How to configure a PeP payment terminal?

This article explains how to configure a PeP payment terminal to work with the cairo.ERP system. Configuring a PeP terminal enables handling credit card payments for sales and refunds.

PeP terminals support both sales and refunds. The device is configured by the PeP service provider, who sets the communication method (LAN or COM). You cannot change the communication type yourself. If you are unsure whether the terminal is set for LAN communication, contact PeP.

The terminal can be connected to Wi-Fi or via an Ethernet cable, depending on the device model.

Required information and settings

• TID (pos id) number: This is your terminal's identification number. You can find it on every printout from the terminal. If you can't find it, print a connection test from the terminal settings – in addition to the TID, you'll also find other information, such as software version and connection type.

• Settings in cairo.Desk:

  1. Go to cairo.DESK > Ustawienia.

  2. Make sure Desk Webservice is configured and enabled (Configuration details can be found >>HERE<<).

  3. Go to Settings > Płatności > PeP > Ustawienia. Here you need to provide the TID number, specify the communication method, and check the "ready" option.

  4. Adding a workstation: Go to cairo.DESK > Stanowiska. You need to add a workstation (e.g., fslinux913) that will send payments. If such a workstation does not exist, it should be created.

  Remember that one cairo.Desk is connected to one terminal, but multiple workstations (so-called "fslinuxes") can connect to one cairo.Desk, allowing multiple computers to use a single payment terminal.

• Workstation parameter settings in the ERP system:

  1. Go to: ERP > ADMINISTRATION > Parameters > Position> General parameters.

  2. Enable the Payment Terminal option.

  3. Make sure the cairo.DESK ACTIVE option is also enabled.

Supported terminal models

All terminal models provided by PeP should be compatible. However, we always recommend direct contact with PeP, who will advise on the appropriate model after being informed about your use of cairo.ERP. Contacting PeP is also necessary to use their services.

Payment handling

After successful configuration, selecting the credit card payment method in the cairo.ERP system will establish communication with the PeP payment terminal.
