P630 Hardware Installation

To install your P630 card reader follow the steps outlined below:

1. Begin by unboxing your new device and removing the P630 Plus reader, power supply, and power cable dongle.
2. To get started, slide the panel towards the top of the card reader. Plug the Ethernet dongle into its slot and slide the panel back on. Do this gently as the pins are very delicate and can easily get damaged. Make sure the cable feeds through the hole in the panel.
3. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the end of the port on the dongle labeled ETH. Plug the other end into the Ethernet port on your router.
4. Plug the power cable into the electrical port on the Ethernet dongle. It is recommended to secure this with a cable tie as it can become loose easily. Plug the other end of the power cable into a wall outlet, and the card reader will automatically power on. This process can take a few minutes.  
5. Once you have connected your card reader to the network, you’ll need to pair the card reader to your Toast device. If the network cable is connected correctly to both the card reader and the router, an Ethernet connection symbol (<>) will display in the top right corner of the screen. Once this is available, you will be ready to move on.
6. Select Board Terminal at the bottom of the card reader screen. Your store location will appear on the device. Select your location and select Confirm. If you are unsure that the correct store location is displayed, please contact Toast Support. The card reader will update and may restart several times. This entire process can take up to 30 minutes to complete. 
7. Once the device has completed the setup process, it will show a screen with the Toast logo and an Ethernet connection in the top right. That means your card reader is ready.
