Examining Terminal Features
18 VX 520 REFERENCE GUIDE
• A magnetic card reader, built into the right side. The icon at the
right shows the proper swipe direction, with the stripe down and
facing inward, toward the keypad.
• The VeriFone logo blue indicator LED indicates power is ON.
• An internal thermal printer.
• A smart card reader, built into the front of the terminal. The
icon indicates the proper card position and insertion direction.
• Three SAM (security access module) compartments, built
into the side of the terminal. The VX 520 terminal contains MSAM cardholders
to support multiple stored-value card programs or other merchant card
requirements.
Connection Ports
Turn the terminal upside down and remove the rear cover to view the connection
ports. Notice that the ports are recessed. Different ports provide connections to a
communications line, optional peripheral devices, and the power supply.
