This chapter presents the basics on the V240m terminal and base.
V240m Terminal
V
O
C
The V240m is a consumer-facing handheld device. The product’s design is
equally appealing as a handheld PINpad and robust enough to look and function
appropriately in a fixed mount setting.
The V240m can utilize over-the-air connectivity, facilitating mobile telephony
technology for sending and receiving data, using existing operator-provided 2G or
3G infrastructure:
• V240m - provides second-generation (2G) Global System for Mobile
Communications (GSM) connectivity.

Use the following guidelines to select the best location for the V240m device.
To Select a Location
Environmental
Factors
Choose a location convenient for both merchant and client:
• Far from heavy metal objects,
• A flat support surface such as a countertop or a table,
• Near a power outlet and the terminal or computer that connects to the V240m.
For safety, do not string cables or cords across a walkway.
• Do not use the unit where there is high heat, dust, humidity, moisture, or
caustic chemicals or oils.
• Keep the unit away from direct sunlight and anything that radiates heat, such
as a stove or a motor.

CAUTION
PIN Protection Measures
• Do not use the V240m outdoors.
The V240m 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
V
O
• Avoid using this product during electrical storms.
• Do not use the V240m 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).
O
N
F
Avoid having metallic objects in proximity of the contactless antenna. If you need
R
to mount the terminal to vertical or inclined surfaces, use a flat, non-metallic
mounting plate.

performance.
PIN Protection
C
Measures
The V240m and V240m Plus are handover devices. Always exercise extreme
caution when conducting transactions, especially during PIN entry:
• Hand the terminal directly to the cardholder for PIN entry.
• Encourage the cardholder to hold the terminal close to avoid others from
seeing the information being entered.
Verifone also recommends instructing the cardholder regarding safe PIN-entry.
This can be done with a combination of:
• Signage on the PED
• Prompts on the display, possibly with a click-through screen
• Literature at the point of sale
• A logo for safe PIN-entry process.

1 Remove the V240m unit from the shipping carton. The standard package
contains the PIN pad, power pack, battery, and printer paper roll. Refer
Accessories and Documentation to for more information about V240m related
accessories.
This device is a secure product and any tampering can cause it to cease to
function or operate in an unsecured manner.
2 Remove any protective plastic wrap and place the unit on a table or
countertop.
3 Remove the clear protective film from the display.
4 Replace all the packing materials, close the lid, and save the carton for
repacking or moving the V240m unit or base in the future.

Before processing transactions in battery mode, make sure you have more than
10% battery life. Do not risk losing transaction data or printing capabilities,
connect the terminal to the power pack if battery level is below 10%.
Not all configurations and device contexts require the use of a power supply –
Verifone ships power supply with the terminal as required.
Contact your Verifone representative If you have changed the context in which the
terminal is used or have questions about which power supply should be used.
Using an incorrectly rated power supply can damage the unit or cause it not to
work properly. Use only a power pack with VPN PWR
and Support for detailed power supply specifications).

CTLS payment mode is defined as the state of the device where RF transmission
is broadcasting to allow for a CTLS payment. This is activated either during the
scanning of items or at the completion of scanning items during the checkout

performing the outlined guidelines, or if the problem is not described, contact your
local Verifone representative for assistance.
The V240m device uses a tamper-evident case and contains no user-serviceable
parts. Do not, under any circumstance, attempt to disassemble the unit. Perform
only those adjustments or repairs specified in this guide. For all other services,
contact your local Verifone service provider. Service conducted by parties other
than authorized Verifone representatives may void any warranty.

2 If the problem persists, contact your local Verifone representative.
There are several possible reasons why the unit may not be processing
transactions. Use the following steps to troubleshoot failures.
Check Magnetic Card Reader
• Perform a test transaction using one or more different magnetic stripe cards to
ensure the problem is not a defective card.
• Ensure that you are swiping cards properly (see Magnetic Stripe Card Reader
Use).
• Process a transaction manually using the keypad instead of the card reader. If
the manual transaction works, the problem may be a defective card reader.
