      Supplied components:
      • P400 Plus Payment Terminal
      • Power supply
      • Accessories depending on the connection type, for example an Ethernet dongle
      • Privacy shield

    These are the steps to get your new P400 Plus Payment Terminal up and running and that will be explained in further detail later.

    1. Inspect the terminal.
      1. Open the cover on the back of the terminal, connect the dongle cable, and close the cover.
      2. Tighten the cam lock screw on the back cover (if present), to help prevent damage to the cable connector caused by pulling the cable
    2. Turn on the terminal by connecting it to a power source. During startup, the display turns on and off a few times.
      1. Check out “Admin Menu” and “Device Info”.
    3. Connect P400 Plus to your network.
      1. Turn off / Reboot the terminal.

    1. Inspect the terminal

    Since payment terminals process sensitive card data, it is crucial to verify that the terminal you received is the correct one and has not been tampered with.

    1. Verify the box containing the terminal:
      1. It hasn't been opened.
      2. The security seal, a red label with a bar code and a number, is still intact and affixed across the lid of the box.
    2. Break the security seal, take the terminal out of the box, and check if the serial number (S/N) on the terminal matches the serial number on the box.
    3. Inspect the terminal for tampering. Check for missing seals or screws, additional wires or labels, holes in the device, and anything inserted in or attached to any part of the terminal.

      If any of the above checks fail, please contact our DISH Support Team immediately.

       

    2. Turn on

    If you turn on the payment terminal for the first time or after it was off for a long time, it may make a maintenance call to synchronise the configuration and update the software. This can take 10 to 20 minutes.

    1. Turn on the terminals
      Connect the terminal to a power supply. During startup, the display turns on and off a few times.
    2. Admin menu
      Check out “Admin menu”: you'll need the Admin menu on the terminal for various tasks.
