ACM Communications Port Driver

The ACM Communications Port driver helps Windows recognize and communicate with compatible Ingenico equipment through a virtual communications port. It is intended for users setting up an Ingenico device or troubleshooting a missing port, an unrecognized device, or a connection problem in their payment software.

Key Features

• Communications port support: Provides the interface Windows needs to exchange data with compatible Ingenico hardware.
• Application connectivity: Allows software configured for serial communication to access the device through its assigned COM port, where supported.
• Device recognition: Helps Windows identify the ACM Communications Port rather than leaving it listed as an unknown device.
• Windows compatibility options: Driver packages may support Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, and XP. Select the package that matches your device and operating system, including 32-bit or 64-bit architecture.

How to Install ACM Communications Port Driver

1. Check your device and Windows version. Confirm your Ingenico model and system architecture before choosing a package. If you are comparing Windows 10/11 compatibility, note that Windows 11 is not listed among the supported operating systems here; verify support with Ingenico before proceeding.
2. Choose the correct package. Before starting your ACM Communications Port driver download for Windows, review the compatibility information. Choose the latest version approved for your hardware and OS, and use a trusted source when selecting a free download.
3. Prepare the files. Extract the download if it comes in a compressed archive. Close applications that communicate with the Ingenico device, and follow any included instructions about when to connect it.
4. Install the driver. Run the supplied installer, if available. For a manual installation, open Device Manager, locate the device, select Update driver, and browse to the extracted driver folder. Administrator permission may be required.
5. Verify the connection. Restart Windows if prompted, then check Device Manager for warning icons. If a COM port is assigned, make sure your application uses the matching port and the connection settings specified for your Ingenico equipment.

Keep the driver updated when Ingenico releases a compatible update that addresses connection issues or supports your software requirements. On a working payment setup, check application compatibility before making changes and retain the previous installer in case you need to restore it.
