What you'll need
- Yoximo terminal
- Power adaptor
- Battery
- User manual
Configuring the Tyro gateway
If you have not already enabled Tyro as your default gateway in Retail POS, you'll need to configure your payment settings before the payment terminal can be added to your account. Refer to the gateway credentials sent to you by Tyro, log in to the Tyro merchant portal, or contact Tyro customer support.
- In Retail POS, navigate to Settings > Payment Processing.
- Click + Add Payment Gateway.
- From the dropdown menu, select Tyro. The options for the gateway will now display.
- Under Assign a Name, enter a name for the gateway.
-
Under gateway credentials, enter the triPOS credentials you received from Vantiv.
To prevent errors, it's recommended to copy and paste your credentials into the corresponding fields. Any leading or trailing spaces may cause connection errors.
- If you have a multi-store account, under Select Shops, select all locations that will use the gateway.
- Under Credit Card Payment Mapping, for each of the credit and debit card types, select how the corresponding card type will appear on invoices and sales reports. For example, if you created a custom Visa payment type, selecting it from the Visa list will mark all Visa sales as Visa. If you want to change the names of cards in Credit Card Payment Mapping, you'll need to set up the credit card payment type in Settings > Payment Types, so the Credit/Debit button appears in Retail POS.
- Click Save.
Setting up the Yoximo terminal
- Connect the power adapter into the port at the back of your terminal and connect the other end to a power source.
- Power on the Yoximo by pressing the yellow button on its keypad.
For security purposes, all Tyro Yoximo terminals are shipped as deactivated. Once the terminal is plugged into a power source and router, you'll need to contact Tyro Customer Support to activate it. You'll need your business trading name and the serial number located on the bottom of the terminal. Once the terminal has been successfully activated, it can be added to Retail POS.
Connecting the Yoximo terminal to your WiFi network
To connect the Yoximo to your network via a WiFi connection:
- Complete Tyro's Network Connectivity Test to confirm that your network is configured correctly to communicate with Tyro.
- On the Yoximo's keypad, press Menu > Network and Diagnostics > Network Setup > WiFi Scan. If this is the first time you set up a WiFi connection on your Yoximo, a Sign On Failed - No WiFi Network message will display on its screen.
- Select your network.
- Enter your network's password. As the password you enter is case sensitive, press the Menu button on the Yoximo's keypad to change between lowercase letters, capital letters, and numbers.
- Press Finish. The Yoximo will restart and connect to your network.
