Remove the APEX from the housing to inspect and clean the inside
of the unit. When inspecting the inside of the housing and the VP,
look for the following items:
• Dirt or dust that has collected on the inside of the housing and
the circuit board
• Signs of water damage or corrosion caused by prolonged
contact to water
• Insects or insect droppings
Wipe out the inside of the housing with a soft cloth to
remove any debris that has collected.
A small can of compressed air can be used to remove
insects and dust from the circuit board.
Do not use cleaners of any kind, including water, to
clean inside the housing or on the circuit board.
Cleaning the Magnetic Stripe Reader
The APEX is shipped with a cleaning card for the magnetic stripe
reader (if installed). The cleaning card is a small, credit-card sized
plastic card with a special cleaning surface on one side that is
saturated with a cleaning solution.
To clean the reader, swipe the cleaning card several times through
the slot in the reader and dispose of the card after use. Additional
cards can be ordered from PTI Security Systems. Always keep a
supply of cards on hand.
