4. The SETTINGS screen will be displayed.
NOTE: The default password after a new installation is 1234.
NOTE: Before configuring the IP address or URL, it is strongly recommended to start the STPI Client on the PC where it was installed, and make sure it is running properly. This will allow you to test the communication using the FIND STPI links found with some settings.
IP / URL toggle switch
By default, the toggle switch is set to IP, and the field is labeled STPI IP Address. By touching the toggle switch, the field will change to STPI URL Address.
• The IP option is used to locate the STPISecure Client using an IP address, such as 192.168.xxx.xxx.
• The URL option is used to locate the STPISecure Client using a Uniform Rersource Locator (URL), such as https://payfacto.com/.
Enter the IP address or URL of the PC or resource where the STPI Client is installed and running, when accessing it through the local WiFi network.
Find STPI
After entering the IP address or URL, touch this link to verify the communication between your payment terminal and the STPI Client.
Redundant Network
Enable this option to allow the SecureTable application to communicate over both WiFi and 4G/LTE mobile networks. By default, SecureTable will always try to use WiFi networks first, to avoid extra costs from using data over mobile networks. If the terminal is out of range of any known WiFi networks, SecureTable will automatically switch to 4G/LTE mobile network. Enabling this option will also unlock additional settings.
NOTE: A SIM card needs to be installed in the payment terminal to get access to 4G/LTE mobile networks. Also, this option will be hidden if no SIM card is detected.
Auto-connect to LTE
** This settings is only visible if Redundant Network is also enabled. With this option enabled, SecureTable will offer the option to automatically switch from WiFi to 4G/LTE if unable to reach the POS system during a transaction. This switch will only happen if the application is actively trying to connect to the POS system. It will not happen while the application is idle. If this option is disabled and there is a WiFi communication issue during a transaction, you will get a generic error message and you will need to manually switch to 4G/LTE and re-attempt the transaction.
STPI IP/URL Address for LTE
** This settings is only visible if Redundant Network is also enabled. Enter the Public IP address or URL to access the STPI Client is installed and running, when accessing it through the 4G/LTE mobile network.
Find STPI
After entering the IP address or URL, touch this link to verify the communication between your payment terminal and the STPI Client.
NOTE: The STPI Client needs to be up-and-running. If you are using FIND STPI for 4G/LTE, Port Forwarding also needs to be configured on the router/firewall controlling the access to the local area network.
STPI Port Number
This field displays the current TCP port number used for communication with the STPI Client.
NOTE: This setting can only be modified from the Advanced Settings screen and is displayed here for information purposes only.
Advanced Settings
Touch this link to access the Advanced Settings screen.
Functions Menu
Touch this link to access the Functions Menu screen.
SAVE
Touch this button to save your changes and return to the home screen.
NOTE: On a brand-new installation, the application will not let you save your settings with an empty (blank) STPI Port Number. To prevent this issue, go to the Advanced Settings screen, configure the STPI Port Number, Save, and then go back to the basic settings screen to set the IP address or URL.
STPI Port Number
Default: 9999 This is the TCP port number used by STPI. Be sure that this TCP port is unblocked by your network administrator.
POS Type
• Select 1 for Maitre’D, Veloce or any POS other than Micros or Squirrel.
• Select 2 for Micros.
• Select 3 for Squirrel.
Tip
Enable this option to have the SecureTable application prompt for tip entry. Disable this option to prevent tip entry. Disabling this option will also hide all the tip-related options below.
Tip Preset (Select percentages)
Configure preset tip percentages that the customer will see when prompted for tip. Up to 3 presets can be configured. If you do not wish to use all of them, presets that are set to 0% will not be displayed to the customer.
Tip Preset Text Size
Select the text size used to display preset tip percentages. Available choices are Normal, Medium and Large.
Tip Threshold
Enter the maximum allowed tip percentage. Any tip amount that exceeds this percentage will require the settings password to be entered. Setting the percentage to 0% disables the tip threshold validation.
Tip on Tax
Enable this option to calculate the tip percentage from the total check amount, including taxes. If this option is disabled, the tip amount will be calculated on the sub-total instead, which does not include taxes.
NOTE: For the Tip on Tax feature to have an effect, the POS system needs to send both the sub-total and check total as separate values to the STPIClient. If the POS system only sends the check total without the sub-total, this setting will have no effect. The percentage will be calculated on the check total sent by the POS, regardless of the status of this option.
Enable Confirmation
Enable this option to present a dedicated tip confirmation screen for the customer. If this option is disabled, the tip confirmation screen will be skipped when selecting a tip preset or the NO TIP option. If using custom $ or custom % with this option disabled, the tip amount, percentages and resulting totals will be updated in real-time as the customer types the numbers in, but no additional confirmation screen will be presented before the actual payment.
Setting Password
Configure the password used to access settings. This is also the password that will be requested if the customer enters a tip amount that exceeds the Tip Threshold.
Enable Search by Table Number
Enable this option to have the terminal prompt the server for a table number. This allows the SecureTable application to search for all available checks for a given table number.
Enable Search by Check Number

After the STPISecure client is installed, configured and running properly on the POS system, make sure that all payment terminals are properly configured so they can communicate with the POS system. Android payment terminals are generally shipped with all the necessary applications pre-installed by PayFacto, including the latest versions of SecureTable and of the latest version of the Payment application. If the SecureTable application appears to be missing, install it using the instructions below.
The instructions below were created using the PAX A920 Android-based Payment terminal and the PAX store. However, the instructions are the same for all Android-based payment terminals, such as other models offered by PAX, AMP terminals or Clover Flex. For brands other than PAX, the mechanism they use to install apps may look different but the general principle should remain the same.
Before installing SecureTable on your payment terminal, please make sure that the appropriate payment application is installed and configured properly. You may also want to check out our
documentation on the PAX A920, A920Pro or A80 terminals or any other Android-based terminal you may be using with SecureTable.
