810 Overview
This chapter provides a brief description of the V
x
810. The V
x
810 is a customer-
facing premium PIN pad brought about by VeriFone’s innovative Purpose Inspired
Design program which focuses on real-world usage.
Apart from its sleek, compact, and functional design, the V
x
810 features a triple-
track, high coercivity magnetic stripe reader (MSR) and a Smart Card reader, both
built and proven to perform consistently, even under the heaviest volumes. It also
has a Secure Digital Input Output (SDIO) expansion port that allows you to
upgrade the device to support contactless payments.
The V
x
810 also offers an array of connectivity options all from a single port
(including serial, USB, or optional Ethernet) so you can connect to almost any
device or ECR. Plus, the V
x
810 gives you the option to add a base unit with a
printer and modem to create a fully-loaded payment solution with a hand-over PIN
pad – all in one single device.

NOTE
VeriFone ships variants of the V
x
810 for different markets. Your device may have
a different configuration. For example, the V
x
810 may or may not have a PSCR; it
may or may not have an MSR; it may have none or 3 SAMs; flash ROM size may
be from 4MB, to 8MB or 16MB; and SRAM size may be from 2MB to 4MB.
However, the basic processes described in this guide remain the same,
regardless of configuration.
