- Charge base: Dock the terminal on the optional charging base.
Battery status indicators
The battery icon displays in the status bar. The icon reflects the battery charge status/charge level.

Charging the battery
Charging the battery
- Charge the terminal’s internal battery for 4 hours using one of the following methods:
- Optional charge-only base (see below)
-
Direct-to-terminal charge cable (see below).
Recommendations: Always plug the power cable into the power source last to avoid power surges. Use a power bar equipped with surge protection where possible. Do not use the power cable from your existing terminal, as it may damage your new terminal.Important: You must use the exact power adaptor and cables provided by Moneris to work with the Moneris Move/5000 terminal and base. Failure to do so may affect the operability of, or cause damage to, the equipment.

Wireless communication indicators
Wireless communication indicators
There are 2 variations of the wireless terminal.
Terminals with dual communication (both 4G and Wi-Fi communication)
The terminal uses long-range cellular communication (4G or 3G) to send and receive information to and from the Moneris host. The terminal communicates via 4G by default for faster communication rates, and uses 3G as a fallback where 4G is not available. If you set up a Wi-Fi network, the terminal will switch to Wi-Fi when the Wi-Fi signal is stronger.
Terminals with Wi-Fi communication only
You must set up a Wi-Fi network on the terminal in order to communicate with Moneris. You may disregard any references to 4G in this manual.
Network indicators
The network indicator appears in the status bar at the top of the screen.
Icon | Description |
4G | Terminal is currently connected to and using the authorized carrier's 4G wireless network. |
3G | Terminal is currently connected to and using the authorized carrier's 3G wireless network (as fallback). |
Wi-Fi | Terminal is currently connected to your local Wi-Fi network. |
To test 4G/3G wireless communication:
- While the terminal is powered on, confirm that the 4G/3G status icons listed above are displayed.
- Confirm that there is sufficient signal strength (see the Signal strength indicator table below).
Signal strength indicator
