This guide explains how to prepare an Ingenico EC device (older models from the iCT and iWL series) for direct connection to Belbo. The settings are configured once directly on the device.
Prerequisites
- You are using Belbo on a computer (Windows or Mac) or an iPad.
- The terminal is already in operation and manual payments have been successfully processed.
- The terminal and computer/iPad are on the same WLAN or LAN network.
- You have the Cashier PIN (often
12345) and the Technician PIN (often11599) at hand. If neither value is correct, request it from the hotline of your terminal provider.
Menu Navigation on the Device
Before you begin, here's a quick overview of menu operation:
- Open menu: Press the F button twice briefly (function key, usually to the left of "0" on the numeric keypad).
- Navigate: Arrow keys up and down.
- Confirm: Green OK button.
- Back / Cancel: Red X button.
After opening the menu, the following main items appear:
- Transaction Type
- Favorites
- Actions
- Settings ← Starting point for all following steps
- Service
- Additional Application
- Last Selection
Select Settings (item 4) and enter the Cashier PIN (often 12345). You will now see four sub-items, two of which are relevant:
- Terminal – for ZVT mode and operating mode options (Steps 1 and 2)
- Connection – for IP address and port (Step 3)
Step 1 of 3: Activate ZVT Mode
In this step, you will switch the terminal to ZVT mode so it can receive commands from the POS system.
- Go to Settings → Terminal.
- Select Operating Mode. The terminal will now request the Technician PIN (often
11599). - Select ZVT700 and confirm with the green button.
- The terminal will restart automatically. Wait until it has fully booted up.
Step 2 of 3: Disable Operating Mode Options
After the restart, open Settings → Terminal → Operating Mode Options again. Set all seven options to Off:
- Atos Card-IDs → Off
- Login → Off
- Status Query → Off
- Comm. via POS → Off
- Print via POS → Off
- Block Print → Off
- Closing Message (Auto) → Off
Step 3 of 3: Configure Network Connection
Open Settings → Connection. Here you configure how the terminal is reached on the network. Belbo communicates with the terminal via IP address and port.
- Select TCP/IP as the connection type (for WLAN devices: WLAN).
- Make sure the terminal has a static IP address (assigned as a static IP in the router). Note down the IP address.
- Check the port – for Ingenico devices, this is usually
5577or20007. Note down the port; you will need it in Belbo.
Next Step: Set up Connection in Belbo
The terminal is now prepared for ZVT. Now set up the connection in Belbo – you will need the IP address and port from Step 3.
