Depending on your organization’s network security settings, the Network Team may need to modify the firewall to allow the device to communicate properly.

The following URL and port should be open, so the device can communicate:

• TRANSACTIONS URL: secure.payconex.net on PORT 443
• APP / UPDATE PUSH URL: t.paxstore.us on PORT 9080
