Can Another Customer View the PIN?

 

While one person stands at the ViVOpay PISCES with their hand positioned to enter the PIN, the 
other tester should try to observe the keypad from behind and beside the first person. 

 

Can the Cashier View the PIN?

 

While one person stands at the ViVOpay  PISCES with their hand positioned to enter the PIN, the 
other tester should stand behind the counter and try to observe the PIN keypad. The second tester 
should move around a little to see if there is a position where they can observe PIN entry. 

 

Can the Video Camera View the PIN?

 

While one person stands at the ViVOpay PISCES with their hand positioned to enter the PIN, the 
other tester should observe what is being recorded by any video camera with a view of the ViVOpay 
PISCES. This may require playing back a recording to see if PIN entry is visible. If the video 
camera is moveable, the second person should move the video camera to determine if there is a 
position where PIN entry can be observed. 

 

Retesting Requirements

 

If PIN entry on the ViVOpay PISCES is observable in any of the above tests, you must reposition 
the ViVOpay PISCES and completely retest all locations to verify that PIN entry is not visible. 
Consider placing a display to block observation from that position. 

Repositioning the ViVOpay PISCES to block observance of PIN entry at one location may expose 
PIN entry to observation at another location. PCI requires that you reposition the ViVOpay 
PISCES and retest until PIN entry is secure from observation. 

 

Radio Frequency Interference

 

 

To perform contactless transactions, the ViVOpay  PISCES  uses  a radio frequency antenna. The 
range (reading distance) and performance of the reader can be affected by other radio frequency 
emitters and proximity to metal. 

For best performance, adhere to the following guidelines: 

 

•  Do not position the ViVOpay PISCES closer than 1 foot (30 cm) to other 

RF-emitting devices. Some environments may require greater distances. 

 

•  Avoid placing the ViVOpay PISCES on or near large metal objects. 

 

•  Do not position the ViVOpay PISCES near radio transmitters.
