Multi-terminal
Multi-terminal support
This function allows you to perform the Close Batch function on all terminals or a group of terminals associated with the same merchant number, from one of the terminals. For example, if you have 15 named terminals associated with your merchant number, you simply perform a multi-terminal batch close on one of the 15 terminals and the batches on all 15 terminals will be closed at the same time.
The totals (for example, terminal totals, clerk totals, tip totals) are cleared on the terminal that performs the multi-terminal batch close, but the totals are not cleared on the associated terminals.
To use multi-terminal batch close:
- Ensure that all terminals are using the same merchant ID.
- Enable multi-terminal support on the terminal that will be used to close the batches of the associated terminals, and give that terminal a name
- On each of the associated terminals, enable multi-terminal support and give the terminal a name
Once these settings are completed, you may perform a merchant-initiated multi-terminal batch close.
Note: Multi-terminal batch close applies only to merchants who close their own batches. It does not apply to merchants using system close where Moneris closes your batch automatically at the end of the day.

Communication Settings
Communication Settings
Wireless communication - Introduction
There are two versions of the terminal in terms of communication:
- Dual communication: this version is capable of using cellular communication (3G and 4G) as well as Wi-Fi. When both networks are enabled, the terminal switches automatically to the network with the stronger signal. For example, when the terminal is in range of your wireless router, it will use your Wi-Fi network. When you are travelling, it will use the cellular network.
- Wi-Fi only communication: this version is only capable of communicating with Moneris using a Wi-Fi network.
To proceed, click one of the links below based on your terminal's communication capabilities:
For more information
To learn more about the two types of communication, go to Wireless communication indicators.
Dual Communication Settings (4G + Wi-Fi)
The Communication Setup screen allows you set up, view, and modify your wireless communication settings. You can choose cellular (4G) or Wi-Fi or both. When both are enabled, the terminal connects to the network with the strongest signal. For more information, refer to Wireless communication indicators.
If you do not see the cellular option on the screen, refer to Wireless communication - Introduction to find out more.
- From the Main menu, tap Settings > Communication > Communication Setup.
- Tap the Cellular toggle to enable or disable cellular communication.
When cellular communication is enabled, the terminal communicates with Moneris from any location where 4G (or 3G ) service is available. The name of the cellular network (for example, Telus) appears below "Cellular".
If you choose to disable cellular communication, you must enable Wi-Fi in order to communicate with Moneris (see the next step). - Tap the Wi-Fi toggle to enable or disable Wi-Fi communication.
If you disable Wi-Fi, the terminal will remember the Wi-Fi networks you have set up. You will not have to set them up again. - When Wi-Fi communication is enabled, you can:
- Set up a Wi-Fi network either by scanning or by manual entry
- View and modify saved networks (These are networks to which you have already connected)
- Do one of the following:
- If you made any changes on this screen, tap Save;
- If you did not make any changes, tap Back.
Wi-Fi communication settings
If you are using a Wi-Fi network to communicate with Moneris, it is important to correctly set up the network on your terminal.
The Communication Setup screen allows you to:
- set up one or more Wi-Fi networks
- forget a saved network
- change a network password
- change network settings from dynamic IP to static IP
Note: When entering IP addresses, use the terminal's keypad. To enter a period, press the punctuation key once.
- From the Main menu, tap Settings > Communication > Communication Setup.
- Tap the Wi-Fi toggle to enable or disable Wi-Fi communication.
NOTE: If your terminal uses Wi-Fi only, Wi-Fi must be enabled in order to communicate with Moneris.
NOTE: If you disable Wi-Fi, the terminal will remember the Wi-Fi networks you have set up. You will not have to set them up again.

View and modify saved networks
The Saved Networks screen allows you to view properties for saved networks, change the network password, and modify network settings (for example, switching from dynamic IP to static IP addressing).
- At the Communication setup screen (see above), tap Saved Networks.
The terminal displays the list of Wi-Fi network(s) to which you have connected in the past. - Tap the saved network that you wish to view or modify.
The terminal displays the properties of the selected network, including signal strength, IP addresses, primary DNS, and secondary DNS, among other values.
