Protection against systematic testing - PIN code terminal

Systematic testing of possible PINs is a way for unauthorised persons to find out a valid PIN and possibly misuse it.

Your PIN code terminal is protected against this:

  • Tamper protection becomes active after the fifth incorrect PIN entry (User PIN, Master PIN etc.).
  • Duration: 60 seconds).
  • PinCode terminal beeps and flashes red in the meantime.
  • PIN code terminal cannot be operated in the meantime.

Once tamper protection has expired, the PIN code terminal can be operated again.

  • A PIN entered incorrectly again immediately reactivates tamper protection.
  • A correctly entered PIN resets the tamper protection counter to 0.
