SAM has five components on the station counter: the touch screen terminal, a credit
card reader, a barcode scanner, a cash drawer, and a printer. Located in the station
basement is a PC mainframe, our Internet connection, and battery backup.

This brief instruction manual will give you all the information you need to work

effortlessly with SAM.

IMPORTANT!

Never attempt to clean the touch screen with water or

cleaning liquids or sprays. If you must dust the

screen use spray air or a very soft cloth or dusting

brush. Do not clean with paper towel.
