Chapter 2
Installing the ViVOpay 8100e
Overview
Before you connect and mount the ViVOpay 8100e, you should plan the installation to conform to
PCI requirements and minimize radio frequency interference. Once you have determined the
location and mounting of the ViVOpay 8100e, you can connect it to power and the POS terminal.
Finally, you should test the ViVOpay 8100e to make sure the installation is successful.
Site Planning
Two environmental considerations affect how you install the ViVOpay 8100e. PCI certification has
specific restrictions on how the reader is positioned to prevent PIN theft. You should also consider
objects and devices near the reader that may affect the performance of the contactless radio
frequency antenna.
PCI PED Compliance
The ViVOpay 8100e is a PCI certified PIN/Debit payment device. PCI certification requires that
sufficientprotectionbe providedto ensurethat enteringa PINnumber CANNOTbe viewedby athird
party (such as another customer standing nearby, the cashier, or a security camera).
The ViVOpay 8100e has design elements, such as a recessed keypad, that meet some of these
requirements. However, to fully implement PCI make sure you consider the following.
1. The ViVOpay 8100e must be in a location that will NOT force a customer to enter a PIN that
can be viewed by a third party (for example, a customer must tilt or rotate the device for
better accessibility due to objects blocking a card swipe).
2. If the ViVOpay 8100e is elevated on a mounting stand, shielding must be provided on the
mount to prevent a PIN being viewed by a third party.
3. If the ViVOpay 8100e is mounted on a counter top, additional shielding (which can include
other devices such as a cash register as long as conditions in (1) above are met) must be
provided to ensure that the PIN cannot be viewed by a third party (including cashier and
security camera).
PCI Compliance Guidelines
Before completing the installation, you must verify the ViVOpay 8100e is positioned so that the PIN
entryis notvisible to other customers, thecashier behindthecounter,orvideo surveillancecameras.
If PIN entry is visible, the ViVOpay 8100e must be repositioned or shielding added until PIN entry
cannot be observed.
The following sample tests usually require at least two people—one to simulate entering the PIN
whilethe other attemptstoview the keypad.Fordetailedinformationon PCIcompliance,consult PCI
compliance documentation.
WARNING: PCI requires that the device be mounted so that the PIN entry cannot be
observed by a third party (such as another customer standing in line, the cashier at the
counter, or a security camera mounted in the ceiling to observe the cash register area). If
the PIN entry can be observed, the store owner may be responsible for any losses incurred
by the customer if it can be determined that the customer’s PIN was stolen at that location.

ViVOpay 8100e User Guide 4
Installing the ViVOpay 8100e
Can Another Customer View the PIN?
While one person stands at the ViVOpay 8100e with their hand positioned to enter the PIN, the other
tester should try to observe the keypad from behind and beside the first person.
Can the Cashier View the PIN?
While one person stands at the ViVOpay 8100e with their hand positioned to enter the PIN, the other
tester should stand behind the counterand try to observe the PIN keypad. The second tester should
move around a little to see if there is a position where they can observe PIN entry.
Can the Video Camera View the PIN?
While one person stands at the ViVOpay 8100e with their hand positioned to enter the PIN, the other
tester should observe what is being recorded by any video camera with a view of the ViVOpay
8100e. This may require playing back a recording to see if PIN entry is visible. If the video camera
is moveable, the second person should move the video camera to determine if there is a position
where PIN entry can be observed.
Retesting Requirements
If PIN entry on the ViVOpay 8100e is observable in any of the above tests, you must reposition the
ViVOpay 8100e and completely retest all locations to verify that PIN entry is not visible. Consider
placing a display to block observation from that position.
Repositioning the ViVOpay 8100e to block observance of PIN entry at one location may expose PIN
entry to observation at another location. PCI requires that you reposition the ViVOpay 8100e and
retest until PIN entry is secure from observation.
Radio Frequency Interference
To perform contactless transactions, the ViVOpay 8100e uses aradio frequency antenna. The range
(reading distance) and performance of the reader can be affected by other radio frequency emitters
and proximity to metal.
For best performance, adhere to the following guidelines:
• Do not position the ViVOpay 8100e closer than 1 foot (30 cm) to ViVOpay readers or other
RF-emitting devices (non-NFC). Some environments may require greater distances.
• Do not position the ViVOpay 8100e near radio transmitters.
• Avoid placing the ViVOpay 8100e on or near large metal objects.

This section describes how to install the ViVOpay 8100e. The basic steps are:
• Connect to power and POS
• Mount if required
• Test the installation
Connector Access
The ViVOpay 8100e connectors are beneath a cover on the bottom of the reader.
To access the connectors
1. Turn over the ViVOpay 8100e so that the connector cover is visible.
2. Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver to remove the captive screw that holds the connector cover
in place.

Installing the ViVOpay 8100e
3. Slide the connector cover away from the ViVOpay 8100e.
If the captive screw catches, invert the ViVOpay 8100e to remove the connector cover.
Install a SAM Card
All ViVOpay 8100e models have one SAM card slot with the option of a second. If you are using a
SAM card(s) in your application, insert the SAM card as shown by the SAM card icon. Make sure
that the SAM card is fully engaged in the slot before inserting all the way.
Warning: Do not insert or remove a SAM card while the ViVOpay 8100e is powered. This will cause
permanent damage to the SAM card.
