VEGA 3000 C/M/P Full Guide

While the terminal is waiting for a transaction,
it is in the “Idle state”. The Idle state is shown
in the figure on the previous page. In the up-
per part, the screen displays the Status bar
indicating the current status of the terminal
(network connection, battery etc.), and the
signal level. Some icons are not applicable
for the particular type of terminal and con-
figuration (for example battery status is not
shown on Vega 3000 C terminal, LAN status
for Vega 3000 M etc).
Differences in acceptance of chip
and magnetic cards
Chip or Contactless Card
If the card is equipped with a contact or
contactless chip the use of the chip takes
precedence over the magnetic strip. If an
attempt is made to execute a transaction
primarily by magnetic strip, the terminal will
not allow the transaction.
Contactless cards are are tapped against the
screen (above the contactless transactions
logo). The chip card is inserted into the card
reader with the chip facing up so that the
magnetic strip on the right side is facing
down. A card reader is located in the lower
part of the terminal.
After correctly entering the PIN the terminal
communicates with the bank network. In
case of positive outcome a receipt is printed
out, otherwise, the reason for rejecting the
transaction is printed out.
If the signature is required, the receipt
contains space for signature and has to be
signed by the cardholder.
Magnetic card
The card is read by sliding the card through
a magnetic track reader located on the right-
hand side of the terminal. The card can be
read in both directions.
The user shall inspect the security features
of the card, perform a visual inspection of
the card number and compare the signature
on the receipt with the signature on the card.
In case of suspicion a request for additional
proof of identity is made.
In general magnetic cards have been almost
replaced by chip cards, which offer higher
security and protection for both cardholder
and merchant.
