The Ingenico ISC 250 touch and ISC 350 terminals will have a message ‘lane closed’ when not in use. To be more clear, the Ingenico terminals are slaves to software that tells them what to do. So the user must be logged into their point of sale (POS) solution, integrated software, or virtual terminal that drives the terminal.
If you’re logged in and click on SALE and the terminal still says lane closed, you need to do some troubleshooting. Is the terminal properly connected to the PC or device driving it? If this is a terminal that was previously known to be working, try swapping cables with another if available.

3D Merchant Services provides payment processing technology merchants need to drive Ingenico and other EMV chip terminals, with full cashiering, and without the need to purchase any additional POS software. The credit card processing terminals can be operated with a secure virtual terminal or with integrated solutions that keep merchant POS applications out of scope for PA DSS. Many recent merchant data breaches have occurred from applications that were in scope for PA DSS. By segregating payments from POS applications, merchants can increase security while reducing compliance burden. Merchants have the option for point to point encrypted (P2PE) terminals and solution or optional Validated P2PE service; the latter requires extra steps for merchants and significantly reduces PCI compliance burden with an SAQ that’s about 90% shorter.
