If you see a timer of about 2 minutes at the same time every day and your Pay Terminal Plus restarts afterward, you are witnessing an automatic "Security Check." The good news is that you can easily change the timing to a less disruptive time!


Let's go

Here's how to change the restart time

Manually restart your Pay Terminal Plus at a more convenient time for you. Since the check happens every 24 hours, this will shift all subsequent security checks to this new time!

  1. Press and hold the on/off switch on the right-hand side of the Pay Terminal Plus until a menu appears.
  2. Select "Restart" and confirm by tapping "Restart" again.
    Done

Any questions?

Why is there a restart for security reasons?

The secure boot mechanism ensures that the terminal only runs authorized software. This feature helps prevent unauthorized access to the device and reduces the risk of malware or other malicious software being installed.
