### Configuring the Verifone C18 when using a Legacy Scanner <a href="#configuring_the_verifone_c18_when_using" id="configuring_the_verifone_c18_when_using"></a>

Sites that do not have a 2D scanner will need to disable swipe ahead in order to process Easy ID or a POP Membership card at the PIN pad. Do the following two steps consecutively:

* On the Verifone C18 POS, disable Swipe Ahead at Cashier Functions (CSR Func) > Maintenance > Device Configuration > PINPAD configuration > EPS PINPAD with Driver License and POP Membership.
* On the Verifone MX 900 Series PIN pad, edit the Config.Usr1 Swipe Ahead value found in System Mode at Home > Administration > Config by entering the Config.Usr1 file. Under the \[PERM] section, there will be a Swipe Ahead parameter with a '0' or a '1' value. The value should be set to ‘0’ to disable it. After the change, reboot the PIN pad.

### EMV Certified <a href="#emv_certified" id="emv_certified"></a>

This software version supports Contact and Contactless Indoor. See the Dispenser Card Reader section towards the back of these release notes for EMV Contact and Contactless Support for each dispenser manufacturer.

### Verifone EPS (LAC) Outdoor EMV <a href="#verifone_eps_-lac-_outdoor_emv" id="verifone_eps_-lac-_outdoor_emv"></a>

Outdoor EMV is only for Trinidad and Tobago locations.

### TLS Support <a href="#tls_support" id="tls_support"></a>

{% hint style="info" %}
The steps below are only required for a manual software installation. The Auto Upgrade automatically sets the TLS settings.
{% endhint %}

To set up TLS and if this is a manual software installation, follow these steps:

1. On the Verifone MX PINpad, the Port needs to be set to ‘5000’ at Configuration > Network Settings.
2. On the Verifone Commander, the POP has to be configured to “Connect with SSL” and Secure Port ‘5000’ at Configuration Client > Payment Controller > EPS Global Configuration > POP.

See the latest Verifone ViperPAY User Guide and Commander documentation for more details on accessing these areas.
