Using the P400 PIN pad

This section describes the using procedures for the P400.

PIN Pad Toggle

The primary PIN pad is active by default on the POS.

1

Select Choose Pinpad

Toggle between primary and secondary PIN pads by selecting the “Choose Pinpad” option.

2

Select the secondary PIN pad

If the secondary PIN pad is selected in between the transaction (after scanning the items), the primary PIN pad will be active after the transaction is completed.

If the secondary PIN pad is selected before the transaction, the secondary PIN pad will be active for the rest of the cashier session or until the cashier toggles the PIN pad or logs out of the session.

Smart Card Reader Use

The smart card transaction procedure can vary depending on the application. Verify the proper procedure with your application provider before performing a smart card transaction.

Performing a Smart Card Transaction

1

Position the card

Position the smart card with the gold contacts facing upward.

2

Insert the card

Insert the card into the smart card reader slot in a smooth, continuous motion until it seats firmly.

3

Remove the card

Remove the card when the display indicates the transaction is completed.

Leave the smart card in the card reader until the transaction is completed. Premature removal can void the transaction.

Magnetic Stripe Card Reader Use

The P400 has a magnetic card reader that uses a triple track stripe reader. This gives the unit greater reliability over a wide range of swipe speeds and operating environments.

Position the card

Position a magnetic card with the stripe facing the keypad.

2

Swipe the card

Swipe it through the magnetic card reader.

Performing a Contactless Transaction

Present the card

Gently tap the card onto or hold the card (within 1-2”) against the surface of the display where the contactless logo appears.

2

An activated LED visual on the display accompanied by a short beeping sound indicates a successful transaction.
