EMV Terminal Config File
EMV Terminal Configuration File Type
The host uses Command 0xD812 - Start Send File to Device (Unsecured) to load this file type to control the behavior of the device’s EMV contact kernel. The configuration loaded using this file type must be designed to work together with all instances of EMV Processing Configuration File Type and EMV Entry Point Configuration File Type the host loads into the device.
MagTek provides tools that allow these settings to be loaded using a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet for more convenient authoring, review, and change tracking. For a reference sample spreadsheet that contains EMVCo approved configurations, contact MagTek Support Services.
This document shows one example of the available Contact Level 2 certified configurations (DynaFlex C01, Merchant, Attended, ODA). To see which configurations are supported on the devices you are using, see the list of Vendor Config IDs in the device’s Letter of Approval for Contact Level 2 posted in the list of Approved / Evaluated products on the EMVCo web site. For detailed descriptions of the tags included in this file type, including possible valid values and their effects on device behavior, see EMV Integrated Circuit Card Specifications for Payment Systems v4.3.
