Antenna (Some
Wireless
Models)
NOTE
For some Omni 3600 terminals to establish a wireless connection, an external
antenna is provided. This connection allows communication with your service
provider to upload transaction data from the terminal and download system
upgrades to the terminal. Radio service is activated by your service provider.
Most Omni 3600 terminals have an internal antenna and this section can be
ignored.
Only use the antenna designed for your unit. Failure to use the proper antenna
results in the inability to establish a wireless connection.
CAUTION
Never hold the unit by the antenna; doing so may break the connection and void
your warranty.
Data transfers can also be performed through the Omni 3600 base (see
Omni 3600 Base Communications Ports).
This section only discusses Omni 3600 terminals with external antenna.
Installation
The Omni 3600 should arrive from manufacture with the antenna attached. If
unattached, use the following procedure to install the antenna:
1 Locate the antenna port on the side of the Omni 3600 terminal.
2 Align the respective “notch” inside the antenna to the key in the terminal
(Figure 18).
3 Push gently on the center of the base of the antenna until it locks in position.
Figure 18
Orientation
Antenna Installation
To establish good wireless communication (uplink), it is important that the antenna
always be vertically aligned with respect to ground and sky (Figure 19). For
example, if standing and holding the terminal horizontally, position the antenna at
an approximately 90° angle to the unit (that is, pointing up from the printer). This
should point the antenna directly at the sky.

O MNI 3600 TERMINAL
Antenna (Some Wireless Models)
If the unit is on a flat surface (for example, a table top) or docked in the Omni 3600
base, position the antenna so that it points directly at the sky. Soft detentes are
felt and clicks heard when positioning the antenna. These detentes maintain
antenna positions of 60°, 90°, and 180°.
Figure 19
Correct Antenna Position for Uplink
If an application (for example, SoftPay) is installed in your Omni 3600 unit, a
signal strength indicator may appear on the display.
Replace the
Antenna
If your Omni 3600 terminal has difficulties completing wireless transactions, you
may have to replace the antenna. Use the following procedure to replace the
antenna:
1 Remove the existing antenna from the Omni 3600 terminal:
a Rotate the antenna to align with the base of the unit, pointing away from
the back.
b Grasp the base of the antenna, close to the body of the terminal.
c Pull gently out until the antenna unsnaps from the antenna port.
2 Align the respective notch inside the new antenna to the key in the antenna
port on the terminal (Figure 18).
3 Push gently on the center of the base of the newly installed antenna until it

Step 1: Check the magnetic card reader
•
Perform a test transaction using several different magnetic stripe cards to
ensure the problem is not a defective card.
•
Ensure that you are swiping cards properly. With the Omni 3600 card reader,
the black, magnetic stripe on the card should face down, away from the
keypad.
•
Process a transaction manually using the keypad instead of the card reader. If
the manual transaction works, the problem may be a defective card reader.
Contact your VeriFone distributor or service provider.
•
If the manual transaction does not work, proceed to Step 4.
Step 2: Check the smart card reader
•
Perform a test transaction using several different smart cards to ensure the
problem is not a defective card.
•
Ensure that the card is inserted correctly. The chip on the card should be
facing up and inward.
•
Ensure the MSAM cards are properly inserted in the cardholders and the
cardholders are properly secured (see Install/Replace MSAM Cards).
•
If the manual transaction does not process, proceed to Step 4.
Step 3: Check the signal strength on-screen (SoftPay)
•
Signal-strength indicator displays at least one bar to indicate connectivity to
radio network.
•
Check antenna connection and orientation.
•
Ensure that the radio has been activated by your service provider.
Step 4: Check the telephone line
•
Connect to a working telephone and check for a dial tone. If there is no dial
tone, replace the Telco cable.
