If the password is entered correctly, the System Mode idle screen displays. If
the password is not entered correctly, the error "password was entered
incorrectly" displays and the login screen will be displayed again.
Figure 6 System Mode
After successful completion, some operations automatically exit System mode
and restart the device. Other operations require that you manually exit System
mode and restart the device by tapping or selecting Log Out or Reboot from the
Exit submenu.
Handle passwords as you would PC passwords.
Without the password, you are unable to access System mode operations and
may be prevented from requesting a download, performing remote diagnostics,
or changing any of the information already stored in memory. The unit can,
however, continue to process transactions in normal mode.
If you change a password but forgot it later on, the user may opt to expire the
user passwords. Expiring user passwords clears out ALL user passwords at the
same time. Consider advising all users before proceeding with this option.
To expire user passwords, access the System mode Security > Password
manager option or contact your local Verifone representative for assistance.
Passwords must be in numeric characters only and must be at least seven digits
and less than 10 digits in length.
To prevent unauthorized use of the System mode menus, the unit OS requires a
system password each time you enter System mode.
