Learn how to set up your new Verifone Android Carbon Mobile 5 EFTPOS terminal
Get started with your Carbon Mobile 5 with Printer in three easy steps:
1. Power on your device
Your terminal will come charged and ready to use. Press and hold the Power button on the right side of the terminal to power it on or set up your charging base and place the terminal on the base to power it on.
Your terminal will start up and load the Payment screen. If your terminal connects via mobile data with a SIM, you’re good to go! If not, you'll need to connect to Wi-Fi.
NOTE: To power off or restart your terminal, press and hold the Power button for 1 second and then tap Power off or Restart. You will need to remove the terminal from the base first, if you have one, to turn it off.
2. Connect to Wi-Fi
- Swipe down from the Notification bar at the top of the screen and tap and hold the Wi-Fi icon
- Select your network from the available networks list
- Enter your Wi-Fi password and tap CONNECT
- Press the
button in the bottom Navigation bar to navigate back to the Payment screen
We recommend you set your passcodes up when you first get your terminal, so you’re ready to process a refund when you need to.
To set up your passcodes, call our Technical Helpdesk on 0800 338 767 and they will guide you through setting up a six-digit manager passcode and a four-digit cashier passcode.
