* Customers have reported using different PAX Terminal models that work in Plexis POS but we have only tested PAX S300 and SP30 terminals using PAX Base version 1.47. According to the PAX factory they indicated that all of their pin pad terminals use the same internal base software so other PAX models may work as well.

** Warning: Using unsupported PAX Base firmware may result in undesirable operation.
