Set up Tyro

Set up a Tyro terminal to process payments and Medicare claims in Zedmed. This process involves installing Tryo software (called an adapter) that communicates with the Tyro machine (called a terminal) and then configuring Zedmed to use Tyro. 

Tyro Terminal Adapter setup

The Tyro Terminal Adapter is software that's downloaded from Tyro and installed on each POS workstation that connects to a Tyro terminal. The setup process adds the Tyro Merchant and Terminal IDs to the adapter software then pairs the Tyro terminal to the Tryo Terminal Adapter.

The setup is explained below but the process is a service that Tyro provides for its customers. If you have not been set up, give them a call on 1300 966 639. To learn more, see the Tyro website, which includes the following helpful pages: support, Tyro user guide, Zedmed integration.

To configure the Tyro Terminal Adapter:

1. Get the Merchant ID and Terminal ID for your Tyro terminal.
   To locate this information:
   
   
   1. Press the Menu key on the Tyro terminal's keypad.
   2. Scroll down to Configuration and press OK.
   3. Scroll down to Terminal Info and press OK.

Practice setup

Tyro needs to be selected as the Integrated Eftpos / Easyclaim provider on one of the machines running Zedmed. This can be a workstation or server.

To set Tyro as the POS provider:

1. Go to Zedmed's Management tab.
2. Select Practice Setup then select Practice from the list.
3. In the Integrated Eftpos/Easyclaim provider field, select Tyro.
4. Select Automatically Process Tyro Bulk bill transactions if you want Zedmed to auto-download the report and payments from Medicare. 
5. Select Close to save and exit.
   

Workstation setup

Every workstation running Zedmed needs to have Tyro enabled to access the Tyro POS functionality.

To enable Tyro:

5. Tick the Tyro checkbox. This indicates that Zedmed is now configured to send and Process Claims as Easyclaims to Medicare via Tyro.
   If  Tyro does not have a tick, then patient claims will be sent to Medicare Australia online via normal MA online claim channels.
6. Select Set to save and exit.
