P17 PIN pad – Supported Configurations

The P17 PIN pad is a versatile payment device designed to support various integration modes depending on the merchant’s setup. Below are the supported configurations:

1. Standalone Mode

• Operates independently without needing to be paired with another terminal or system.

• Suitable for quick-service or mobile setups where the PIN pad handles transactions directly.

2. CloudPOS Integration

• Functions as a customer-facing PIN pad during CloudPOS transactions.

• Allows customers to securely view totals, enter tips, and complete payments via card or tap.

3. SPIn Integration with a Supported Cash Register

• Integrates with certified cash register software via SPIn (Secure Payment Interface).

• The PIN pad is triggered directly by the register, enabling seamless point-of-sale coordination and payment processing.

4. Paired with a P1 Master Terminal (USB)

• Connected to a P1 terminal via USB cable.

• The P1 acts as the master device, providing power and communication.

• This configuration is exclusive to the P1 model due to hardware compatibility.

5. Paired Wirelessly with Any iPOSpays-Compatible Terminal

• Communicates over a shared Wi-Fi network.

• Suitable for merchants who prefer a cable-free setup.

• Can be paired with a wide range of iPOSpays-supported smart terminals beyond the P1.

Plugging in the Terminals

Step 1: Plug the P1 charger into a wall socket.

This will charge the P1 terminal while also allowing it to act as a power supply to the P17 terminal.

Step 2: Connecting the P17 PIN pad

• The P17 terminal will automatically power on when plugged in.

Pairing the two Terminals

Pairing Methods

There are two methods to pair the terminals, depending on your preference:

• Through Wi-Fi: Transaction data is exchanged wirelessly between the terminals over a shared Wi-Fi network.

How to Pair Through USB

• Connect P1 to Network

Connect the P1 master terminal to a network to perform a parameter update for a TPN that has PINpad mode enabled.
