Performing System Mode Operations

The System Password 29

When you key in the correct password, the terminal enters System

Mode and the System Prompt is displayed. The System Prompt

consists of two parts: the word

SYSTEM=

and the terminal’s

firmware version ID, in

VPQXXYYZ

format. (For more information

about the System Prompt, see the section entitled “The System

Prompt” below.)

In System Mode, you can the select a procedure to change the default

password to a unique and more secure password. When you set a new

System Password, be sure to keep a copy of the new password in a

secure place.

A valid System Password may consist of from one to ten

alphanumeric characters. You can change the system password at any

time, provided you know what the current password is.

When you key in the System Password to enter System Mode, an

asterisk (*) appears on the display for each character you type,

obscuring the password you are entering from general view.

However, when you press the [ALPHA] key as part of a System

Password, no asterisk is displayed.

Note: Some application program downloads automatically reset the

System Password.

Caution: If you change the System Password and then forget it, there

is no method to determine what the forgotten password is. Losing or

forgetting the password will block access to System Mode functions

and prevent you from requesting a download, performing remote

diagnostics, or changing any of the information already stored in

memory. The terminal can, however, continue to process transactions

in Normal Mode. If you forget or lose the password to your terminal,

please contact your local VeriFone representative for assistance.
