This document explains how to install the charging base for the PAX A920 or A920 Pro terminal and included silicone sleeve. The charging base makes it easy to recharge the terminal without having to remove the silicone sleeve to ensure that the USB power connector is properly seated in the terminal’s charging port.
NOTE: The terminal must be fitted with the PayFacto-branded silicone sleeve for the best results. The PayFacto silicone sleeve displays the PayFacto logo on the back. You should not use the charging base for any terminal not protected by the silicone sleeve.
To use the charging base, you need only place the terminal(s) vertically on the base so the printer rests in the cradle at the top of the charging base.
NOTE: The charging base should only be used to charge your terminal(s); it is not designed to be a storage location for the terminal(s).
If the status light remains blue after you place the terminal on the base, the terminal is not seated correctly, and not connecting to the base’s gold charging contacts.
IMPORTANT! Do not slide a terminal onto the base, as it can damage the gold charging contacts. Always place the terminal onto the base vertically, as shown below
The LED at the bottom edge of the charging base indicates the terminal’s charging status:
To ensure the best charging results, you must use the original AC power adapter that came with your PAX A920 or A920 Pro terminal. The AC power adapter should have the PAX logo printed on one side as shown below:

To protect your PAX A920 or A920 Pro terminal from minor impact damage, you should install the silicone sleeve provided with the terminal charging base as the charging base is designed specifically for terminals with the sleeve.
Insert the top of the terminal into the sleeve's printer protection until the sleeve fits snugly onto the terminal’s top.
Pull the bottom of the sleeve over the bottom edge of the terminal.
Repeat for any additional terminals you intend to place on the charging base.
NOTE: To add or change a SIM card, you need to remove the sleeve from the terminal.
