M NSTALLATION
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 19 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.
