the hole and make sure that all pegs are inside the holes. Then slide the main unit
down to move the pegs into the lower slot part of the holes till it clicks. Note that all
the cables come out of the paddle from the lower edge and won’t get trapped by this
mounting operation. If later on you want to remove the main unit from the paddle,
you’ll have to press down the lock/release button on back of the paddle at the time
lifting the main unit.
OPENING CABLE COVER
Insert the tip of the latchkey into a latch hole on one side near bottom of the
main unit. Turn this key counterclockwise to the end. Do the same on the opposite
side. Be sure to take the key out of the hole.
Turn Counterclockwise
Then Take Out The
Latchkey
Then push the lock/release lever on the base backward to adjust the paddle to
the most horizontal position for ease of operation. Open the cable cover by pulling at
the removal hollow.

CONNECTING CABLES
Connect the cables required to the appropriate connectors. Please make sure
that each connector has to be connected to the right port in the right orientation. Some
connectors have to be inserted till a click is heard such as the LAN connector, the
external FDD connector, the power connector and the cash drawer connector. It is
recommended to screw on the connector once it is inserted such as the external VGA
connector, the LPT port connector and the COM port connectors. If COM1 port is to
be used, you would have to take down the COM1 terminator that is already mounted
on the COM1 port. However, it is highly suggested not to use for any serial device
that does not provide proper handshaking signals such as a serial mouse in order to
keep cash drawer control function. Adjust the slack of each cable and close the cable
cover. Use the same latch key as when opening the cable cover but this time turn it
clockwise on both sides to secure the cable cover on the main unit. Adjust the tilt
angle of the main unit for best viewing effect in the application.
CAUTION: Before doing any insertion or extraction of the power plug, be sure
to pull always the outer sleeve of the plug backward to release the
internal latch. Failure to do this could damage the power plug. Such
damage is considered as an artificial destruction and is not covered
by the warranty.
INSTALLING CASH DRAWERS
When there is only one cash drawer to be installed, just connect the standard
cable CCBLA-180 that comes with the cash drawer to the right RJ11C jack (be
careful, not the adjacent one left for MODEM).
When there are two cash drawers to be installed, please purchase and use the
optional split cash drawer control cable CCBLA-238 for the purpose of controlling
two cash drawers in the TP6000 series. The CCBLA-238 has a 6 pole plug at one end
and two 8 pole plugs at the other. The 6 pole plug should be inserted in the connector
marked “CR” found in the rear compartment of the terminal. Each 8 pole plug should
be inserted into the connector marked “signal cable from POS Printer” at the rear of
one of the cash drawer. The cable lengths for the two 8 pole plugs are different. Use

the shorter one for the original cash drawer “CR1” and use the longer one for the
extended cash drawer “CR2” that will be distinguished by the software command. In
this way, the TP6000 is capable of controlling two cash drawers independently
through software command.
WALL MOUNTING
The major part in the wall mounting kit is a bracket as shown in the picture.
Screw the bracket against the wall for mounting the TP6000 series in the direction
that the wider parts of the matching holes are at the top as shown in the picture. Align
the four matching pegs on the back of the main unit with the four matching holes in
the bracket to hold the main unit in the similar manner as installing the main unit onto
the paddle assembly. The paddle assembly is not engaged in wall mount operation.
Matching Holes

Screw At Screw Holes Through Matching Holes
LOCATION FOR INSTALLATION
As the paddle assembly is not involved in wall mount installation, the space
required for wall mount application will take only the main unit into consideration. So
the space required is 375 mm in width and 315 mm in height.
For desk top/counter application, the adjustable paddle assembly requires a
base of 270 mm deep and 260 mm wide. However, please take also the main unit into
consideration. If the main unit is tilted to near vertical position, the total height can be

either 360 mm or 380 mm depending on the position adjusted. When the main unit is
tilted to near horizontal position, the total height required is 275 mm.

USING THE TOUCH POS
APPLICATION ENVIRONMENT
It is very important that you check the following operational guidelines:
Ventilation
This terminal must NOT be operated in an environment with restricted
ventilation. The installation should be such that there is at least 25mm air clearance
around any top or side ventilation holes. The installation must also be such that there
is a free flow of air around the unit at ALL times.
Operating Environment
The equipment must not be operated or stored in extremes of both temperature
and humidity/moisture.
(Operating range 5°C to 35°C and up to 80% humidity – non condensing)
Power Supply
The operating voltage range of the power adaptor should cover the local power
supply for proper operation. The power cable, the power outlet and any power fusing
arrangements must conform to local safety regulations.
I/O Ports Utilization
The TP6000 series, designed to accommodate today’s and tomorrow’s
technology, has an adequate yet not vast number of I/O ports as limited by spacial
conditions. Therefore, selection on the peripheral device type and the port utilized
now requires some special attention. Here are some recommendations on the device
application:
ꢀ
Serial customer display – use USB to RS232 adapter to connect to USB
port or directly connect to COM1 port
ꢀ
ꢀ
MODEM – use USB modem
MSR – this option is internally connected to KB wedge.
TP6000 USER’S MANUAL 5 - 1

ꢀ
ꢀ
Parallel printer – connect to Parallel port
Serial printer – use USB to RS232 adapter to connect to USB port or
directly connect to COM1 port
ꢀ
Serial barcode scanner – use IW-2000PS2 (RS232 to KB wedge
converter) to connect to PS2 KB port
ꢀ
ꢀ
Cash drawer – connect to CR port
Serial Weight scaler – use IW-2000PS2 (RS232 to KB wedge converter)
to connect to PS2 KB port
ꢀ
ꢀ
ꢀ
Mouse – use PS2 mouse or USB mouse
KB – use PS2 KB or USB KB
Touch panel controller – please select the standard PS2 interfaced model
to free up a serial port COM2.
Should all the recommendations above fail to satisfy the customer’s needs,
please check other Posiflex product series such as TP3000 series or other PST series.
External Monitor
The external VGA port in the TP6000 series supports any regular VGA
monitor using separate AC power up to resolution 1024 x 768 with true color. Unlike
other Posiflex POS terminals, the DC powered 9” VGA mono monitor is not
supported by this series.
Serial Port – COM1
CAUTION: COM1 serial port must always be occupied by either a suitable
serial device or COM1 terminator (as supplied). Without this provision the cash
drawer control ports will fail to work correctly.
The most recommended devices for COM1 are either an external customer
display or a serial POS printer. When such devices are to be installed to the TP6000
series, please remove the COM1 terminator and store in a safe place for future use.
Serial Port – COM2
This is a standard RS232 serial port. However, this port is not available for the
models with RS232 interfaced touch controller (TP6012R, TP6015R). Any attempt to
break the cover of this port will void the product warranty.

UPS battery power, the green LED flashes.
When the optional UPS battery is going to exhaust by supporting the TP6000 in
the absence of the external power, the orange LED flashes rapidly.
When the TP6000 is turned off and the external power disappears, the LED is off.
This system will not allow powering the system up in the absence of an
external power supply.
The maximum total power consumption of the external power supply unit is
1.6 A at 115 V AC or 0.8 A at 230 V AC.

Hardware Switch
The power switch located at left side of the main unit is a slide type switch.
This switch controls the power on/off of the system. This switch turns the system on
when slid downward at original power connection status or power off status. The
switch will always spring back to its original position when external force is removed.
This switch turns the system off when slid downward again at power on status.
However, if the system hangs due to any reason such as software resource conflict a
simple slide of the switch may fail to turn off the power. In this case, please utilize the
forced power off feature by pressing the switch down for continuously 4 seconds.
However, this switch can also be programmed into an ON only switch. That
means, if the application program issues certain command according to the technical
manual of this TP6000 series, this switch will always turn the system on when
activated and meantime the forced power off feature does not apply in this mode. Of
course, the application program shall take care of the means for turning the system off.
Software Support
The TP6000 series provides a software power off command for the application
program maneuvers. The TP6000 also provides a specific means for the software to
detect if the system is working on external or UPS battery power. So the application
program can operate in split strategy against normal and AC fail conditions. The
software programmer may take reference from the technical manual of this TP6000
series for above purposes.
Preset Power On Control
The system may also be turned on according to some predetermined parameter
such as Modem Ring Up and Alarm Clock Wake Up or LAN Wake Up.
To utilize such function, the user should enter the CMOS setup by pressing
“DEL” key at system boot up, choose for “INTEGRATED PERIPHERALS” and
make the “Ring Power Up Control” enabled for Modem Ring Up or select the “Power
Up by Alarm” for Alarm Clock Wake Up. Save the configuration and exit the CMOS
setup program. The Preset Power On Control will then be ready. However, for LAN
Wake Up function, certain specific program has to be executed before power off. This

program shall prepare the terminal to standby for LAN Wake Up during power off so
that when the predefined condition is met (LAN status change or receiving certain
packet) the TP6000 will be powered on.
When the TP6000 system is turned off after a successful boot up, the defined
preset power on functions will keep monitoring for the preset conditions. When a
Modem call or LAN Wake Up Packet is received, the system will be turned on and
start to work according to the security conditions as the application program defines if
the Ring Power Up Control or LAN Wake Up function is enabled. If the Power Up by
Alarm is enabled, the TP6000 system will be turned on at the defined time (Hour :
Minute : Second) of the preset day of week, day of month, month of year or even
every day if these items are not defined.
Please note that if the TP6000 system is improperly turned off before a
complete boot up procedure, the above preset power on control functions will be
disabled until next turning off after a complete boot up.
MAGNETIC STRIPE READER
The magnetic stripe reader, if installed, will be mounted on the right edge of
the TP6000 series. When reading an ISO standard magnetic card, please face the
magnetic stripe to the center of TP6000 series and slide the card downward through
the slot.
CASH DRAWER(S)
The cash drawer control port, if connected with Posiflex cash drawer, provides
not only a way to open the cash drawer through software commands but also a
detection method for the software to check the drawer open status for consequent
security measures.
The TP6000 series provide one cash drawer connector for control over two
cash drawers. This unified CR connector, if connected with a standard cable
CCBLA180 that is an accessory of the Posiflex cash drawer CR3100 or CR3200,
controls one cash drawer. When an optional split cash drawer control cable
CCBLA238 is used with this unified CR1 connector, this connector controls two cash
drawers according to the software commands.

DISPLAY RESOLUTION
For best viewing result please set your display resolution of TP6012 at 800 x
600 with true color in the operation system. For TP6015, please set the display
resolution at 1024 x 768 with high color.
TOUCH PANEL
The touch panel in TP6000 series, either PS2 interfaced or RS232 interfaced,
when its driver is properly installed, works exactly like a standard mouse. However, if
the system is running under safe mode due to a previous improper shutdown or any
reason else, most drivers are disabled in this mode and the point touched may be off
calibrated from the mouse pointer shown. It is recommended to apply a standard PS2
mouse or keyboard for data input in this mode.
All the below mentioned mouse emulation functions can be manipulated
through relevant software. The system can give a beep when the touch panel is
touched and can respond as if the left button of a PS2 mouse is clicked at the point
touched. If the point touched is dragged across the screen surface, it can respond as if
the mouse is dragged across with left key pressed. If the point is touched, released and
touched within a short time interval, it can work just like double-clicking the mouse.
For the standard PS2 interfaced touch panel controller, touching the screen for a while
followed by a slight move of the touch without leaving the screen surface can result as
a click on the right button of the mouse at that point. For the RS232 interfaced touch
panel controller, touching any point on the screen surface after touching the right-
click sticky button results as a click on the right button of the mouse at that point.
However, the right button function is not applicable under WIN NT environment.
TOUCH TERMINAL MANAGER
The touch panel control parameters are already well calibrated in the factory
before delivery. In principal the touch panel requires no further touch up once
properly set. However, a program named “Posiflex Touch Terminal Manager” is
installed in the preloaded Windows system for the user to maneuver versatile features
of the touch terminal with PS2 interfaced touch panel controller. This program can

also be obtained through downloading from our web site. Application of this program
provides control over the MSR, the touch panel and the power control of the Posiflex
Touch Terminal. For an RS232 interfaced touch panel, the touch panel part of the
following description should be disregarded and please refer to the paragraph “RS232
TOUCH MONITOR MOUSE” instead.
This program controls software gating of data read from each MSR track and
the way data is sent from the reader to the system including the coding method against
language systems, data transmission speed, delivery and selection on leading/ending
code of each track to be sent to the system.
This program also controls the beep generated when the touch panel is
touched, the detail in right button click emulation and provides touch panel re-
calibration.
This program can also be used to define the power switch to be on only or
on/off switching, the delay time before software power off and whether an UPS
battery is engaged in the power control system.
RS232 TOUCH MONITOR MOUSE
If the product model purchased is TP6012R or TP6015R, the touch panel
controller used is the RS232 interfaced controller. The “Touch Panel Manager” of the
above “Posiflex Touch Terminal Manager” should be discarded and a separate
software Monitor Mouse should be used. In these models, the connector COM2 will
be plugged with a cover to inhibit any use of this port other than the connected RS232
touch controller. Removal of this cover voids the product warranty!!
In principle, the driver for the RS232 touch controller is installed with the
systems equipped with the RS232 touch controller. However, if a re-installation is
required, please select “SmartSet Serial Controller on COM2” for controller type
selection during the installation process.
Once the RS232 touch controller is installed, the user can utilize it to calibrate
the touch screen, to define mouse button emulation mode, to enable right button
emulation or to define the click sound’s tone and duration. Please click “Start”,
“Setting”, “Control Panel” and “Elo Touchscreen” to engage this utility.
