​

Setting up the Card Reader

1. Once you have unboxed your new reader, turn on the Stripe Reader M2 by pressing and releasing the power button. If the reader does not turn on, it may need to be charged using the included cable.

2. When the Stripe Reader M2 is on, you can press and release the power button once to check the battery level. The LEDs on top of the reader show the current status.

3. The status LEDs turn on for 2 seconds and the reader beeps twice. The reader waits for a Bluetooth connection for five minutes before turning off.

When the reader connects to a device running your app, the status LEDs on top of the reader flash four times. After connecting, the first status light begins flashing at five second intervals. The reader stays connected to your iOS or Android device while in standby mode and automatically exits standby mode when you resume activity.

When connected, the reader automatically turns off after 10 hours of inactivity. You can turn off the reader manually by pressing and holding the power button for four seconds. You don’t need to turn off the reader to conserve power. When the reader turns off, the four LEDs light up and then turn off one by one to indicate it has turned off.
