1Getting Started
Congratulations on your purchase of a LAVA PayLink-IP/Dial. PayLink-IP devices securely connect payment terminals to payment processors over an Ethernet/TCP/IP connection. Any payment terminal that can transmit transaction information over a POTS port can send its information to the LAVA PayLink-IP/Dial.The LAVA PayLink-IP/DIal establishes an SSL-secured connection to the payment processor, places the serial data in a TCP/IP wrapper and sends it out its Ethernet port. Data moving the other direction, from the Ethernet side of the LAVA PayLink-IP/DIal to the payment terminal, undergoes the same process in reverse.
With a LAVA PayLink-IP/Dial, you can:
•Securely network payment terminals
•Stop using dial-up modems
•Eliminate long-distance phone-modem charges
Included with your package, you should have the following:
•LAVA PayLink-IP/Dial
•Power supply
•Quick Installation Guide
Before Proceeding: The PayLink-IP is factory preset with an IP address of 192.168.0.35. If this IP address conflicts with a device already installed on the network, follow the procedure described in the "Configuring network settings" section of this manual to set the IP address to a usable address.
