Versioning

The official Simplify versioning scheme (from 2.02.021 on) includes a two-part prefix (S-PP below) indicating: (1) whether Simplify is operating as part of a PCI P2PE-validated solution, and (2) the encryption type. The prefix for a validated solution using On-Guard is V-OG. Versions with any other prefix are non-validated.

The Simplify versioning implemented is as follows:

S-PP-X.YY.ABBCC, where:

ElementData TypeDescription
SAlphabeticElavon enterprise implementation type (PCI P2PE-validated solution indicator)
  • V = validated
  • Missing or any other value = non-validated
PPAlphabeticEncryption type used by application:
  • OG = On-Guard
  • G2 = Voltage
XNumericMajor version
Example: X was incremented to 2 when EMV support was added.
YYNumericMinor version. Changes that affect architecture or security.
ABBCCNumericBuild release
  • A
    • 0-4: Only used for On-Guard implementations.
    • 5-9: Only used for Voltage implementations.
    • See further under CC.
  • BB
    • Feature changes that do not affect architecture or security.
  • CC
    • Sequential build number for HEM/IngEstate control. No impact on functionality. For bug fixes or adjustments. Note also:
      • For On-Guard builds above 99: A = the first digit of the build number. (E.g. 2.02.02799 for build 99 is followed by 2.02.12700 for build 100.)
      • For Voltage builds: A = 5 + the first digit of the build number.

The Simplify version number does not affect the EMV level. A separate internal EMV version is used for purposes of EMV certification:

  • EMVX.YY

Any time there is a change in the EMV interface or functionality, the EMV version will be updated.

The official Simplify version number is displayed during boot up and on an Informational Screen that can be briefly displayed by pressing 0 when the terminal is in the closed state. (To lengthen the display, press the + or – key.) If the second part of the prefix of the version number is OG (indicating On-Guard encryption), this will serve as an indicator that SRED is activated in the terminal.

Release Number

The Release number is a user-friendly identifier for Simplify releases ending with the Build number. It is displayed in the Release field on the Simplify Informational Screen and used to identify the document level of the Simplify Developer Guide, Download Configuration Troubleshooting Guide, and Customer Release Notes.

The Release number takes the form x.yy.bbb.ccc, where:

  • X = Major version
  • yy = Minor version
  • bbb = Feature level (padded “Version” number)
  • ccc = Build number

E.g. the Release number for “Version 28” Build 118 is 2.03.028.118. Simplify guides with this identifier cover all functionality available (depending on device) through Build 118. This functionality is available on “Version 21” to “Version 28”. (Unattended is supported on “Version 29”.)

Software and Certification Version Numbers

Note for the following tables: Simplify versions are official PCI designations. The Release number is a user-friendly form of the Simplify version, where xxx = build number.
