Moneris Vx810 Duet Operating Manual v1.1.01 47
Recommendations: Always plug the power cable into the power source last to avoid power surges. Use a
power bar with surge protection where possible.
IMPORTANT: You must use the exact power adaptor and cables provided by Moneris Solutions to
work with the Moneris Vx810 terminal and PINPad. Failure to do so may affect the operability of
or cause damage to the equipment.
5. While the terminal and PINPad are powering up, wait until you see “WELCOME/BONJOUR” on the
PINPad and “No AIDs Found” on the terminal.
6. Press OK on the PINPad and wait for the applications menu to appear (DEBIT & CREDIT, GIFT &
LOYALTY).
3.9.2. Transactions With the PINPad

2. When "Swipe Card:" appears on the terminal, pass the PINPad to the customer for card entry (see
Procedures
).
3. When "Wait for PINPad" appears on the terminal, the customer follows the prompts on the PINPad.
4. When "Approved OK to Continue" appears on the terminal, retrieve the PINPad, press OK on the

3.10. The Modular Contactless Reader
If an optional modular contactless reader is connected to the
Vx810 Duet terminal and your merchant account is configured
for it, you can process contactless transactions. In a contactless
transaction, the customer taps a contactless card on the
contactless reader instead of swiping or inserting it.
Note: If an optional external PINPad is connected to the
Vx810 Duet, the contactless reader is connected to the PINpad
instead of to the terminal.
3.10.1. Contactless Transactions Allowed
Contactless cards can be tapped on a contactless reader for
credit Purchases and Refunds only if the amount is at or below
the maximum Contactless Dollar Value (CDV).
3.10.2. Maximum Contactless Dollar Value (CDV)
To determine the maximum CDV for a card, print the EMV Parameters Report and locate the
Contactless Trans Limit parameter under the report's record for the card. A CDV of 9999 means there is
no maximum limit.
