Overview

This article describes how to configure a Heartland Restaurant network to use the PAX S920 device to process payments with the Pay at the Table service. This service is only supported by Heartland Payment processing. To function properly, the device must be loaded with a Special PAX Store template for Heartland Restaurant. If you attempt to set up a PAX S920 to perform Pay at the Table with any other processor, it will not install successfully. 

We recommend you make any adjustments to the device at the PAXStore level to ensure that, if the device’s firmware is ever updated or changed, those updates will include the site-specific settings. If you do not set them at the PAXStore level, your settings will be overwritten by any downloads.

Prerequisites: You must add a S920 SKU to an opportunity in Salesforce. The Merchant Account must have a Heartland Processing MID in Salesforce to complete order, and the merchant must be processing with Heartland Payments Systems.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the PAX S920 device, please email them to paxsupport@e-hps.com, or call 1.888.909.8498.

Heartland Restaurant Account Number

To set up a PAX S920 device to perform Pay at the Table service, you must enter the Heartland Restaurant Location number as the account number in the PAXStore. The HPOS Order Fulfillment team will add the HR Location ID into the PAXStore Account Template box before shipping the device to assist its setup and configuration. If the Server Page is not already set in the template, follow the instructions below to add the Location/Account number manually or contact PAX to have it added to the PAXStore template.

  1. Log into the Heartland Restaurant Admin Console. ( hrpos.heartland.us ).
  2. In the Main Menu, click Resellers, then click the appropriate dealer.
