Parts List
Verify that you have the following hardware for the installation of the ViVOpay VP5300:
•
ViVOpay VP5300 P/N SPTP2-988-33-2C-0C or SPTP2-988-33-2CD-0C.
•
(Optional) ViVOpay VP5300 NFC Antenna P/N ID-80152002-001 or ID-80152002-002. You will
need this item, and its cable (P/N 80136204-001), if you will be using VP5300's contactless
(NFC) capabilities.
•
USB cable P/N 80152210-001, or RS-232 cable P/N 80152211-001.
•
Power supply P/N 140-2035-00.
Installation of Reader
•
Locate, mark, and drill holes for the four main mounting points of the unit, spaced 89mm
apart lengthwise (on center), and spaced 45mm apart (on center) along the short axis. Use a
#12 drill.
•
Secure the unit to the enclosure with bolts or screws of appropriate depth. Note that the
anti-tamper nubs, located behind the mounting gasket on the unit's right side (when viewed
head-on; the side nearest the molded-in ViVOpay logo), must be depressed when the unit is
mounted. Ensure that the gasket is compressed to a degree necessary to ensure anti-tamper
nub depression (and to protect against unnecessary moisture ingress).
15
ViVOpay VP5300 User Manual
4.3
Refer to the VP5300 Antenna 3-view drawing. If you are using the VP5300's contactless capability,
you will need to install the optional NFC antenna and its cabling.
Use the following instructions to mount the antenna on the exterior of a kiosk.
Mounting the ViVOpay VP5300 External NFC Antenna
Note: It is recommended that you experiment with and verify the orientation of the
ViVOpay VP5300 NFC Antenna before marking and drilling mounting holes, ensuring that
the antenna is far enough away from the main body of the VP5300 so that insertion of a
"tap card" in the unit's contact-EMV slot doesn't trigger an unwanted NFC interaction.
Important: Mark holes in such a way as to ensure that the ViVOpay VP5300 NFC Antenna is
oriented with the LEDs at the top.
1. Locate and mark the four 4.4mm (0.173 inch) mounting holes.
2. Locate and mark two 14.0 mm (0.551 inches) access holes (used for connecting the
antenna barrel connector (gold-plated) and the LED power and data cable (Molex
terminated) to the unit. Notice that these holes are located off-center toward the top of
the unit.
3. Drill the four 4.4 mm (0.173) mounting holes using a number 17 drill bit.
4. Drill the two access holes (14.0 mm, 0.551 inch) holes using a 35/64 drill bit.
16
ViVOpay VP5300 User Manual
VP5300 NFC
5. Remove the nuts from the four mounting studs on the back of the antenna.
6. Route the end of the cable (80136204-001) with the RJ-45 connector through the matching
14.0 mm (0.551 inch) hole in to the kiosk. Make sure that the front of the antenna will be
properly oriented (not upside down) on the kiosk before inserting the four screws into the
mounting holes.
7. Align the four threaded posts with their mounting holes and attach the ViVOpay VP5300
NFC Antenna to the mounting surface. Make sure that the cable is not pinched, rubbing,
or binding.
Antenna
8. Use the four nuts to secure the ViVOpay VP5300 NFC Antenna to the surface of the kiosk.
Make sure to tighten the nuts securely so that the antenna does not move freely on the
outside surface of the kiosk.
Note: Tighten the nuts to 5-7 in/lbs. for a good weather-tight seal.
9. Attach the end of the cable with the SMB barrel connector through the right 14.0 mm
(0.551 inch) hole, and secure it to its socket on the back of the antenna. The SMB
connector pushes onto the socket.
17
ViVOpay VP5300 User Manual
10. Attach the RJ-45 connector (male) coming from the ViVOpay VP5300 NFC Antenna to the
RJ-45 receptacle (female) on the 80136204-001 cable.
Flush-Mounting the Antenna
The RF field of the antenna is sensitive to the proximity of metal. If you are flush-mounting the
antenna in a metal surface or bezel, you have three options:
•
Mount with the RF emitting surface of the antenna at least 1cm forward of any metal.
•
Mount with the RF emitting surface of the antenna at least 1cm behind any metal. This will
reduce the effective range of the antenna.
•
Mount flush with the metal but allow a minimum of 1cm spacing between the antenna and
the metal.
In all cases, test the antenna mounting before engaging in a production-ready installation.
Attaching the Cables from the Antenna to the VP5300
1. Attach the SMB barrel end of the cable (80136204-001) from the antenna to the SMB post
of the ViVOpay VP5300. The connector slides on.
2. Attach the Molex end of the cable (80136204-001) from the antenna to the ViVOpay
VP5300, where the Molex receptacle sits next to the RJ-45 receptacle.
18
ViVOpay VP5300 User Manual
Note: Verify that the polarizing lug on the end of the data cable is
facing towards the correct side of the ViVOpay VP5300 (away
from the mounting plate) before inserting the connector. If the
Molex is installed incorrectly (upside-down), it will apply the
wrong polarity to the LEDs and quite likely damage them.
4.4
The VP5300 can be powered through the RS-232 communications cable or the USB Y-connector.
Connect the +7.5 to 45VDC power supply (P/N 140-2035-00) to the barrel receptacle on the RS-232
cable, or the barrel part of the Y-cable for USB, by sliding the power supply barrel into the receiving
recess.
Plug the unit in to an AC outlet and verify that the VP5300 lights up.

The front panel of the ViVOpay VP5300 incorporates a removal-detection switch behind the
bezel's rubber gasket, on the unit's right-edge flange (when viewed head-on, as in the illustration
below). For bench testing, you may find it desirable to clamp the detection-removal nubs closed
using a metal strip held on with two screws (see illustration below). It's necessary to engage the
removal-detection feature, for example, before attempting to pair a VP5300 with a compatible ID
TECH PINpad, such as the SmartPIN L100 keypad.

This tests the antenna's ability to read the Contactless test card. If unsuccessful, there will be no
reaction from the reader. If you use a test card and the antenna is attached to the VP5300, a
dummy transaction can be tested. The transaction will not be authorized and will come back with
a response, but will at least test for end-to-end connectivity.
5. Installation Points
•
The VP5300 is designed to be mounted on a metal surface and in reasonably close proximity
to any internal motors and electrical devices that may be operating inside the kiosk. However,
the unit (like all NFC/RFID devices) is susceptible to RF and electromagnetic interference. It is
important that the unit not be mounted near (within 3 or 4 feet) large electric motors,
computer UPS systems, microwave transmitters, anti-theft devices, radio transmitters,
routers, and so on.
•
Close proximity of metal to the RF-emitting end of the antenna can greatly reduce the range
of the antenna.
•
Tie all cables neatly with nylon cable-ties and route them so that they are inaccessible and
invisible to customers. Label the cable ends as "host," "ViVOpay" and "power," to simplify
connection testing or component replacement, particularly when untrained individuals might
be involved.
•
Test theinstallation using a test card to perform an end-to-end transaction (the same as an
actual purchase). The NFC antenna front panel's light should illuminate. Even if the transaction
is declined (as it should be with a test card), it will prove connectivity all the way through the
system. If possible, the store manager or some other responsible party should test each
VP5300 on a regular basis (perhaps at the start of each day or at least once per week) with a
test card to ensure continued operation and functionality. If the unit is rebooted on a regular
basis (such as every night) it is important to test the contactless reader portion as soon as
possible afterwards to ensure continued communication.
6. RF Interference
Q. Why do I need to know about RF interference?
A. Contactless payment devices use radio frequency technology to send card data to a
contactless terminal reader.
Q. How can RF interference affect contactless payment?
A. Radio frequency interference can cause data errors. If RF interference is present,
contactless payment devices may operate intermittently or inconsistently.
Q. Where does RF interference come from?
A. Radio frequency interference (RFI) can originate from a wide number of sources at the
point-of-sale (POS). Some examples of sources of RF energy and RF interference include:
AM/FM radio and TV transmitters
2-way radios, pagers
Mobile telephones
Power lines, transformers

Q. What should I do if I suspect RF interference exists in my environment?
A. Begin by inspecting your environment for possible sources of RF interference.
Q. Do equipment manufacturers test their devices for RF interference?
A. Yes. Electronic equipment is tested for RFI sensitivity by the manufacturers. These tests
are performed in a controlled laboratory environment and will often not replicate the types
of situations that would be encountered in your own point-of-sale (POS) environment.
Q. What RF levels will impact RF operations?
A. Factors that can cause RF interference vary case-by-case. There are no set rules defining a
single RF level that will cause RFI. RFI depends on the sensitivity of the equipment under
consideration, or how low an interpreting signal can be in the presence of the equipment and
cause problems.
Equipment can be particularly sensitive to very low signal levels of one frequency and yet be
quite immune to high signal levels of another frequency -- so frequency is an important
factor. Some electronic system components are internally shielded and have a very high
immunity to interference; but generally, most equipment has not been so engineered.
7. Firmware Upgrade
The VP5300 can have its firmware upgraded in the field using either serial or USB interfaces.
Preparation
To update the new firmware you will need:
•
PC with available serial or USB port
•
VP5300 with a serial data cable or a USB cable attached
•
Firmware files (including Boot Loader files) for the desired firmware
•
Software (for the PC) that will upload the firmware files to the VP5300
7.2 Uploading Firmware for RS232 or USB Need rewrite based on the latest Secure
bootloader
1. Move firmware files (*.fm) and bootloader .exe files into into the same folder.
2. Check and confirm device is correctly connected to the power source and RS-232/USB
connection.
3. If RS232 is the interface choice, then please close all software that is using RS-232
communication.
