First Time Setup

Before using the iCMP for the first time, it needs to be charged for a minimum of 3 hours (6 hours is a full charge).

Note: DO NOT use an iPad charging brick to charge the Ingenico reader, as it is too powerful. A phone charging brick can be used or a computer USB port.

  1. Plug the included micro USB cable into the charging port.
  2. Plug the other end of the micro USB cable into the included USB external power supply or a computer.
