Troubleshooting:
Files that hold the Cayan Genius Settings
-
KSCNF.DAT
-
MWGenius.DAT
-
MWGenius=xxxxxxxx.DAT command line switch:
Can be used to specify which data file should be used to load the settings for the Cayan Genius PIN Pad.
-
GeniusIP=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx command line switch:
Used to specify the network IP Address of the Cayan Genius PIN Pad device that the program will use (overrides
entry stored in Windows Registry). Example: GeniusIP=192.168.10.101
-
Windows Registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\KeystrokePOS\MWGenius (64-bit) or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\KeystrokePOS\MWGenius (32-bit)
NOTE: May need to run Keystroke POS "As Admin" to get these settings to stay.
Error requesting new Transport Key – "Dba is required but was not supplied."
This is caused by the Company Name field being blank. This is in Configuration Manager, under Settings and
Name/Address. This must contain something. This is not the Business Name in the Genius Setup (with Business Key
and Site ID).
Error requesting new Transport Key: Invalid login credentials (when testing in Configuration Manager):
This is due to having incorrect Business Name, Business Key or Site ID in the Genius settings. These must match exactly
what provided in the Cayan account setup.
Flush the DNS Cache:
Open a Command Prompt, and type in ipconfig /flushdns
You should see "Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache".
Trouble Saving the Genius IP Address in Keystroke POS:
You may need to run Keystrok.exe "As Administrator". This is because the settings need to be stored in the Windows
Registry. You should only need to run it once as Administrator and the setting will be saved. You can also force the IP
Address by using the Startup Switch: GeniusIP=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Getting "Error: FALSE" in Keystroke POS:
May happen when processing payments and Internet is down or Cayan is down. Note that an outage with Cayan may be
regional so other customers or SBS may not experience the outage.
Invalid Response from Cayan Genius "Error: Invalid Terminal Serial Number"
Call Cayan Technical Support at 800-498-0823 (x1, then x2) and have them add the correct serial number of the Genius
to your merchant account.
Getting "FAILED; 1103; error reading response" in Keystroke POS:
This happens when setup using PGS, and Cayan is not communicating the correct "Datawire ID" to the back-end
processor (BofA for example). No changes need to be made in Keystroke/Genius, just need Cayan to fix the Datawire ID
to the back-end processor.
Set your Genius device to use OpenDNS addresses:
See "Changing the DNS Server IP Address to an OpenDNS to speed things up" noted above on page 2.
Firewall/Router Port Settings (consult with your system administrator to confirm that the following ports are open):
443: SSL
7622: SFTP (via SSH)
Confirm that the following hosts are available
genius.merchantware.net
transport.merchantware.net
paycube.merchantware.net
Firewall/Router Access
The following URLs/Web Address must be allowed access in your Router or Firewall
https://transport.merchantware.net
https://genius.merchantware.net
To Test the Cayan Ports in Internet Explorer, use:
https://genius.merchantware.net/v1/Reporting.asmx
This will give you a "Mustang Reporting" page.
