IBMEFT Troubleshooting
This section describes how to resolve error messages that may appear on your Ingenico
6780 device display if using IBMEFTDL.

Card Read Error

13.1
If the Card Read Error message displays on the device after swiping a card through the
MSR:
Try swiping the card a few more times, varying the speed at which the card is
physically drawn through the reader.
Try swiping the card in the reverse direction (i.e., if swiping the card from top to
bottom, try swiping the card from bottom to top, front to back: back to front).
Make sure that you are swiping the card in a straight line (i.e., make sure the MSR
card is always touching the bottom of the MSR track).
If none of these actions work, then the MSR card is worn and cannot be read
electronically. Enter the card number manually.
If the register is reloaded immediately after powering up, the Ingenico 6780 may
not come up in the correct state. Signing in at the register and seeing if the
Ingenico 6780 display reads "Please Slide Card" can determine this. If it does not
(i.e., display continues to read, "Closed"), then perform the same steps as for the
next error message,

EFT Device Not Available

your application software.
2. On the register, press the
problem persists, continue to step 3.
3. To restart the Ingenico 6780 device, press Cancel + 0 + Enter simultaneously.

displays.
