EMV/NFC transactions involve cryptographic processing and secure data transmission. The reader's microcontroller handles the transaction and relays data to the display module. Potential failure points include: corrupted firmware, display driver error, insufficient voltage to the display, or baud rate mismatch between the main processor and the display controller. Signal attenuation due to damaged cabling can also cause display issues.
The Opus card reader accepts card payments successfully; however, the remaining balance is not displayed to the user.
Ensure safe handling practices are followed during troubleshooting. Unplug the device from the power source before inspecting cables. Do not use excessive force when connecting or disconnecting cables. Keep the device dry.
Try pressing and holding the 'Clear' button for 10 seconds during startup. This may reset the display buffer and resolve minor software glitches. An external USB isolator might mitigate EMI issues with the display's data connection.
