  1. Slot the bolts through the installation panel and on through to the EVA clamping plate (VPN PPL159-417-01-A).

  2. Secure the unit with M4 washers and nuts. Tighten the nuts using the recommended tightening torque of 5.0 kgf cm (0.49 Nm or 4.3 lbf in).

  1. Remove the clear protective screen from the front of the unit.

Mounting the Controller Unit

This section shows how to attach the Controller Unit to the installation panel for stability and security.

Use the following steps to install the Controller Unit:

Figure 6: Mounting the Controller Unit
  1. Align the Controller Unit mounting holes to the installation panel holes.

  2. Insert four bolts and tighten the nuts using a recommended tightening torque of 5.0 kgf cm (0.49 Nm or 4.3 lbf in).

Connecting the Antenna Unit to the Controller Unit

Use the following cables to connect the Antenna Unit to the Controller Unit:

  • RJ45 to RJ45 (VPN CBL159-314-01-A)

  • SMA cable, 0.8 m (VPN CBL159-302-03-A)

For EMVCo L1 compliance, please use the provided cables.

Both connections are necessary for using the UX 410 to operate.

  1. Connect one end of the RJ45 plug to the rear of the Antenna and the other end to the Controller Units.

  2. Connect one end of the SMA connector to the ports of the Antenna and the other end to the Controller Units.

Figure 7: Connecting the UX 410 Antenna to the Controller Unit

Your mounting surface may have different installation instructions. Refer to your mounting device's user guide for further instructions.

To disconnect cables, use the same steps described above in reverse. If exchanging cables, use a Verifone-approved cable. See Accessories for cable ordering information.

Contactless Support

This Antenna Unit supports the global contactless program specifications from American Express, MasterCard, Visa, Discover, ISIS Smart Tap, and Google Wallet with virtually no changes to existing payment hardware or software.

Installing or Replacing SAM Cards

You may need to install a security access module (SAM) card or replace the old card. You can find two SAM slots on the Controller Unit, located under a removable protective cover (see Figure 8).

To install or replace SAM cards:

  1. Disconnect the device from all power sources.

  2. Disconnect the device from any external devices.

  3. Slide the SAM cardholder cover down and swing away from the SAM compartment.

Refer to Figure 11 illustration to connect 4 pin plug to the 6 pin socket.

For more information regarding your UX 410 Reader and Controller Unit configuration, contact your local Verifone service provider. For cable ordering information, refer to Accessories chapter.

Using the Reader

The contactless reader is only active when signaled by an application for the start of a contactless card transaction.

When the UX 410 antenna unit is ready to accept a transaction, the CTLS logo and first LED from the left will light up.

Conducting a Contactless Transaction

To conduct a contactless transaction, hold the card (within 4 cm) or gently tap against the surface of the contactless antenna, marked by the logo.

Figure 12: Conducting a Contactless Transaction

After you tap your card, all the LEDs will light up and the buzzer will sound for about 2 seconds, prompting you to remove your card.

The contactless unit uses various audible and visual confirmations to confirm transactions.

The actual audible and visual confirmations may vary depending on regional and customer requirements.
