substitution
4.3.5 Attaching your Genius device to the stand
1.
Align the mounting holes on the bottom of the device with the pins on the stand.
2.
Press the terminal firmly onto the stand and slide it down until you hear a click.
3.
Use the Allen wrench to secure the terminal to the stand with the set screw.
4.3.6 Genius Handheld devices
You must ensure that when your Genius Handheld devices are in use, they are kept under the
supervision of authorized employees. Whenever possible, your authorized employees should
remain in possession of the device. If a cardholder needs to directly interact with the device, we
recommend your authorized employees do the following:
•
Remain with the cardholder during the interaction
•
Keep the device in their sight
•
Visually inspect the device after a cardholder interaction, they should ensure the cardholder
has not:
‒
Opened the device
‒
Interfered with the card readers
‒
Substituted the device for another
As Genius Handheld devices do not have any physical fasteners, you should have a lockable area
where authorized employees store the devices when not in use. Authorized employees should
sign out devices when they need them and sign in devices when returning them for storage. The
lockable area should be in view of a camera system to ensure any unauthorized access to the
devices is captured.
You should also enforce operational security processes to make sure that members of staff or
security regularly inspect the device.
