Device Setup
Selecting Unit Location
Use the following guidelines when selecting a location for your device.
Ease of Use
Select a location convenient for both merchant and cardholder.
Select a flat support surface, such as a countertop or table.
Select a location near a power outlet and a network, telephone, or modem line connection.
For safety, do not string the power cord in a walkway or place it across a walkway on the floor.
Environmental Factors
The unit must be used in an attended environment.
Do not use the terminal where there is high heat, dust, humidity, moisture, or caustic chemicals or oils.
Keep the terminal away from direct sunlight and anything that radiates heat, such as a stove or motor.
Do not use the terminal outdoors.
CAUTION
The terminal is not waterproof or dustproof, and is intended for indoor use only. Any damage to the unit from exposure to rain or dust may void any warranty.
Le terminal est pas étanche ou à la poussière, et est destiné à une utilisation en intérieur. Tout dommage à l'unité de l'exposition à la pluie ou à la poussière peut annuler la garantie.
Electrical Considerations
Avoid using terminals during electrical storms.
Place the unit 10 cm away from metallic objects to avoid interference with the CTLS field.
Avoid locations near electrical appliances or other devices that cause excessive voltage fluctuations or emit electrical noise (for example, air conditioners, electric motors, neon signs, high-frequency or magnetic security devices, or computer equipment).
Do not use the terminal near water or in moist conditions.
PIN Protection Measures
Several techniques can be employed to provide for effective screening of the PIN entry keypad during the PIN entry process. These methods would typically be used in combination, though in some cases a method might be used singly.
Position V200c and V400c terminals on the check-stand in such a way as to make visual observation of the PIN entry process infeasible. Examples here include:
Visual shields designed into the check-stand. These shields may be solely for shielding purposes, or may be part of the general check-stand design.
Position the V200c and V400c so that it is angled in such a way that PIN spying is difficult.
Install V200c and V400c terminals on adjustable stands that allow consumers to swivel the terminals sideways and/or tilt forwards/backwards to a position that makes visual observation of the PIN entry process difficult.
Position in-store security cameras so that the PIN entry keypad is not visible.
Install the optional privacy shield (see Installing Privacy Shield).
The following table shows the combinations of methods that must be used when installing V200c and V400c terminals to protect the cardholder's PIN during PIN entry.

Plug the AC power pack into a wall outlet or powered surge protector.
Do not plug the power pack into an outdoor outlet or operate the terminal outdoors.
Disconnecting the power during a transaction may cause transaction data files not yet stored in terminal memory to be lost.
To protect against possible damage caused by lightning strikes and electrical surges, consider installing a power surge protector.
Ne pas brancher le bloc d'alimentation à une prise extérieure ou exploiter le terminal à l'extérieur.
Déconnexion de l' alimentation lors d'une transaction peut entraîner des fichiers de données de transaction non encore stockées dans la mémoire terminal pour être perdu.
Pour se protéger contre de possibles dommages causés par la foudre et les surtensions électriques, pensez à installer un protecteur de surtension.
The terminal lights activate when the terminal has power.
If the terminal comes pre-loaded with an application, this starts after the initial Verifone copyright screen and usually displays its own copyright screen.
Locking the Power Connector
Optionally, after inserting the round barrel connector into the power port (see Figure 15), you can lock the barrel connector to keep it engaged to the terminal even when an installation tensions the power cord (see Figure 16).
Installing Privacy Shield
The privacy shield protects the customers' PIN entry from being seen by the cashier or other customers.
Insert the pins into the front privacy shield slots of the V200c and V400c terminal.
Push down the rear section of the privacy shield until the side pins lock in place.
Figure 19 shows an example of a terminal with a privacy shield.
Using the Contactless Reader
V200c CTLS, V200c Plus, V400c, and V400c Plus units support CTLS functions when signaled by an application to conduct a contactless (CTLS) smart card transaction.
Gently tap or hold the card (within 4 cm) on the landing zone (see Figure 20).
A short beeping sound indicates a successful transaction.
Using the Smart Card Reader
V200c and V400c terminals support credit or debit card transactions via the smart card reader.
Smart card transaction procedures may vary from one application to another. Verify the procedure with your application provider before performing a smart card transaction.
Position a smart card with the contacts facing upward (see Figure 21).
Insert the smart card into the smart card reader slot in a smooth, continuous motion until it seats firmly.
Remove the card only when the application indicates the transaction is complete.
Leave the smart card in the card reader until the transaction is complete.
Premature card removal will invalidate the transaction.
Laissez la carte à puce dans le lecteur de carte jusqu'à ce que la transaction est terminée. Retrait prématuré de la carte d'invalider la transaction.
Using the Magnetic Card Reader
V200c and V400c terminals support credit or debit card transactions via the magnetic card reader.
Position the card with the magnetic stripe oriented downward, facing the keypad.
To ensure a proper read of the magnetic stripe, swipe the card smoothly through the reader in one direction (either towards the top of the screen or the bottom of the keyboard), as shown in Figure 22.
Check the screen for confirmation of a successful transaction.
