AMS1 user manual

Get started

These are the steps to get your new AMS1 payment terminal up and running. Some steps include a link to more detailed instructions.

1. Inspect the terminal.

2. Turn on the terminal: connect the terminal to a power supply, then press and hold the power button until the display turns on.
   Let the battery charge for at least four hours while you continue with the next steps.

3. On the Welcome screen, select your language.

4. Connect the terminal to your network.

5. On the Confirm store screen, assign the terminal to your store by selecting the check mark button. If the store shown is not your store, use the edit button to change it.

   If the store screen doesn't show, wait until the next synchronization with the Adyen platform (on average three hours) and try again.

When you have completed these steps, you are ready to process payments!

Inspect the terminal

Como os terminais processam dados confidenciais do cartão, é importante garantir que o terminal que você recebeu seja o terminal Adyen correto e que não tenha sido adulterado. Se alguma das seguintes verificações falhar, entre em contato com nossa Support Team imediatamente.

1. Verifique se a caixa que contém o terminal não foi aberta e se o selo de segurança está intacto.
   O selo de segurança é uma etiqueta vermelha com um código de barras e um número, colada na tampa da caixa.

2. Se você tiver acesso à Customer Area da Adyen, faça o login e, em Point of sale, localize o pedido do seu terminal. Então:

   • Verifique se o terminal serial number (S/N) na caixa é igual ao da área do cliente.
   • Verifique se o security seal number na caixa é igual ao da área do cliente.

   • Usando as informações de track & trace na área do cliente, acompanhe o pedido com a transportadora para verificar se eles confirmam a entrega do terminal de pagamento.

3. Quebre o selo de segurança, retire o terminal da caixa e verifique se o terminal serial number (S/N) no próprio terminal é o mesmo que o número de série na caixa.

4. Inspecione o terminal quanto a adulteração. Verifique se faltam vedações ou parafusos, fios ou etiquetas adicionais, orifícios no dispositivo e qualquer coisa inserida ou conectada a qualquer parte do terminal, como o leitor de cartões ou as portas.

Connect to your network

Connect your terminal to the internet so that it can communicate with the plataforma de pagamentos da Adyen and your own back-end systems.

Connect to Wi-Fi

1. After selecting your language on the Welcome screen, select the arrow button:
   
2. On the Setup Wi-Fi screen, select the + sign.
3. Turn on the WLAN toggle switch.
4. Select a Wi-Fi network from the list, or select the + sign and add the name (SSID) of the Wi-Fi network.
5. Enter the Wi-Fi password.
6. Select OK.
   The terminal sets the network as default automatically, and connects to it.
   You'll now see a Wi-Fi icon at the top of the display.

Updating the connection settings

If you need to change Wi-Fi usage later:

1. Select Settings > Network.
2. Enter your passcode.
3. Select Wi-Fi. You can now:
   • Turn Wi-Fi on or off using the WLAN toggle switch.
   • Add another network as described above.

Cellular 3G/4G failover

Your AMS1 terminal can automatically switch to processing payments using a cellular connection when the internet connection fails. Adyen terminals come with a pre-installed and activated SIM (eSIM) card, so you can use the cellular network immediately to board the terminal.
However, terminals boarded before 2022 might not have the SIM card activated if you did not set up the card subscription with us at the time.
When in doubt, contact our Support Team.

Turn on/off

If you turn on the payment terminal for the first time or after it was off for a long time, it may make a maintenance call to synchronize the configuration and update the software. This can take 10 to 20 minutes.

When connected to a power supply, the battery charges. An icon at the top of the display indicates the battery charge level.

Turn on the terminal:

• Press and hold the power button until the display turns on. If necessary, connect the terminal to a power supply to charge the battery.
  

Turn off the terminal:

• Press and hold the power button until a dialog box appears, then confirm you want to turn off the terminal.

Maintain battery performance

Storing payment terminals for longer periods of time can reduce the capacity of the battery or damage it permanently.

To prevent battery degradation:

1. Check the storage conditions:

   • Store the terminals in a cool, dry place.
   • Keep the terminals away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
   • Avoid overcharging - do not store terminals with battery levels over 70 percent.
   • Avoid discharging - do not store terminals with battery levels below 40 percent.

2. Inspect the batteries regularly:

   • Every six months, check for battery leakage or swelling.
   • Recharge batteries to the optimal level.

In case of battery failure, you can return or replace the terminal. For certain models, you can order spare batteries.

For more information, refer to Manage battery power.

Use the USB-C charging cable

The AMS1 payment terminal is supplied with a USB-C charging cable and a region-specific power plug. This cable is compliant with the USB industry and UL standards.

To prevent damage to the USB-C charging cable and the USB-C socket on the payment terminal, follow these guidelines:

• Insert and remove the USB-C charging cable by holding the end that connects to the terminal or the power plug.
• Do not insert or remove the USB-C charging cable in an upward, downward, left, or right direction.
• Do not bend or fold the USB-C charging cable.
• Do not use excessive force to insert or remove the USB-C charging cable.
• Always inspect the USB-C charging cable and the USB-C socket on the payment terminal for foreign objects.
• If the terminal operates in areas of high humidity, dust, or food residue, consider getting a charging station.

Payment terminal menus

Your payment terminals have a menu with options related to payments, and a menu with options related to configuration. The access to some menu options is protected by passcodes.

View and reset totals

The terminal can generate a Totals report. This gives an overview of the total amounts for sales, refunds, gratuities (tips), and cancellations that the terminal processed since the last reset of the report. By resetting the report, you can use this functionality to get day totals or shift totals.

Resetting automatically

To automatically reset the Totals every day at a specific hour, contact our Support Team.

Airplane mode

For the airline industry the payment terminal has an airplane mode. When preparing for take-off, turning on airplane mode is the quickest way to turn off all cellular and other network connections on the terminal.

When you turn airplane mode off again, the previous connections are restored.

Enable airplane mode

To be able to use airplane mode, contact our Support Team and ask them to enable this feature. The Network menu on the terminal will then include an Airplane mode option.

Use airplane mode

To turn on airplane mode:

1. On the terminal, select Settings > Network.
2. Enter the passcode.
3. In the Network menu, turn on the Airplane mode toggle.
   All connections (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Cellular) are now Off.

To turn off airplane mode:

1. On the terminal, select Settings > Network.
2. Enter the passcode.
3. In the Network menu, turn off the Airplane mode toggle.
   All previous connections (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Cellular) are now restored.

Kiosk mode

The kiosk mode is intended for payment terminals in unattended environments, such as next to a vending machine, token dispenser, or parking payment systems. It allows the use of the payment terminals without the risk of customers powering off the terminal or entering the settings of special payment menus.

To configure the kiosk mode, contact our Support Team. Ask them to enable one or all of the following features:

• Set a different default app. Customers can only interact with an Android app that you uploaded on the payment terminal.
• Hide the navigation buttons. Customers cannot use the Android buttons at the bottom of the screen to change or minimize the default app.
• Hide the menu buttons. The Settings and Transactions menu buttons do not show on the home screen.
