Your Moneris terminal features a color touch screen.

- To view content (for example, a menu or report) that extends past the bottom of the screen, swipe up. Swipe down to go back to the top of the screen.
- The Main menu includes two screens. Swipe left to view screen 2. Swipe right to go back to screen 1.
Default screen
When the terminal starts up (assuming the initial setup has been completed), it will go directly to the Purchase screen as the default screen. However, there may be one or more Security prompts before you see the Purchase screen.
You may also change the default screen to another transaction (for example, Refund or Pre-authorization) or to a menu (for example, the Transactions menu or the Card Not Present menu).

The idle screen appears when the terminal has not been used for a minute. The idle screen shows:
- the Moneris logo
- the time
- the day and date
It protects the terminal from potential misuse while unattended.
The terminal will remain at the idle screen until you tap the screen or press a key.
Locking the screen
Locking the screen
In order to prevent unauthorized use, Moneris recommends locking the terminal screen when:
- your terminal is unattended, for example, when you are away from the cash register area;
- your business is closed. Leave the terminal powered on and lock the screen.
To lock the screen:
- Think of a lock code you will remember (using 4 to 10 digits).
- You cannot use consecutive numbers (such as 1234) or repeating numbers (such as 1125).
- On the Main menu, tap Screen Lock.
The “Please enter a temporary lock code for this device” prompt appears. - Enter the lock code you determined in step 1, then tap OK.
The screen is locked.
To unlock the screen:- enter the same lock code you used to lock the screen, or
- enter your user ID and passcode.
