the 680, 

as 

seen

 

below

, which allows for the connection of a microphone and headset or audio out to 

other devices. Audio is also output via the HDMI port when used.

Printer Power Port 

The Printer Power Port allows an industry standard POS printer to be powered from the 
680 and eliminates the need for a separate external power supply for the printer.  
 
The Printer Power Port supplies 24 VDC 2.5 amps and 6.0 amp surge current which will 
run most POS printers on the market. The power cable for this port is supplied standard 
with the 680 unit. The Printer Power Port will also supply power to a printer even when 
running on the optional UPS. When the 680 is powered down, then power to the printer is 
turned off. This same power circuit is used by the +24 PoweredUSB port and normally 
only one +24V device is supported at one time.
