To download the latest Drivers and Patches for a NCR RealScan scanner:
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Connect to www.NCR.com. Locate and Click Support. Locate and click Drivers and Patches. Locate and click Retail Support Files. Locate and click Retail Platform Software. Locate and click the appropriate RealScan Scanner. Locate and click the Scanner Firmware xxxxxxx.fls. The file name contains the last seven digits of the firmware part number that relates to a specific firmware version. NCR recommends you put it into the following folder. C:\Program Files\EasyFlash\Scanner Firmware\
To identify the firmware already in the scanner, scan the Diagnostic Mode, Hex 4, & Hex A programming tags. These must be the first tags scanned after applying power to the unit. The RealScan 7876 gives a voice message containing the 497-xxxxxxx number of its firmware. Compare this number with the number of the firmware file on www.NCR.com. Perform the firmware flashing procedure if the 497-xxxxxxx number of the firmware file on www.NCR.com is higher than what is already loaded in the RealScan 7876. To update the firmware in the scanner to the latest version, refer to the NCR RealScan Firmware Flashing (497-0430781) document. This document can be downloaded from www.NCR.com.

Item Diverter
An installed item diverter must extend inch beyond the scan window to allow items to clear the tower assembly and move easily in front of the scan windows. The tower is 13.3 cm wide, however the item diverter may need to be wider depending on the model. See the sections Checkstand Cutout for more dimensions.

Ventilation Requirements
The RealScan 7872 is designed to operate without an exhaust fan in the checkstand; however, there must be adequate convection airflow. The ambient temperature inside the checkstand cannot be higher than 40 C (104 F). Also, the ambient temperature inside the checkstand cannot be higher than 7 C (12.6 F) above the ambient temperature outside the checkstand. For example, if the ambient temperature outside the checkstand is 24.4 C (76 F), the ambient temperature inside the checkstand cannot be greater than 31.4 C (88.6 F). If the checkstand contains other heat producing equipment, you may need to use forced air to keep the temperature within the specified range. However, air coming into or leaving the checkstand MUST NOT enter or exit past the RealScan 7872.

Note: On units that do not have a handle on the front to grasp, pick up the unit by firmly grasping the tower with both hands and lowering the unit into the cutout, placing it either on its side supports or on a shelf below. 3. Install the Top Plate on the four supports (rubber posts). The leading edge of the Top Plate must be flush or up to 0.15 cm (0.06 in.) below the top of the checkstand. The trailing edge of the Top Plate must be flush or up to 0.15 cm (0.06 in.) above the top of the checkstand. Verify the final alignment of the Top Plate with the top of the checkstand. An item should easily slide from the checkstand, across the RealScan 7872 Top Plate, and back onto the checkstand. The following illustration shows proper alignment.

Over-Capacity Test
This test checks for the proper indication from the scale when too much weight is placed on the top plate. Note: This test must immediately follow the increasing load test; do not remove any of the weights prior to running this test. Place additional weight on the center of the top plate as shown in the following chart. Use the weight that corresponds to the RealScan 7872 weight feature. The display shows a series of dashes to indicate an over-capacity condition.

Shift Test
This test involves moving a weight off the center point of the top plate to check for continued accuracy. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Place 5.00 kg (15.00 lb.) of weight in position 1 on the Top Plate. Move the weight to position 2 on the Top Plate. The display should show 5.00 0.005 kg (15.00 0.01 lb.). Repeat step 2 for positions 3, 4, and 5. Move the weight to position 1 again. Remove all weights. The display should read 0.000 0.000kg (0.00 0.00 lb.). Press the Scale Zero Button. Record the Cal and PAr values shown on the display. Note: Positions 1 is in the center of the Top Plate. Positions 2, 3, 4, and 5 are halfway between the Top Plate center and the Top Plate corner.

Scanner Units
After passing the power on wellness check, the Status indicator flashes green, a tone sounds, then the Status indicator turns red. The RealScan 7872 is now operational.
Scanner/Scale Units
After the scanner passes the power on wellness check, the scale goes through a power on wellness check. During this time all segments on the remote display are turned ON so the operator can verify the display is working. Then the display reads 0.000kg or 0.00 lb. The Status indicator flashes red for five seconds, then it flashes green momentarily. A tone then sounds and the Status indicator turns red. The RealScan 7872 is now operational.
Programming
The RealScan 7872 comes from the factory with the programming parameters set to default values. The Communications Protocol is set at the factory to the specifications you requested on the order. However, you may want to make some parameter changes for the particular installation. Any necessary programming changes to the RealScan 7872 must be performed now. After programming changes have been completed, scan a number of bar codes to assure the scanner is working properly. The RealScan 7872 does not have an On/Off switch. Use the circuit breaker switch in the checkstand that supplies power to the unit as the On/Off switch.

Note: In most cases the factory determined defaults are the correct parameter setting. However, if you do need to make changes, it is recommended that you first set all parameters to default values and then make any necessary changes to the appropriate parameters.
