It is highly recommended that the computer be connected with an ethernet cable to your network<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 1) Prepare your computer to communicate with the terminal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Before you will be able to communicate securely with your PAX payment device, you must install the device security certificate on each computer\/tablet\/phone where you will be processing payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Installing the security certificate is a quick process that should only take a minute or so to perform, depending on your operating system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2) Set the Date and Time on your PAX D210<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 3) Set up Wi-Fi Connection<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 4) Change the LAN type on the device to “DHCP”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n When your device is shipped, it comes pre-loaded with the “Static IP” LAN type, and a default IP of 000.000.000.000. This needs to be changed to “DHCP,” so your router can assign an IP to the device. Follow the instructions in this article to change it from “Static IP” to “DHCP.” Be sure to have the PAX connected to your WiFi connection and power cycle your device after making this change for it to take effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 5) Register your PAX Payment Terminal Device in RepairQ<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n For step by step instructions on how to register your PAX Payment Terminal Device in RepairQ, click on an article below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Register Bluefin PAX Payment Terminal Device<\/p>\n\n\n\n 6) OPTIONAL: Change the LAN type on the device BACK to “Static IP”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Depending on your local network, you may need to set your PAX device to use either Static LAN Mode or DHCP LAN mode. We strongly recommend you use Static IP mode<\/strong> on your PAX device to prevent the IP address from changing unexpectedly and interrupting your payment processing. If your router assigns a new IP address to each device daily, weekly, monthly, etc., you will need to assign a static IP to the PAX.<\/p>\n\n\n\n How To: Change the LAN type on the PAX D210<\/p>\n\n\n\n Processing Payments on the PAX Payment Device<\/p>\n\n\n\n For a walkthrough on processing payments with the PAX device, see How to: Process a payment on the PAX S300\/D210 Device<\/p>\n\n\n\n Troubleshooting<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If when trying to run a test transaction, you receive an error message:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Default settings for the Bluefin PAX S300\/D210:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Ref: https:\/\/repairq.zendesk.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/360013969274-How-to-Configure-the-PAX-D210-Payment-Terminal-Device<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The PAX D210 device has the ability to read EMV chip cards, NFC, magnetic strips, and it has a keypad for keyed entry.
