<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a POS terminal that has measures against malfunction, data loss, failure or life-shortening due to abnormal temperature rise. <P>SOLUTION: The POS terminal 20 has a temperature sensor 26 for detecting a temperature at a predetermined part of the terminal. When a detection result of the temperature sensor 26 exceeds a first threshold level, a display part 24 displays a caution message and a current temperature. Also, when the detection result of the temperature sensor 26 exceeds a second threshold level higher than that of the first threshold level, a display part 24 displays a warning message for urging a user to cut off the POS terminal 20 and a current temperature, which are printed out by a printing unit 25. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
