Use the following steps to troubleshoot failures.
Check the Magnetic Card Reader
• Perform a test transaction using one or more different mag netic stripe cards to
ensure the problem is not a defective card.
• Ensure that you are swiping cards properly. With the card reader, the black
magnetic stripe on the card should face down and inward, toward the keypad
and must be inserted from the top of the terminal.
• 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.
• If the manual transaction does not work, proceed to Check the Telephone
Line.
• Contact your VeriFone distributor or service provider.
