IVI CheckManager 3000:
This combination terminal and check reader usually stands beside other point of sale
terminals, sometimes sharing a printer. It is dedicated to running checks and sometimes
comes pre-programmed from the vendor. This eliminates the need to add an additional
program to the VeriFone terminal that maybe dedicated to credit cards only. The program
running on the CM 3000 contains multiple configuration options that can allow it to
behave like several different standard programs for VeriFone terminals as listed in
Appendix A. Please refer to the Checkmanager 3000 chapter to obtain the details on
configuration and setup of this terminal/check reader.
