Overview:

The Ingenico iPP350 are customer-facing, countertop devices that support MSR (magnetic stripe), EMV (chip), and NFC (contactless) payments. Directly connected to Bolt via a wired Ethernet connection, the devices protect your transactions with a powerful combination of EMV technology and point-to-point encryption (P2PE), making each transaction secure and PCI compliant.

Setting up the Device:

What's in the Box?

• Ingenico terminal
• Ingenico multi-point mono connector cable
• Ingenico power supply

Connecting the Device

1. Once your equipment is unboxed, plug the power supply connector into the jack on the Multipoint Interface Cable.
2. Connect the Multipoint Interface Cable into the Multipoint Port on the back of the device.
3. Connect the other end of the Multipoint Interface Cable to an Ethernet port (router, modem, wall jack, etc.).
4. Plug the power supply adapter into an available power outlet.

Confirming Connectivity

1. Once power is supplied to the device, an initiation process begins.
2. Once the device has successfully established its IP Address, it will attempt to call the Bolt service.
3. If the connection is successful, the device displays Bolted
4. If the connection is unsuccessful, the device displays Unbolted. This means that the device has not successfully connected to the internet. We recommend testing several ports on the router/modem to see if you are able to connect the device to the internet and display Bolted. 
5. Once Bolted, the device is ready for use. The device may be left on indefinitely or may be disconnected from power as necessary.

Troubleshooting the Device:

Device Restarting Unexpectedly:

Customizing the Device:

Customizing Image/Logo

It is possible to customize the image displayed on the home screen of the Bolt EMV Reader. The image must adhere to some specific guidelines.

For the Ingenico iPP350, the requirements are:

• Maximum image size is 320px width, 240px height
• Maximum file size is 1 MB

Normally, this image would be your logo. You'll want to use an image editor of your choosing (Preview for Mac, Paint for Windows) and resize/crop the image to the appropriate size for your device.

Image resize instructions for Mac (http://osxdaily.com/2016/09/05/how-to-resize-photo-mac/) and Windows (https://www.digitalunite.com/guides/digital-photography/how-resize-photos).

Customizing Colors

It is possible to customize both the background color and text color on your Bolt EMV Reader.

To choose a color, navigate to https://www.google.com/search?q=hex+color+picker and use the tool to pick a color. Once you've found a color you like, locate the color code. The color code begins with a # and follows with 6 letters and numbers. Write down that code. 

For example, white is #FFFFFF and black is #000000.
