VeriFone MX 860 - Calibration
The following instructions will vary somewhat based on whether or not your VeriFone MX 860 pad is equipped with a
smart card or not.
1. From the computer that connects to the pad being calibrated, make sure that the SpruceWare.NET software is
not open.
2. Reset the device by finding pressing the reset button. The reset button is located on the back (top) side edge near
the card swipe (see the picture below). Use a paper clip, etc. to press the button until the 3 blue arrow lights on
the card swipe turn on.
3. If the User Select (1) screen is displayed, choose the Secure USR1 icon; otherwise, continue to the next step.
4. At the "Enter Password" prompt, if you have an MX 860 with a smart card type: 166831; otherwise, type: 166832
(Note: if one password fails, try the other). After entering the password, press the green button on the pad (to
the right of the numeric keypad).
5. A "home" menu with icons will display. The pad supports keypad navigation as well as use of the stylus. For keypad
navigation to the calibration feature, press and release 2, 9, and 5 sequentially. To navigate using the stylus,
choose "CONFIGURE" then tap the arrow icon on the right-hand side of the display and choose "CALIBRATE." The
