Terminal Management System (TMS) parameter settings
EFTPOS terminal software
We recommend operating your terminal with the latest software (8.42b or higher). When your terminal restarts, the software version is displayed on the screen. While we aim to update your software automatically, not all terminals can be updated to the latest version. We can, however, swap your terminal with one running the latest software. If you need to swap your terminal, please contact your Relationship Manager or the Merchant Enquiries team on 1800 230 177 (available 24/7).
Physical terminal set up
Avoid moving the EFTPOS terminal base if possible, as cables may be damaged. Ensure your terminal is only paired to one base.
Always place your EFTPOS terminal back on the base it was installed with. It will not function correctly if it’s placed on a different base. For more info, view the Essential Move5000 POS Stand Guide.
