Installation
Installing DynaFlex products is straightforward: The manufacturer or acquirer configures the preferred
settings, keys, and terminal and payment brand settings before deployment; end users need only set up a
host with appropriate software, configure the software, and connect the device to the host. This section
provides general information about inspecting, connecting, and installing DynaFlex or DynaFlex Pro.

About Inspection
Before unpacking the device, it is important to inspect its secure packaging to make sure it has not been
tampered with in storage or in transit. MagTek provides details for inspecting the integrity of the device’s
secure packaging in

.
It is also important to regularly and thoroughly inspect a new device before deployment, and a device in
live usage (including its immediate surroundings) to make sure malicious individuals have not tampered
with it. MagTek recommends conducting inspection training for all device operators, and an inspection
schedule with checkpoints in place to make sure operators are performing inspections as specified and as
scheduled. MagTek provides an easy-to-follow device inspection reference in

About Host Software
In any solution, DynaFlex or DynaFlex Pro is connected to a host, which must have software installed
that knows how to communicate with the device, and which is capable of processing transactions. To set
up the host to work with DynaFlex or DynaFlex Pro, follow the installation and configuration instructions
provided by the vendor of the host or the host software. For information about developing custom host
software, see section
