Introduction Before you get started
Welcome to Moneris! This guide includes everything you need to know to set up
your VX 520 terminal and BE PAYMENT READYTM .Important notes
1. Depending on the solution you ordered from Moneris, please confirm that
you received:
Setup & Installation video
To make setting up even easier,
a VX 520 Setup & Installation video
is available online at
moneris.com/installation.
Note: This video only applies to a
standalone VX 520 terminal, not
to the VX 520 terminal with the
VX 820 external PINpad.
Standalone VX 520 terminal: VX 520 terminal with VX 820
external PINpad:
• the Moneris VX 520 terminal
• the power cable
• the dial cable
• the Ethernet cable
• thermal printer paper rolls
• the all-in-one cable
• the Moneris VX 520 terminal
• the VX 820 external PINpad with
RS232 connection cable
• the power cable
• the dial cable
• the Ethernet cable
• thermal printer paper rolls
• the all-in-one cable
2. If your terminal will be communicating with the Moneris host over High-
Speed Ethernet, please review the Moneris IP Readiness Checklist (available
at moneris.com/checklist) and ensure that your Ethernet service is ready to
support your terminal.
3. Make sure you have the following information (provided when Moneris
contacted you to confirm your terminal order):
• Your 13-digit Moneris Merchant ID.
• Settlement type: System Close (Moneris automatically closes your batch at
the end of each day) or Merchant Close (you are responsible for closing your
batch at the end of each day).

Tips for moving through the menus on the terminal
• To scroll down or up, press the first purple key on the left. The arrow above
the key indicates the direction (e.g., if the arrow points down, you can scroll
down).
• To change the direction of the arrow, press the yellow key.
• To select a menu item, press the grey function key (F1, F2, F3 or F4) that it
appears beside.

Using the touchscreen on the external PINpad
The VX 820 PINpad (referred to as the “external PINpad” in this guide) features
a 3.5 inches colour touch-sensitive screen (referred to in this guide as the
“touchscreen”). The external PINpad reacts when you touch various areas on
the touchscreen (icons) in the same way it reacts when you press a key on the
keypad.
Touchscreen tips
• Use your fingertip or an approved stylus with a soft plastic tip.
• Do not use sharp or pointed objects (e.g., pens, pencils, golf tees, etc.) to press
icons on the touchscreen.
• Keep the touchscreen clean and free of fingerprints by using a dry microfibre
cloth to wipe down the touchscreen.
• Do not use liquid cleaning agents, such as glass cleaner, on the touchscreen.

SETTING UP YOUR TERMINAL: MONERIS® VX 520
Connecting the external PINpad cable to the
terminal (optional)
If you are using the VX 520 with the external PINpad, follow these steps.
Completing the hardware setup
Connecting the external PINpad cable to the terminal
1. Turn the terminal over so that the underside is exposed.
2. Remove the cover on the connection well:
a. Lift the latch at the bottom of the terminal.
b. Flip the lid up toward the top of the terminal
so that the connection well is exposed.
3. Connect the external PINpad’s RS232 cable to the
port labelled RS232.
Note: The all-in-one cable’s connectors will already
be in place. You may need to shift the other cables
out of the way in order to connect the external
PINpad’s RS232 cable.
4. Flatten down the RS232 cable against the left side
of the splitter and hold it down as you replace the
cover. Swing the cover back over the connection
well, snapping the latch at the bottom into place.
The RS232 cable and all-in-one connection cable
should both fit snugly under the cover.
5. Proceed to Completing the hardware setup on page 7.
Connect the other ends of the cables
1. Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into the router/switch/hub/
internal wiring – whatever is applicable to the high-speed Internet service
at your specific location (please refer to the Moneris IP Readiness Checklist
if necessary; available at moneris.com/checklist).
2. Plug the other end of the dial cable into an analog phone jack.
Recommendations: Use a dedicated phone line for the terminal. Sharing
the line with another device can cause communication problems on the
terminal. If using a splitter, test both devices and note that the terminal
and the other device cannot use the phone line at the same time.
3. Plug the other end of the power cable into a wall jack.
Recommendation: Use an extension cord with surge protection.
Preparing the terminal for use
1. Wait while the device powers up. When the applications menu appears,
proceed to step 2.
2. Change the terminal’s password:
IMPORTANT: You will need to use this password every time you log on and
whenever you need to change settings so be sure to create a password you
can remember that is difficult for others to guess.
Note: If the manager password is entered incorrectly five times in a row, the
terminal will lock and will be unable to perform transactions. To unlock the
terminal, contact Moneris Customer Care at 1-866-319-7450 and request
a password reset.
a. At the applications menu, select DEBIT & CREDIT. The “Change Password”
menu appears.

3. Load paper:
Note: You must use thermal-sensitive paper rolls. Shop for point-of-sale supplies
and paper online at shop.moneris.com.
a. Open the paper well (located above the display screen): Look for the
symbol on the dark plastic latch, gently pull up on the latch, then lift the
paper well lid up and back.
b. Prepare the new paper roll: Remove the sticker and unwind the roll past
any sticker residue on the paper, then tear off the unwound portion of the
paper.
c. Place the paper roll into the paper well so that the paper rolls out from the
underside of the roll.
d. Pull the leading edge of the paper up until any glue residue on the paper
roll is past the cutting teeth of the printer.
e. Close the printer cover and lock it by gently pressing directly on it until it
clicks shut.
f. Tear off the loose end of the paper by pulling it down then sideways across
the metal teeth.
g. From the applications menu, select DEBIT & CREDIT, and then press the 3
key to feed paper through the printer and ensure it is working properly.
h. Press the (asterisk) key to return to the applications menu.
4. Proceed to Communications setup on page 9.
