Peachtree by Sage Accounting software is
available in several versions and is a comprehensive solution for your
business.
Both our PS/2 and USB Interface card
readers will work with their software. If however your reader has been
modified and does not work properly with PeachTree Software you may follow these
steps to configure them to work.
PS/2 Interface
Steps: With your keyboard connected to the card reader
and using Windows notepad or some other program you can
type in, follow these steps:
-
<Left Ctrl>
<CapsLock> <Right Shift> <Backspace> This will display the prompt "Press F1-F10 for
options"
-
Now press the F10 and
the reader will display "Reset All Defaults: Yes"
-
Press
the <Enter> key to reset unit.
-
Press F1 and use the <Down
Arrow> keys to display the "Send Numerics As:" option.
-
Use your <Right Arrow>
to configure the reader to use "MAIN KEYBOARD KEYS"
-
Now press and hold down
the following keys: <Left Ctrl> <Escape> and release both
keys. This will display the message "Setup Complete Changes
saved".
USB
Interface
Steps: After downloading and installing the Universal
Programmer software, you will want to run it and follow the steps
below:
-
When the programmer is
loaded into memory it will load the default configuration and you will be
presented with a screen that shows "Configuration currently at default!".
This is referring to the configuration that is currently loaded in memory on
the computer but not the one in the reader.
-
Press F1 to display the
Interface settings dialog.
-
Move your mouse or use the
<Tab> key to move the current input focus to "Send Numerics As" and
change the setting to MAIN KEYBOARD KEYS.
-
Click Ok to save the settings
in memory.
-
Either click on
the Send MSR button or select the File Menu and choose Send
Configuration. The reader will beep and you will see a progress
bar run across the window indicating that the configuration is being sent to
the reader.
Note: Currently PeachTree by Sage does not
use OPOS drivers to interface with the Credit Card Readers
however if in the future they do implement OPOS setup for card
readers, please visit the OPOS section
for installation notes for OPOS
mode.
