  2. Once this rectangle appears, press the Enter (green) key to display the Elavon Sub Menu. The Elavon Sub Menu can be accessed whenever this rectangle is displayed during the boot up sequence. This menu provides access to HEM/IngEstate (see under Terminal Maintenance) and the Elavon Main Menu.

    On some systems, a Calibrate Screen entry will appear. This entry can be used if the touchscreen is unresponsive. For systems that support Point to Point Protocol (PPP) communications, the Elavon Sub Menu will contain an entry, Disable PPP Session (see below). This selection will temporarily disable PPP functionality, which will allow PIN Pad maintenance to be performed through an IP connection.PPP functionality will be restored following the next reboot.
