Using the VP5300 to Make a Contactless Purchase
8.1.
Presenting Proximity Cards or NFC Phones
The VP5300 allows for credit/debit card purchases using Contactless technology when the optional
NFC antenna is installed.
Present the card or phone in close proximity to the front portion of the antenna module. Present the
card or phone so that maximum surface area is parallel to the antenna module as shown below. The
antenna should beep and all four green LEDs should illuminate briefly to indicate a successful test.
This tests the antenna's ability to read the Contactless test card. An unsuccessful test produces no
reaction from the reader. If you use a test card and the antenna is attached to the VP5300, a dummy
transaction can be tested. The transaction will not be authorized and return a response, but will at
least test for end-to-end connectivity.
