Setup Instructions for the Ingenico 6550 / 6780

The ingenico 6550 or 6780 is a PINpad, MSR, display and signature capture pad.
The following models have been currently tested with System Five. Other configurations should work. Only the COM (serial) configuration has been found to work with terminal services.

  • i6550 USB (HID) (not with Windows 8)
  • i6550 USB-COM
  • i6780 COM (serial) - works on Terminal Services. TCP/IP will work faster on Terminal Services but requires some network configuration to set the IP Address.
