Overview
Installation The installation kit consists of:
the custom cover plate from GB designed specifically for the reader installation on the BATMFour,
the USB reduction for the data connection, and
basic mounting fasteners.
Obviously, you’ll also need a QPay Q5000 (not sold or included by GB).
Installation steps
Place the reader display down (onto a suitable surface so as not to scratch it) and place the custom plate onto the reader.
Align the mounting holes with the thread in reader. Use the USB-C cutout for roughing out the position.
...
Use the supplied screws and washers to attach the reader (there is 1 spare of each). Do not tighten them individually, rather start ALL and THEN tighten them together.
...
Gently tighten the 4 screws. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. The device nuts are encased in plastic. You only need to ensure that the reader is not loose. If you overtighten these screws, you may damage the reader.
