Description of the operating elements

Handling the device
To switch on the device, insert your bank card into the card slot with the chip facing downwards. The tanJack® photo QR EN switches on automatically and is ready to take a photo of the code of your online banking application. After 15 seconds of inactivity, a message appears, telling you to withdraw the card or switch the device back on with the OK key. After further 15 seconds, the device switches off and the tanJack® photo QR EN is in standby mode. When you have finished generating the TAN, you can switch off the device by withdrawing the card. This saves power and prolongs the life of the batteries.
Changing the batteries
Use your finger nails or a blunt object such as a plastic card to open the
battery compartment and open
the lid by pressing the sides and pulling the tab at the same time.
Three standard AAA 1.5 V alkaline batteries are used.
Please pay attention to the correct battery polarity when changing the batteries.

4.2 TAN generation
You can generate a TAN in different ways with the tanJack® photo QR EN.
Please check which TAN procedure your bank supports. Consult your bank if
necessary.
4.2.1 TAN generation with QR or colour matrix code
The tanJack® photo QR EN supports the chipTAN QR procedure and the Sm@rt-TAN
photo procedure.
To photograph a QR or colour matrix code, insert the chip card into the chip card slot with the chip facing downwards. The TAN generator switches on and is ready to take a photo of the QR or colour matrix code.
Hold the switched-on device in front of the display where the QR code or colour matrix code is shown in your online banking application. When the tanJack® photo QR EN recognises the QR or colour matrix code, the TAN generation starts automatically. The following appears in the TAN generator display, for example:
Press the OK key
Check that the values shown in the display match the data of your transaction and confirm respectively by pressing the OK key until you are shown the payment TAN.
Notes on the QR or colour matrix code
The tanJack® photo QR EN can only read specially coded QR or colour matrix
codes. Other QR or colour matrix codes are ignored by the reader and are not
read out.
If the data of your transaction do not match the tanJack photo QR EN display,
cancel the transaction by withdrawing the card and inform your bank.
For technical reasons, you will have to hold the tanJack® photo QR EN much
closer to the monitor to photograph the colour matrix code (Sm@rt-TAN photo)
than is the case for the QR code (chipTAN QR procedure).
4.2.2 Manual TAN generation
Using the manual TAN generation, you can generate TANs by entering the
transaction data manually. For this, you need a start code which is provided
by your online banking application.
To create a TAN manually with the tanJack® photo QR EN, press the TAN key with the chip card inserted. “Start-Code:” appears in the display.
Now use the numbers on the keypad shown by your online banking application to enter the start code. Confirm the start code by pressing the OK key briefly. Enter your transaction data one after another and confirm them with the OK key. Finally, the TAN is displayed which you can then enter in your online banking application.
If you do not press any more keys within about 30 seconds, the device switches off with the message “Transaction ending…” followed by “Please remove the card or restart with OK”.
4.2.3 TAN generation with ATC
The ATC (Application Transaction Counter) shows the number of TANs that were
already generated. This value is necessary for synchronisation of your chip
card with your bank. Your online banking system may prompt you to perform this
synchronisation.
ATC display with manual data entry
To have the ATC displayed, press the TAN key with the chip card inserted until
“ATC activated!” appears in the display.
“Start-Code:” appears in the display immediately after releasing the TAN key. Then, press the OK key or the TAN key, then the ATC is also displayed next to the TAN.
The ATC display is deactivated the next time a TAN is generated.
ATC display with QR or colour matrix code
To have the ATC with QR or colour matrix code displayed, press the OK key with the chip card inserted until “ATC activated!” appears in the display.
The reader is ready to photograph the code after releasing the OK key. After photographing the code, the TAN and the corresponding ATC appear after confirming the transaction data.
4.2.4 TAN generation with User-PIN
With the tanJack® photo QR EN you can use the TAN procedure (standard) and the
TAN procedure
with User-PIN to generate your TANs. If a User-PIN is assigned, you cannot
generate a TAN without entering the User-PIN first. The User-PIN therefore
offers a security mechanism for your online banking.
Attention: Please use this function only when your bank has expressly confirmed its support of this function. Improper use of the TAN function with PIN can lead to your chip card becoming useless for your current TAN procedure!
Note for credit card users: The PIN and PUK administration functions described
below are not available for credit cards with TAN generation function.
The User-PIN must always be entered for a TAN generation for credit cards.
The following figure shows you the full menu for the User-PIN. All sub-menus
are not always displayed.
Only some of the menu items are visible depending on the application.
init: Assigns a User-PIN. See chapter Assigning a User-PIN
change: Changes an already assigned User-PIN.
activate: Activates the TAN procedure with User-PIN.
deactivate: Deactivates the TAN procedure with User-PIN.
unblock: Unlocks the locked bank card by means of the PUK if the wrong
User-PIN was entered three times.
PIN try cnt.: Shows the input error counter of the PIN, how many attempts
you have left to enter the correct User-PIN.
PUK try cnt.: Shows the input error counter of the PUK, how many attempts
you have left to enter the correct PUK.
Using the User-PIN menu
Press the -key and select the User-PIN menu by long pressing on key 3 on the
keypad of your device.
For security reasons, the “User-PIN” menu item does not open until the OK key of key 3 of the keypad has been pressed for 3 seconds.
After pressing the OK key for 3 seconds, the following display appears:
Assigning and activating a User-PIN
You are already in the User-PIN menu.
Select item 1 init.
This dialogue enables you to assign a User-PIN for your card.
Note: If this dialogue does not appear, a User-PIN has already been assigned
for this bank card.
Then assign your personal User-PIN with a length of at least 5 and maximum 12 digits. Confirm your inputs with the OK key.
Repeat your User-PIN and confirm the repetition with the OK key.
A message that you have changed the PIN successfully now appears. Your User- PIN was activated and must be entered before a TAN generation in future.
Please remember the entered User-PIN well. If you forget it and do not have the PUK, the card can no longer be used for your online banking.
Activating/deactivating PIN protection with User-PIN
With this function, you can activate and deactivate the PIN protection for an
assigned User-PIN, i.e. the
User-PIN of your card is prompted or not before a TAN generation.
You are in the settings in the User-PIN menu.
Select item 2 deactivate or item 2 activate.
You must always enter your already assigned User-PIN to activate or deactivate
the PIN protection.
The PIN protection is then activated or deactivated.
Withdraw the card from the reader to end the procedure.
Unlocking locked User-PIN with PUK
If you enter the wrong User-PIN three times, it will be locked. It can only be
unlocked with the PUK (Personal Unblocking Key). Your bank card must support
the PUK function for this. If this is the case, you have probably received the
PUK together with your card PIN in a letter from your bank.
Please contact your bank if you are unsure whether your card supports the PUK function.
Note: If your card has no PUK function, your bank card can no longer be used for TAN generation. You need a new bank card. Please contact your bank.
Below, it is assumed that your User-PIN is locked and you have a PUK to unlock it.
This is how to unlock the User-PIN with your PUK:
You are in the settings in the User-PIN menu.
Select item 1 unlock.
Then enter the PUK from your PUK letter. Confirm your input with the OK key. You will then be prompted to change your PIN.
5. Error Codes
The following error states can occur. The error codes are then shown in the display with “Error XX”.
