Omni 3200M Installation Guide
The BellSouth Intelligent Wireless Network also offers connections with complem entary net work s and sever al host connectivity options.
Each Omni 3200M terminal is assign ed a un ique code bef ore i t is distributed to end users. This code, called the MAN, automatically identifies your terminal to the BellSouth Intelligent Wireless Network when you process transactions.
The transportable Omni 3200M supports many different kinds of business applications, including electronic Point-Of-Sale (POS) payment transfer and authorization, credit, debit, and ATM card transactions, check processing, electronic benefits transfer (EBT), and inventory and process tracking.
Installing the Omni 3200M
Step 1: Select an Indoor Location for the Terminal
Select an indoor location for the Omni 3200 wireless terminal that is convenient for both merchant and cardholder. Here are some important additional considerations:
Place the terminal on a flat surface such as a table or
countertop. Using an optional mounting kit from VeriFone, you can also securely fasten the terminal to a flat surface (see “Accessories” on page 34).
Do not attempt to mount the Omni 3200M terminal on a
wall. The terminal’s antenna must be in a vertical position for the radio module to operate properly.
For ventilation, and to meet FCC requirements, at least
22.1 centimeters (8.7 inches) of clear space must be maintained around the terminal when it is installed.

Omni 3200M Installation Guide
Choose a location that is free and clear of any obstruction
that could cause radio interference, such as metal blinds or a large metal partition.
To perform some periodic maintenance functions, such as
upgrading the terminal software, you will need to be able to move the terminal within reach of a modular telephone company jack.
Keep the terminal out of direct sunlight and away from
any type of object or appliance that radiates heat.
Do not use the terminal where there are chemicals or oils,
and avoid exposure to dust, moisture, rain, or very high humidity.
Avoid locating the terminal near electrical appliances or
other devices that may cause excessive voltage fluctuations or electrical noise, such as air conditioners, fans, electric motors, neon signs, high-frequency or magnetic security devices, or computer equipment.
Warning: Do not use the terminal near water, including a bathtub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, or near a swimming pool .
Step 2: Unpack the Shipping Carton
Carefully inspect the shipping carton and its contents for possible shipping damage (see Figure 2).
Note: If the Omni 3200M terminal, or any other component, appears to be damaged, please file a claim immediately with the shipping company and then notify your local VeriFone distributor or service provider.

A ther mal printer, integrated into the upper
part of the terminal. In the top left corner of the terminal is a small, green “power-on” and “no paper” indicator li ght , and a pap er feed but to n. An icon, shown to the right, indicates the location and function of the paper feed button.
A rounded base for the antenna assembly, built in to the
back of the terminal, and located to the right of the paper roll holder . In a later step, you will install the antenna onto the threaded connector post on this base.
Connection Ports on the Back Panel
If you turn the terminal around and view it from the back, looking underneath and to the right of the paper roll holder, you will notice five modular jacks, or ports (see Figure 5). These ports, described in left-to-right order below, let you connect the terminal to a telephone line (optional for the wireless Omni 320 0M), to option al peripheral devices, a nd to a power source.

Omni 3200M Installation Guide
Telephone Line Ports
On the left side of the back panel are two RJ11-type
modular jacks for optionally connecting the wireless terminal to a telephone line:
The first port is identified by a telephone­shaped “Telset” icon (shown to the right). You use the Telset port to connect the Omni 3200M to a telephone base unit.
The second telephone line port is identified by a jack-shaped “Telco” icon (shown to the right). You use the Telco port to connect the Omni 3200M to a modular telephone wall jack.
Ports for Attaching Optional Peripherals
There are two RJ45-type modular jacks (serial ports) for
connecting optional peripheral devices: The first serial port is identified by an “RS232”
icon (shown to the right). You use this port to connect a VeriFone CR 600 check reader, or another type of serial device.
The second serial port is identified by “Bar Code” and “PIN Pad” icons (shown to the right). You use this port to connect a PIN pad, smart card reader/writer, or bar code wand.
Power Pin Connector Port
On the lower right-hand side of the back of the
terminal is a port for conn ecting the terminal to a power source. This port is identified by an “electrical power” icon (shown to the right).
