Software Installation and Encryption Keys Injection on the PAX Terminal

Before a payment terminal can automatically perform remote software installation and encryption key injection, it must first be activated on the Cybersource platform. To perform these automated processes, the terminal must be connected to the internet using a Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection.

The PAX terminal initiates this automated process to install software and inject encryption keys.

System connection:
The terminal establishes a secure link to the PAX terminal management system (PAXSTORE) using a Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection.

Download initiation:
The terminal automatically begins downloading all required software packages and encryption keys.

Activity notification:
The terminal makes a brief audible signal to indicate the start of the download process.

Progress display:
The terminal screen displays real-time status messages about the components being downloaded. If the terminal does not emit a sound or display download progress messages, open the PAXSTORE app on the Home screen to verify that the terminal is connected to the PAX terminal management system. You can also manually trigger downloads in the PAXSTORE app.
