WARNING
CAUTION

PIN Protection Measures

Do not use the V205c outdoors.
The V205c is not waterproof or dustproof and is intended for indoor use only. Any damage to the unit from exposure to rain or dust can void any warranty.
Electrical
Considerations
Contactless
Considerations
Avoid using this product during electrical storms.
Do not use the V205c unit near water or in moist conditions.
Disconnect the device from its POS terminal before cleaning.
Due to risk of electrical shock or terminal damage, do not use the terminal near water, including a bathtub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool. Avoid using this product during electrical storms. Avoid locations near electrical appliances or other devices that cause excessive voltage fluctuations or emit electrical noise (for example, air conditioners, neon signs, high frequency or magnetic security devices, or electric motors).
Avoid having metallic objects in proximity of the contactless antenna. If you need to mount the terminal to vertical or inclined surfaces, use a flat, non-metallic mounting plate.
Using an enclosed metal frame or mount may negatively affect contactless
performance.
PIN Protection
Measures
Use the following techniques to provide effective screening of PIN-entry devices (PEDs) during the PIN entry process. You can use these methods in combination, although in some cases a single method might suffice:
Position the terminal on the check-in stand in such a way as to block visual
observation of the PIN-entry process. Examples include:
Visual shields designed into the check-in st and. The shields may be solely
for shielding purposes, or may be part of the general check stand design.
Position the PED so that it is angled in such a way that PIN spying is
difficult.
Install the PED on an adjustable stand that allows consumers to swivel the
terminal sideways and/or tilt it forwards/backwards to a position that makes visual observation of the PIN-entry process difficult.
Position in-store security cameras so that the PIN-entry keypad is not visible.

A swivel stand gives the cardholder freedom to position the V205c to optimize their viewing angle. If you are installing a swivel stand, you must include prompt s in your application directing the cardholder to position the V205c strategically to restrict the view of other customers.
Additionally, you may wish to implement the following to further increase security during PIN entry.
Offer PIN security literature at the point of sale
Use signage to limit the view of the V205c to just that of the cardholder.
Carefully inspect the shipping carton and its contents for possible tampering or damage.
1 Remove the V205c unit from the shipping carton. The standard package
contains the PIN pad, power pack, telephone cable, and printer paper roll. Refer to Accessories and Documentation for more information on related accessories.

Loading Printer Paper

Loading Printer
Paper
Before you can process transactions that require a receipt or record, you must install paper in the printer.
The V205c uses a roll of 57 mm wide x 40 mm, single-ply, thermal sensitive paper . A pink out-of-paper indicator line appears on the edge of the p aper before the end
of the roll. After this line appears, there is enough paper remaining on the roll to conclude at least one more transaction.
Poor-quality paper can jam the printer and create excessive paper dust. Store thermal paper in a dry, dark area. Handle thermal paper carefully: impact, friction, temperature, humidity, and oils affect the color and storage characteristics of the paper. Never load a roll of paper with folds, wrinkles, tears, or holes at the edges.
1 Unlock the paper compartment by pulling up the latch and swinging the door
downwards.
