When you first receive your VX 600, you may need to install an MSAM card or you may need to replace old cards.
Observe standard precautions when handling electrostatically sensitive devices. Electrostatic discharges can damage this equipment. VeriFone recommends using a grounded anti-static wrist strap.
Not all applications require the use of an MSAM card.
1 Unplug any cables or chargers from the VX 600. Using your finger, push the
MSAM compartment door, located on the left side of the front panel, to eject the MSAM tray . A small hole can be found under the center of the MSAM do or . If needed, use a paper clip to pull the door out.

Battery Behavior (No Power Cable)

Battery Behavior
(No Power
Cable)
NOTE
V
When provided with external power , the VX 600 device charges its internal battery to 90%. No transactions are allowed while the VX 600 charges its battery, but the iPhone can be operated on its own battery power. When the VX 600 battery reaches 90% charge, the VX 600 provides pass-through power to the installed iPhone, and transactions can be executed using the iPhone and VX 600. At any time, you can override these defaults and enable pass-through power to the iPhone by pressing the Enter+3 key combination, but this causes the VX 600 to enter Sleep Mode.
When operating on battery alone, the VX 600 device cable allows for pass­through power to the iPhone as long as the VX 600 battery exceeds 80% charge.
• The VX 600 device operates on battery power or AC power. The battery
charger in the device is active whenever the power pack is connected. Both the batteries in the device as well as in the iPhone are charged by PC power or the external power pack.
• Lithium-ion polymer batteries are not affected by shallow chargin g. When the
device has no external power source or smart battery, the coin cell battery procides power to the security circuit.
• When the VX 600 device is in Hibernation Mode or whenever the iPhone
R
enters its own Hibernation Mode, all pass-through power is disabled.
