- If you want Windows to decide the COM port make sure that the check box is not enabled to “Force COM Port Feature enabled”. Click “Next”.
- If you want to preset the COM port that the Ingenico will always use then you will want to check the box “Force COM Port Feature enabled”. In the ”Product ID” drop-down menu select “0060 (Ingenico IPP3xx/IPP4xx)” or “0062 (Ingenico ISC 2xx)”, then type in the COM in the “Virtual COM Port” field. In this example we are using port 10.

- Click next through the remaining prompts of the installation.
- Connect the Ingenico IPP to your register Via the provided USB interface cable. Windows should recognize the device and load the previously installed Virtual Com Port Driver.
- Confirm Windows has detected the device by going to Windows Device Manager > Ports (COM & LPT). You should see a new port listed as for the Ingenico PinPad.
- You can access Device Manager by right-Clicking “My Computer” > Select Properties > then from the properties screen select “Device Manager”.
- If the device fails to recognize or if MicroSale fails to communicate with the device, it may not be configured for the correct interface. To change this setting on the pinpad, follow the steps below:
IPP320/350
- Once the iPP320/iPP350 loads the "splash" screen (see screenshot below), quickly press 2-6-3-4, the green enter key, followed by the "F" key.

Installation and Configuration of IDTek MiniSmart II and Augusta:
The unit is installed as an HID compliant device and does not require any additional setup in Windows. This is also the integrated EMV chip reader solution utilized by the Quest Tablet.
- In the pinpad assignment and configuration in MicroSale you will select the “ID Tech MiniSmart II” or “Augusta” attached device and assign it to Comm Port “1”.

Creating an EMV Payment Tender
You must enable EMV on the credit card payment tender to use EMV processing.
- Go to Managers Menu > Register Setup > Terminal Configuration > Tenders-Job Codes-Paid Outs-etc.
- On an Existing Credit Card Tender:
a. Click on the dropdown under "Tender Name" and select Credit Card
b. Remove "Authorization Required" and tick the option next to EMV Pad.
c. Save - To create a New Credit Card Tender:
a. Type in Credit Card number Tender Name
b. Tick the option next to EMV Pad
c. Save
Batch Settlement:
Most processors will settle the batch through the POS when using EMV. This process is just like the settling of charges using the standard non-emv processing solutions. During the end of day, MicroSale will prompt to settle/clear the batch. No additional settings are required.
RAPIDCONNECT- if using this processing platform, MicroSale will run end of day as normal but you must use the functions.ini file. Edit the line, “Rapid Connect in Use=” to “Yes” so that it will clear the batch records from MicroSale. This option is only used with the Rapid Connect Net Epay version.
Offline CC Storage (Store and Forward):
This feature works with Datacap’s Net Epay EMV solutions only. To enable the feature you will need to allow it and configure it in the Net Epay software setup through the Datacap PSCS website. Along with enabling/disabling the feature you are also able to set limits on the number of transactions stored offline, purchase limit for stored transactions, and the amount of time that it will allow you to store offline transactions.
A few offline settings can also be set in the MicroSale application. You will also be able to set the maximum number of offline charges the POS will allow as well as the maximum $ amount per transaction allowed.
Tabs and Prepayments
-
Compatibility Check:
- Discuss the compatibility of Tabs and PrePay with your merchant provider before implementation, as not all processors may support these features.
- Verify if specific card types, such as AMEX, are supported by both the processor and the chosen features.
-
Processor Configuration:
- Depending on your processor, configure settings by navigating to Managers Menu → Register setup → Terminal Configuration → Credit Card Setup → Datacap EMV.
- Locate and adjust the setting “Supports PreAuth” based on your processor's requirements.
-
Special Processor Requirements:
- If you are using TSYS, EVO, or First Data RapidConnect, select the field “Incremental Auth for TSYS-EVO-Rapid” for proper support.
-
Activate Tab Feature:
- Enable the Tab feature by going to Managers Menu → Register Setup → Terminal Configuration → Register Options → Full Service.
- Check the box next to the option “Hold Charge Card for Open Tabs.”
-
PrePay for Delivery Orders:
- By default, PrePay is enabled for Delivery orders.
- To disable the PrePay Order prompt, go to Managers Menu → Register Setup → Terminal Configuration → Register Options → Full Service.
- Check the box next to the option “Turn off credit card prompt for delivery.”
Ensure each step is carefully followed to successfully set up Tabs and PrePay Phone Orders on your system.
Misc. Customizations in MicroSale:
“Sign Line”, “Tip Line”, etc. are controlled by the EMV pinpad and processor by default. If you would like to use the receipt printing settings in MicroSale, you will need to disable the EMV print receipt.
Disabling the EMV receipt:
- In the “Functions.ini”, go to the credit card section that says “EMV Receipt=”. Type the word Off after the “=” and save the file. This will enable the use of MicroSale’s print settings. (should look like: EMV Receipt=Off)
This means that a tip has to be applied at the time the payment is made instead of after authorization, (where you add tips in at a later time without the credit card present).
To accommodate this, restaurants may want the tip line to print on the itemized receipt (normally it just prints on the credit card slip).
Adding a tip line for processors that do not allow tip adjustments (adding tip line on standard receipt):
- go to Managers Menu > Register Setup > Register Options by Terminal > Printing/Cash Drawer Options.
- Check the box “Print Tip Add Line on Receipt”/ Click “Save” before exiting. This would need to be done on each register.
