CHAPTER 1Equipment InformationThis chapter provides an overview of the Hypercom SmartICE terminal. Included are the features and benefits of the devise.Terminal InformationThe Hypercom SmartICE terminal is a fully functional terminal that supports draft capture, check verification and guarantee, authorization, and debit.When communication with the host is interrupted, the terminals support offline transaction capture. These transactions are then communicated to the host before settlement each day.At settlement time, all terminal totals are matched with host totals. In the rare instance ofnon-matching totals, automatic batch uploading allows accurate matching of terminal and host transaction details, and provides rapid automated arbitration and balancing.Settlement functions are either password protected for manual activation or are handled automatically at a time pre-set to meet merchant needs.The SmartICE terminal provides application-level statistical and diagnostic information to the host at the end of each settlement period. This information enables the network operator or processor to be actively involved in maintenance and service.For software maintenance, the Hypercom SmartICE terminal uses application downloading from the Hypercom PC-based Term-Master, terminal-to-terminal loading (fast loading), or loading from the processing host.The Hypercom Term-Master software manages the SmartICE terminal. Term-Master is a PC application that can store, retrieve, update, and transmit a custom configuration for any terminal in a customer terminal population. Term-Master also handles terminal software loading using an optional dial-up request, remote diagnostics, and retrieval of terminal operation statistics.For initial configuration, the user enters terminal-specific information using Term-Master before the terminal goes online for full initialization of operating parameters from the processing host.

Equipment Information940264-001 Hypercom Corporation 1-3Terminal Connection PortsThe following is a description of the ports on the SmartICE terminal.LAN PortThe RS485 LAN port allows up to 16 terminals to be installed in environments using the Hypercom MiniNAC-II, NAC-1A, or NAC-6A LAN controller.PIN Pad PortThe PIN pad port supports a range of PIN pads including Hypercom Models S7, S7-C, and S8.PIN encryption is according to ANSI X 9.8. The capability to generate ANSI X 9.9 Message Authentication Code (MAC) is optional. The PIN pad port supports multiple master and working keys.Power PortThe power port supports two types of Hypercom power packs. The Linear power pack is used within the United States of America. The Switcher power pack is used outside of the United States.Contrast Control DialRotating the Contrast Control Dial, located on the left side of the terminal, changes the contrast of the display screen.Terminal ModemThe optional internal modem, the FastPOS 9600, is compatible with the Bell 212A modem and the CCITT V.22 interface and provides for Asynchronous or Synchronous operation at 9600 bps. The optional modem is suitable for both dial and leased-line operation.Terminal RadioThe SmartICE supports four radios types: CDPD (cellular digital packet data), Mobitex, GSM, and the 900 MHz. Terminal Power AdaptorsHypercom offers two types of terminal power adaptors: The Linear power adaptor is used within the United Stated of America. The Switcher power adaptor is used internationally.
Chapter 11-4 SmartICE Hardware and Installation Manual 940264-001Transactions and FunctionsThe SmartICE terminal supports the full transaction set required for authorization, draft capture, debit, check verification and guarantee, proprietary cards, and mail and phone. Term-Master supports automated terminal configuration, terminal interrogation, automated program changes, and merchant installation.Terminal InitializationAutomated Terminal Configuration is downloaded from the host or from the Hypercom Term-Master application. Term-Master terminal profiles are downloaded through terminal initialization to meet the specific requirements of merchant categories such as restaurants (tips), retail, supermarkets, and the hospitality industry.Terminal DiagnosticsTerm-Master supports terminal interrogation and the reporting of status and statistics such as response time measurements, communication errors, re-dials, card-read errors, and password review.Application Program ChangesProgram changes are automated and downloaded through either a host-resident process or Term-Master.
Equipment Information940264-001 Hypercom Corporation 1-5FeaturesFinancial IntegrityThe SmartICE terminal generates automatic reversals to achieve total financial transaction integrity. These reversals ensure that communications and processing errors do not result in lost transactions, duplicate processing, or the failure of terminals to balance. The SmartICE terminals also enable simple terminal balancing and settlement, while eliminating network overloads caused by end-of-day batch transfers.Fast Response TimesThe fast response time of the SmartICE terminal is the direct result of the efficient SDLC protocol, which permits pre-dialing and message compression. At a speed of 9600 bps, EFT messages of 150 characters are transmitted in 0.8 seconds, increasing throughput four to ten times over traditional 300 bps Asynchronous terminals.Reduced Communications CostsThe SmartICE terminals reduce transaction costs by taking advantage of recent advances in communications and networking technology. Using an optional modem, the savings are generated through short dial-up online times, local area networking, and concentration using the Hypercom regional Network Access Controllers (NACs), reducing long distance costs and improving network economics. These terminals actively interface through the Hypercom NACs with SNA, X.25, and BISYNC networks already in place.
Chapter 11-6 SmartICE Hardware and Installation Manual 940264-001Networking EfficiencyThe SmartICE terminals are totally compatible with the Hypercom family of Network Access Controllers (NACs), providing end-to-end network optimization and concentration to keep communication costs low.Term-MasterThe SmartICE terminals support parameter and software downloading. Parameter downloading does not affect merchant totals due to the sophisticated architecture of the terminal. Term-Master collects Management Information System (MIS) statistics and can be interrogated online for speedy problem resolution. The PC-based Term-Master package supports software download requests from terminals even when the PC is unattended, ensuring terminal software is automatically kept up to date.Using an optional modem, a merchant can install the SmartICE terminal through the menu-driven procedure that identifies the telephone line profile (tone or pulse, PABX access code), prompts for the telephone numbers for initialization and network management, and prompts for a unique terminal identification number with optional check digit.
