<figure><img src="/files/YKXvxoWxTvnDdWkKma4B" alt="" width="563"><figcaption><p>Figure 13 Smart Card Transaction</p></figcaption></figure>

### To conduct a smart card transaction:

1. Position the smart card with the gold contacts facing upward.
2. Insert the card into the smart card reader slot in a smooth, continuous motion until it sits firmly.
3. Remove the card when the display indicates that the transaction is completed.

## Contactless Transactions

The KX600 kiosk unit supports contactless transactions through an integrated contactless module. The device only becomes active for contactless smart card transactions when initialized by an application in the POS terminal.

1. Gently tap the card onto or hold the card (within 4 cm) 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.
