Orbit (cancelled)
The device has been discontinued for new installations. You will continue to receive support if required.
The Handheld Orbit (full touch with some buttons) together with the PUSH (with many fixed buttons and touchmonitor) is one of the hardware platforms for the mPOS handheld.
The Orbit is a touch device with four haptic function keys. The scanner is also suitable for QR codes and the device has particularly long battery life.
Warning against improper handling during charging
Maintaining the charging contacts - avoid frequent failures with mobile devices
One of the most common causes of failures and charging problems with mobile devices is damage or dirt on the charging contacts. In practice, these often arise due to the following causes:
-
Mechanical defects due to improper or hasty battery replacement
-
Chemical influences from sweat, drinks or even dipping sauces
-
Galvanic reactions when charging with dirty contacts
→ This leads to corrosion of the copper contacts or the formation of insulating layers that impair charging
Important instructions for changing the battery
Never change batteries under stressful conditions!
→ Stressful situations often lead to uncontrolled movements and thus to excessive force being exerted on the contacts.
Ensure that the contacts are clean and dry before placing devices in charging trays or connecting them to chargers.
Even the smallest impurities in the contact area can lead to electrical problems or irreparable damage.
Our tip: Standard training for battery replacement
Training in the correct and orderly replacement of batteries should be a mandatory part of employee induction - wherever mobile devices and exchangeable batteries are used.
Objective: Avoid device failures, increase service life and ensure smooth day-to-day operations.
Multi Charger and 4-fold Charger
The charger safely stores the device during breaks and offers the possibility to charge a spare battery in parallel.
The Multi Charger holds and charges the device without removing the battery. A spare battery can be charged simultaneously in the rear area.
The 4-fold Charger holds and charges four devices simultaneously. However, no additional batteries can be charged.
A 4-way charger frees you from many individual devices and power supplies, but a spare power supply or second device should always be available in case of an emergency, so that four handhelds are not dependent on a functioning power supply.
The standard battery will last about 5-6 hours of average use and can be recharged in about 2 hours (actual values may vary depending on requirements and environment). The Enhanced battery lasts approx. 10-12 hours. Changing the battery should not be part of the daily routine for this device, as the rear part of the housing must be removed and clipped in again. An appropriate battery should be used from the outset.
key assignment
The orbit has 5 keys at the bottom ( and one at the top left / right ). The middle silver button and the two above trigger the scanner. More keys:
- Green handset = F1 = Function menu
- Home = F2 = Invoice
- Back = F3 = New balance
- Red handset = F4 = New balance
- like F1, F2, F3 F4 on the IT-300.
Since the orbit has a border on the screen and you can't reach the top right corner with your finger, the "Red listener" key also presses the X in a dialog (if an X is currently displayed).
