3. Place the components on a table or countertop.
4. Save the shipping cartons and packing material for repacking or moving
in the future.
Selecting a Location
Warning:T he MX 900 Series terminal is designed for indoor use only.
Use the following guidelines to select a location for the MX 900 Series terminal.
1. Select a location for the terminal that offers adequate ventilation and
protection and is convenient for the user and merchant.
2. Place the MX 900 Series terminal on a flat surface, such as a table or
countertop, or mount it on a mounting stand supplied by VeriFone. A void
areas with:
– Excessive heat or dust
– Oil or moisture
– Devices that cause excessive voltage fluctuations or electrical noise,
such as air conditioners, fans, electric motors, neon signs, or highfrequency security devices must be no closer than 24 inches
– Direct sunlight or objects that radiate heat
Note: Interference Sources:
Special care is required when mounting the MX 900 Series
terminal in sites that utilize anti-theft devices positioned at
doorways or surface mounted deactivator pads. Devices of this
type, such as Sensormatic brand devices, generate strong
electromagnetic fields which may interfere with MX 900 Series
terminals. Always select mounting locations at least 6 feet from
doorway units and at least 18 inches from surface mounted
deactivator pads.
Note: Mounting Considerations:
V er i Fone recommends the use of an approved stand for all
mounting situations. Position the terminal conveniently in
relation to power, ECR and LAN connections. Ensure the MX 900
Series terminal is located in a manner that allows customers to
swipe their magnetic cards or insert their Smart Cards in a
smooth and comfortable motion without encountering
obstructions. If the unit will be swiveled during normal operation,
V eriFone requires the use of an approved swivel stand. The stand
must limit the swivel to 180 degrees to prevent twisting and
damage to the MX 900 Series cable. After mounting, verify all
cables move freely and do not twist when the unit is rotated
throughout its range of motion.

Warning:Do not use the MX 900 Series terminal near water, including a
bathtub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub. Do not use
in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.
3. Before connecting the terminal to the power pack, complete the
installation by connecting all the cables (see Connecting the Device and
Power Up with the Multiport Cable).
Stand Mount
In most retail spaces, the terminal is positioned on a stand mount. To install the
terminal on the stand mount:
1. Install the stand mount on the countertop in the desired lane over an
appropriate hole through which the wiring connections can be threaded.
2. Thread all wiring connections through the center of the stand mount.
3. Make all wiring connections.
4. Align and seat the three pins on the top plate of the stand mount
platform with the three key-hole slots on the bottom of the terminal.
5. Slide the terminal down until the unit seats securely.
6. Position the stand so that it is protected from being bumped by shopping
carts or other items. Being bumped and potentially trigger the system
into “thinking” a breach attempt has occurred, causing the encryption
keys to be cleared.

Key Hole Slots
Mounting Holes
Wall Mount
The MX 900 Series terminal can be mounted on a wall. To wall mount the MX 900
Series terminal:
1. Create a template of the three key hole slots on the bottom of the
MX 900 Series terminal.
2. Locate a wall stud to base center placement of the MX 900 Series
terminal unit.
3. Mark the hole placement on the desired wall location.
4. Prepare holes for screw placement. For mounting into drywall use 1/8"
Hollow Wall Anchors. Other stud mountings use #6 trim screws. After
installation apply 30 pounds force downward to ensure proper mounting.
a. Create a small hole in which to screw in self-tapping wood screws, or
b. Insert molly screws into prepared holes in sheet rock wall.
5. Insert screws into prepared holes, leaving approximately 6.35mm (1/4”)
of the screw above the level of the wall.
Note: Adjust the screw depth till the unit is firmly mounted.
6. Align and seat screws in the key hole slots.
7. Slide the MX 900 Series terminal down until the unit seats securely.
