The Model 4 is heavyweight with a cash drawer, while the Model 4d is portable with a small foot-print. Within the next several months we will be shipping a new model 4B POS Terminal in place of the current Model 4 Terminal. This product represents a new product code and redesign of the circuit board, not merely a chip upgrade.
New functionality includes backlit display and improved sound tones.
Upgrades are available by contacting Customer Service . The new Model 4B Terminal and software are downwardly compatible and will work side by side with earlier Model 4's without any difficulty. We will continue to support all earlier models under maintenance agreements. For those districts that are currently replacing Model 3 Terminals with Model 4 Terminals under existing purchase order or bid commitments, we will continue to ship Model 4 Terminals until our inventory is depleted. At that time we will ship Model 4B Terminals to fulfill those orders at no additional cost Please be aware that the current allowance SNAP Systems is offering for trading in Model 3 Terminals to Model 4 Terminals will be discontinued as of December 31, 1999.
