Passwords

The Secure Payment application's payment module allows you to assign passwords to protect the terminal from unauthorized use. All terminal passwords are 6 numeric (numbers only) characters in length to provide security without slowing down the overall time it takes to process a transaction.

The terminal has 3 types of user passwords:

• Administrator (Admin): Configured during initial terminal activation

• Merchant: Configured during initial terminal activation

• Operator: Configured when creating one or more terminal operators
