The V240m has a magnetic card reader that uses a triple track stripe reader. This
gives the unit greater reliability over a wide range of swipe speeds and operating
environments.
Figure 16 Using the Magnetic Stripe Card Reader
To conduct a credit or debit card transaction:
1
Position a magnetic card with the stripe facing the keypad.
2
Swipe it through the magnetic card reader.
The V240m supports contactless transactions through an integrated contactless
module. The terminal only becomes active for contactless smart card transactions
when initialized by an application.
Figure 17 Contactless Transaction
To perform a contactless smart card transaction:
1
Gently tap the card onto or hold the card (within 4 cm) against the surface of
the display where the contactless logo appears.
2
An activated LED visual on the display accompanied by a short beeping sound
indicates a successful transaction.
