# Device Stop Configuration

> Configure a machine in Nayax Core to support Spark Device Stop alongside the Remote Start or Device Start feature.

The settings on this page prepare a machine for Spark Device Stop, where a card
presented at the terminal stops an active transaction. Device Stop runs alongside
Remote Start or Device Start on the same machine, so apply these settings on top of the
configuration for whichever start flow you use.

## Card Readers

The **Transaction Start Method** setting defines what can start a transaction through
the card reader while it is idle. Set it to **Accept All** so the card reader accepts
cards in idle mode to trigger the Device Stop flow.

<Note>
  When you pair Device Stop with Remote Start, this attribute must be **Accept All**,
  not **Accept Nothing**: Device Stop determines the value when the two run together.
</Note>

## VPOS Touch

The **VAS configurations** setting informs the server that the machine supports the
Spark Device Stop feature. Set it based on the start flow you pair with Device Stop:

* **Remote Start with Device Stop**: set **Spark Device Stop**, or both **Spark Device
  Stop** and **Spark Remote Start**. Both options work.
* **Device Start with Device Stop**: set **Spark Device Start (V2)** only. The Device
  Start (V2) value covers both Device Start and Device Stop.

## Configuration Summary

Use this table as a quick reference for Device Stop, depending on the start flow you
pair it with:

| Group        | Property                 | Remote Start with Device Stop                                   | Device Start with Device Stop                                              |
| :----------- | :----------------------- | :-------------------------------------------------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Card Readers | Transaction Start Method | Accept All                                                      | Single station: Button+Contactless+Contact. Multiple stations: Product     |
| VPOS Touch   | VAS configurations       | Spark Device Stop (or Spark Device Stop and Spark Remote Start) | Spark Device Start (V2) (or Spark Device Stop and Spark Device Start (V2)) |
