WARNING: ESD PRECAUTIONS If the enclosure is opened to access the PCB, we recommend careful handling of Electrostatic Sensitive Devices (ESDs) .

  • Page 5: Using This Guide

    It contains the information you need to physically install your VTAP100. Consult the VTAP Configuration Guide for more about custom configuration and maintenance features for any VTAP100, including how to update the firmware on your VTAP100-USB, when a new release is available.

    Of course, the data can only be read if your phone contains a mobile NFC pass, which has been issued in connection with the Merchant ID(s)/Collector ID(s) and key(s) that are known to the VTAP100. The unit comes with default values, so that you can test Default operation on factory settings before you begin customising any settings.

  • Page 7: Default Operation On Factory Settings

    These steps demonstrate that the hardware can detect and interact with an OriginPass mobile NFC pass, which is ready to work with the default configuration of your VTAP100. 1. Obtain an OriginPass from Dot Origin by visiting https://originpass.com/VTAP/ and add it to Google or Apple Wallet.
  • Page 8 VTAP MOBILE WALLET READERS This first time, you will need to connect the VTAP100 to your PC, using a USB cable. (If needed, you can adjust the configuration to make these changes remotely in future, see VTAP Application Notes.) Step 1: Upload key file(s) to your VTAP100 1.
  • Page 9 Put each parameter on a new line. Order of parameters does not matter to the VTAP100, but could help other people who need to edit the file. Start any comment lines in the config.txt file, that the VTAP100 should ignore, with a semicolon. Each parameter should only appear once - if it accidentally appears more than once then only the last instance will take effect.
  • Page 10 Note: If an ST#KeySlot parameter is omitted, or set to 0, then authentication will be omitted and decryption will not be performed. In this case, Google Smart Tap data will be received and sent on by the VTAP100, only if the pass does not require authentication by the terminal.

  • Page 11: Check Status In Boot.txt

    VTAP MOBILE WALLET READERS 2.3 Check status in BOOT.TXT If you navigate to the VTAP100 in the computer's file system. It will appear as an attached mass storage device and list the files contained, including the BOOT.TXT file. Inspecting BOOT.TXT will give you essential information about your VTAP100 set up, at time of last reboot, which might be helpful when troubleshooting.

  • Page 12: Choose A Location For Your Vtap100

    VTAP MOBILE WALLET READERS 3   Choose a location for your VTAP100 Position the VTAP100-USB so that users can easily tap their smartphone against the label, on top of the device. CAUTION: Never allow a metal surface between the VTAP100 and the user's phone or card.

    The size of the label recess on a compact case (-CC) is 41mm x 57mm with 2mm radius rounded corners as shown below. Figure 4-1 Dimensions of label recess in -CC compact case VTAP100-USB INSTALLATION GUIDE © DOT ORIGIN PAGE 9...

  • Page 14: Mount A Vtap100 Wallbox

    Figure 5-1 Mounting holes in the -CC compact case base plate The VTAP100 is rated at 5V DC (typ. 110mA, max 150mA) for power over USB. We recommend that you complete and test your configuration before the VTAP100 is mounted.

  • Page 15: Hardware Lock To Disable Usb Mass Storage Device

    A software lock prevents changes but leaves some files visible. A hardware lock means that the VTAP100 will no longer be detected as a USB mass storage device. (It will still behave as an HID keyboard device and, if enabled, the virtual COM port will behave as a composite USB device consisting of HID keyboard and USB virtual COM port.)

  • Page 16: Disposal
