Workstation 5A Setup Guide - Fourth Edition 4-3
Installing and Operating the Workstation 5A
Care and Handling
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
The occurrence of electrostatic discharge (ESD) usually takes the form of a
discharge from the operator’s hand to cash drawers, the workstation, the
magnetic stripe card reader or other peripherals. ESD is more common in dry
climates during the winter, and less common in moist climates. The
workstation has excellent built-in immunity to ESD in most environments.
However, tile or anti-static carpet is recommended in areas near the
workstation.
Operating Temperature
• The Workstation 5A operating temperature is between 0°C (32°F) and
45°C (113°F).
AC Power and Data Cabling Requirements
AC Power cabling, Ethernet and MICROS IDN data cabling should be
installed in accordance with the appropriate MICROS Site Preparation Guide.
Cleaning the Display, Cabinet, and Magnetic Stripe Reader
Recommendations for cleaning the Cabinet, Magnetic Stripe Reader and LCD
cover are described below.
LCD/Touchscreen Glass
The Operator Display overlay can be cleaned using any common
household cleaner applied with a clean cotton cloth. Always spray the cloth
with the cleaner first, then use the cloth to clean the overlay.
Cabinet
Always use a chamois or clean lint-free cloth to clean the cabinet and
screen surface. Do not use chemical, alcohol, or petroleum based cleaners
that are not recommended for plastics.
Magnetic Card Reader
Depending on how much they are used, magnetic card readers may require
periodic cleaning. MICROS recommends cleaning the heads as often as
once a day if the reader is subjected to heavy usage.
SHOCK HAZARD
Before performing preventive maintenance or cleaning
the workstation, use the power button to turn the unit off.
