Communication type
The terminal supports PC-EFTPOS IP Gateway via the POS.
In the event that your main communication method is down, the terminal will automatically
failover to 3G/GPRS backup communications.
2.6 Terminal setup and configuration
To begin setting up your new EFTPOS 1i terminal:
1. Ensure the terminal base is connected to power.
2. Ensure the terminal base is connected to your Point of Sale (POS) via a supported
communications method.
3. Ensure the terminal is fully charged, or is sitting on the terminal base for power.

of Sale provider or refer to your POS Guide if further information is required.
5. Hold down the green “Enter” key found at bottom right corner of the terminal keypad, until
an audible beep is heard and/or the terminal screen powers on.
6. Follow the instructions for Bluetooth pairing below.
Your terminal should display “Ready” on-screen, at which point you can begin transacting via
your POS software.
2.7 Terminal pairing with base (Bluetooth)
Your terminal uses Bluetooth communications between the Keypad and the Base, with
security measures in place for all communications.
If the base does not display a solid blue light (indicating that it is currently paired with the
terminal), follow these instructions to pair the terminal with the base:
• Press the button on the front of the base and wait for the blue light to begin blinking.
• On the Keypad, select the correct base by identifying the 9-digit serial number printed on
the underside of the base.
• Wait for the pairing to complete, which will be indicated by a solid blue light displayed on
the base.
The terminal will display the following message if Bluetooth pairing has not occurred or is
unsuccessful:
TERMINAL SCREEN
READY
NOT PAIRED
Common issues in the initial pairing process include power and communications issues
which are often resolved by checking the connections between device and power outlets.
Please contact the Merchant Helpdesk for further assistance.

2.8 Terminal configuration
Once the EFTPOS 1i terminal is connected, the Merchant ID and Terminal ID will need to be

to assist you if required.
You can use the function on the keypad from the terminal idle screen to configure the
primary communications method. To do this, press the # key at the idle screen and enter
998 to proceed to communications selection.
The following configuration options will be displayed:
1. Bluetooth Base: View the details of the connected Bluetooth base hardware, and press
“1” to unpair from the base so that your terminal can be paired with another base.
2. Bluetooth Base Version: View the firmware version of the connected Bluetooth base,
and press “2” to update the base firmware if required.
3. POS Details: View details on the POS interface methodology (such as RS232).

The host communications (GPRS or PSTN) will only be used in the event that the POS
communications to the bank are (and/or the terminal is in standalone lite mode), and this
process should be seamless during a transaction.

3.0 Procedures
3.1 Conducting Contactless Transactions
The EFTPOS 1i terminal supports contactless transactions.
Instructions:
1. Your customer should position the contactless enabled card
above the terminal screen.

transactions.
The chip card reader is located at the bottom of the
terminal below the keypad.
Instructions:

toward the terminal.
2. Insert the chip card into the chip card reader slot as far
as it will go in a smooth, continual motion.

3.4 CCV Security Codes
What is CCV?
The CCV is a three or four digit value printed on a
payment card (usually on the signature panel), used to
verify card-not-present transactions.
CCV security codes are a way to lessen the risk of fraud
and chargeback when the cardholder is not physically
present, or when a card cannot be inserted/swiped
successfully. In these cases you can key in the card
number.
A CCV security code is printed on the card but does not appear on receipts. When you key in
the CCV code, a check is made that the code matches the card number. This gives greater
assurance that the customer is in possession of the card.
Note:
• Some cards do not have a CCV code.
• CCV (Card Check Value) is also known as CVV and CVC.
Where can I find the CCV Security Code?
Some cards, for example Mastercard and Visa, have a three-digit CCV printed on the
signature panel on the reverse side of the card. Other numbers may precede the CCV. The
last three digits on the signature panel are the CCV.
Other cards, for example American Express, have a four-digit CCV on the front of the card,
above the account number.
Some cards do not have a CCV.
Should I save CCV Security Codes?
No. It is prohibited to store the CCV codes. They must remain secret. You must not write
them down or save them electronically. Doing so might lead to heavy penalties.
