NCR RealScan 7883 Mountings  
The NCR RealScan 7883 Scanner is a small, compact laser scanner available in two models. The RealScan 7883-1000 has  
many of the same features found in larger scanners. The RealScan 7883-1200 has the same capabilities as the 7883-1000;  
however, it uses the new Super ASIC technology. The RealScan 7883 can be mounted horizontally in a checkstand or  
vertically above the checkstand. Various mounts are available for the RealScan 7883.

Installation Instructions  
When installing a RealScan 7883, it is recommended that you first mount the Power Supply and run all the cables. After  
connecting the unit to the host terminal, make any necessary programming changes and scan some good tags to verify that  
the scanner is communicating with the host terminal. After verifying that everything is working correctly, mount the unit  
in the checkstand. If the RealScan 7883 does not work properly, refer to the problem correcting section in this document:

Step 2 - Setting Program Parameters and Verifying Host  
Connection  
Now you need to turn on the NCR RealScan 7883. First load new firmware if needed then make any necessary program  
changes. Next scan a few tags to verify that the RealScan 7883 is communicating with the host terminal.  
Note: The NCR 7883-1000 firmware cannot be flash. Only the NCR 7883-1200 firmware can be flash.  
Turning on the RealScan 7883  
The RealScan 7883 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. Put this switch in the On position.  
Flash Latest Firmware – 7883-1200  
Note: Firmware Flashing – Firmware flashing is only available on NCR RealScan scanners that have a Super ASIC  
Digital Board. The Super ASIC Digital Board models all have a 2 in the second digit of the model number. For example:  
7872-x2xx, 7875-x2xx, 7876-x2xx, 7883-x2xx. Older NCR Scanners have firmware chips that cannot be updated by  
flashing. These chips must be replaced to change the firmware.  
Although the latest firmware is loaded when the RealScan 7883-1200 is manufactured, newer firmware can be released  
after the unit is manufactured but before it is installed. NCR recommends that you check the number of the firmware in the  
RealScan 7883-1200 and compare it with the latest firmware available on www.NCR.com.  
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 7883 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 7883. Refer to the NCR RealScan 7883 User Guide for firmware flashing  
procedures.  
Programming the RealScan 7883  
Caution: Some host terminals can corrupt the RealScan 7883 program if they are running and are connected to the  
RealScan 7883 while you are making program changes. Either turn off the host terminal or disconnect the interface cable  
before scanning any programming tags.

NCR RealScan 7883 Installation and Owner Guide  
Programming for USB Connection  
The RealScan 7883 Scanner must be properly programmed for USB. Programming and cabling depends on whether the  
unit is a 7883-1000 or 7883-1200. The 7883-1000 uses the USB Dongle connection to the host terminal while the 7883-  
1200 uses a straight through cable. The programming also depends on the type of host terminal being used.  
RS-232 Communications  
The 7883-1000 communicates with the USB dongle using RS-232. Therefore, the 7883-1000 uses standard RS-232  
communications (1 0 5). The RealScan 7883-1200 Scanner outputs USB and uses a cable which connects directly to the  
terminal. It must be programmed for NCR/232- USB. Other parameters may be set as required by the host terminal. Set  
the required program parameters by scanning the following sequence of programming tags. These must be the first tags  
scanned after supplying power to the unit.  
7883-1000  
1. Default – sets all parameters to standard default values.  
2. Programming Mode – puts scanner in base programming state.  
3. Hex 1, Hex 0, Hex 5 – sets the required RS-232 programming parameters.  
RS-232 communications protocol  
9600 baud  
Odd parity  
1 stop bit, 7-bit character  
4. Change any other parameters as required by the host terminal.  
5. Save and Reset – saves the program just entered and resets the scanner.  
7883-1200  
1. Default – sets all parameters to standard default values.  
2. Programming Mode – puts scanner in base programming state.  
3. Hex 1, Hex 0, Hex E, Hex 0 – sets the required NCR/232 USB programming  
parameters.  
4. Change any other parameters as required by the host terminal.  
5. Save and Reset – saves the program just entered and resets the scanner.  
The host terminal software may now be configured to use the communication port assigned by the IO Networks driver in  
the terminal when the connection is made to USB. Note that it is required to obtain the IO Networks software which is  
available from the NCR website.  
IBM Communications  
The host terminal should assign the port and associate the scanner with the application when the USB connection is made.  
When programming a RealScan 7883 for IBM USB communications, all parameters are set to the standard default values,  
and the communications protocol is set to IBM USB. This is accomplished by scanning the following sequence of  
programming tags. These must be the first tags scanned after supplying power to the unit. Note that both the 7883-1000  
and 7883-1200 use the same programming sequences. However, the 7883-1000 must use a USB dongle, while the 7883-  
1200 uses a USB cable. The jumper in the USB Dongle for 7883-1000 scanners must also be jumpered for IBM (See  
figure above).  
7883-1000 and 7883-1200  
1. Default - sets all parameters to standard default values.  
2. Programming Mode tag - puts scanner in base programming state.

6. Save and Reset – saves the parameters just entered and resets the RealScan 7883  
Scanner  
Reduced Space Symbology  
Reduced Space Symbology (RSS) permits more data to be recorded in a smaller physical space. This is accomplished by  
encoding the data in large symbol characters rather than encoding each data character separately. Also, no quiet zone is  
required around the symbols. The RealScan 7883 can read four types of RSS bar codes.  
RSS14  
RSS-14 is a linear symbology that encodes 14 UCC/EAN digits. This structure provides four segments that can be scanned  
and decoded separately, then reconstructed. The total symbol contains 96 modules combined into 46 elements (bars and  
spaces).  
0100012345678905  
19254  
RSS-14 Stacked  
RSS-14 Stacked is a 2-row format. The bottom row is higher than the top row and the two are separated with a separator  
pattern. The stacked format is used when not enough linear space is available. A typical use is marking produce in a  
grocery store.  
0100991234567899  
19255  
RSS Expanded  
RSS Expanded is a variable length linear symbology. It can encode 74 numeric or 41 alpha characters. RSS Expanded can  
be scanned and decoded in up to 22 segments and then reconstructed.  
9987 6543 2101 2345 6789 8888  
19256  
RSS Expanded Stacked  
RSS Expanded Stacked is similar to RSS-14 Stacked except it uses the RSS Expanded format for creating the symbol.

of programming tags. These must be the first tags scanned after applying power to  
the unit.  
Programming Mode - Puts the RealScan 7883 in the Programming Mode.  
Hex 1, Hex 8, Hex A, Hex 3.  
Save and Reset - Saves the parameter setting.  
Disabling RSS  
1. Turn on the circuit breaker to the RealScan 7883.  
2. Enable the Reduced Space Symbology feature by scanning the following sequence  
of programming tags. These must be the first tags scanned after applying power to  
the unit.  
Programming Mode - Puts the RealScan 7883 in the Programming Mode.  
Hex 1, Hex 8, Hex A, Hex 0.  
Save and Reset - Saves the parameter setting.  
Making Other Program Changes  
If you still need to make program changes after setting the communication parameters, you can enter information directly  
from the Programming Worksheets. The Programming Worksheets, located at the back of this book, identify all the  
available program parameters. Each worksheet relates to a specific programming mode. Most programming options have  
defaults, identified by a heavy box, that are determined at the factory. Scanning the Default tag as the first tag after  
applying power to the RealScan 7883 sets the parameters to these values.  
Changing the RealScan 7883 program is accomplished by scanning the proper sequence of programming tags, which are  
included with the unit. Following are three major steps for making program changes.  
1. Enter the Base Programming State by scanning the Programming Mode tag as the  
first tag after applying power to the RealScan 7883.  
2. Select a Programming Worksheet and enter its parameter data by scanning the  
appropriate Hex tags.  
3. Save the program by scanning the Save and Reset tag.  
Note: In most instances 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, then make any necessary changes to  
the appropriate parameters.

Scan Sample Tags  
Now you should scan some sample tags to verify that the RealScan 7883 is communicating with the host terminal.  
Following are four good tags that you can use. After verifying that the RealScan 7883 is communicating properly with the  
host terminal, continue with the installation.  
Note: For maximum performance, full size labels must be used. The UPC Symbol Specification Manual gives the exact  
size requirements for UPC labels. If the bar height is less than specified, more precise presentation to the scanner is  
required, reducing productivity.

Determining Label Quality  
Many labels in a typical retail environment are unreadable. The following illustration shows some of the common  
problems. Vendors and printers regularly supply products to the market with bar codes that are overprinted, underprinted,  
or truncated. Some labels have missing margins. Others may be printed around the corners of packages, or on media not  
likely to remain flat when picked up.

The readability of a label depends on variables such as size, placement, color, paper type, ink viscosity, and package  
coatings. The middle of a printing run can yield erroneous labels due to the many variants involved. In particular, poor  
color contrast and marginal print quality can make a label hard to read.

Step 4 - Mounting the RealScan 7883  
The RealScan 7883 can sit vertically on the checkstand, be mounted vertically in a Vertical Mounting Bracket, or be  
mounted horizontally in the checkstand. If it is mounted horizontally in the checkstand, it must be fastened to a Plastic Top  
Plate, or possibly be positioned underneath a glass surface. The plastic scan window in the RealScan 7883 cabinet is not  
designed to have items slid over it.  
Note: Improper installation can void the warranty.  
Rubber Feet  
The NCR RealScan 7883 Scanner is supplied with rubber feet that can be attached to the sides of the cabinet. This permits  
the scanner to sit on the checkstand in a vertical position without being mounted to the Vertical Mounting Bracket. There  
are round recesses in each side of the cabinet that accept the rubber feet. Remove the paper backing from the rubber feet  
and stick them to the cabinet in the round recesses.  
Plastic Top Plate  
Your installation may use a Plastic Top Plate. Make sure no rubber feet are attached to the cabinet.  
1. Properly align the scanner with the Plastic Top Plate.  
2. Fasten the scanner to the Top Plate making sure that all four latches are securely  
latched around the scanner.

Operating the Scanner  
The NCR RealScan 7883 is a fixed position device that is not handled or moved by the operator during operation. It is  
maintained and serviced by trained service personnel only. The operator has no access to any laser module components.  
The RealScan 7883 does not have a power switch. However, you turn it on and off by using the circuit breaker switch,  
located in the checkstand, that supplies power to the unit. Be sure this switch is in the On position.  
The Red Indicator is on when the RealScan 7883 is ready. When the scanner reads a bar code, the Red Indicator turns off  
and the Green Indicator turns on. Nothing happens if the bar code is not read. The correct way to do pass-by scanning is to  
just slide the item past the scan window without lifting the item. With presentation scanning, you lift the item, move it  
straight toward the scan window, then bring the item back away from the scanner.

Cleaning the Scanner  
Keeping the scan windows clean helps keep the read rate exceptionally high. During normal operation the scan windows  
get dirty, and if you permit the dirt to accumulate, performance degrades to the point where the scanner cannot read bar  
codes. Use a soft cloth to clean the scan windows, using a common, non-abrasive, liquid window cleaner. Be sure to spray  
the cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the scanner.

Correcting Scanner Problems  
When the RealScan 7883 is first turned on, several diagnostic tests are run to check the status of various components. If a  
failure occurs, a series of beeps and flashes of the Green Status Indicator identify it. The number of beeps (flashes)  
identifies the problem. The problem indication is repeated continuously with a 3-second pause between each indication  
series. Following the first problem indication, the beeps are turned off and only the Green Status Indicator flashes to  
identify the problem.  
If the diagnostics identify a problem, you must have the scanner repaired. Refer to Obtaining Technical Assistance on

Communications Protocol  
The Communications Protocol function identifies the communications protocol the RealScan 7883 is using. Scan the  
Diagnostics Mode and Hex 3 programming tags (must be first tags scanned after applying power). Three beeps sound  
after scanning the Hex 3 tag, identifying the programming tag. Next, the Status Indicator flashes green and a series of  
beeps sound that identify the communications protocol. Use the following table to determine the communication protocol.

Ventilation Requirements  
The NCR RealScan 7883 is designed to operate without an exhaust fan in the checkstand; however, there must be  
adequate convection air flow. The ambient temperature inside the checkstand cannot be higher than 104° F (40° C). Also,  
the ambient temperature inside the checkstand cannot be higher than 12.6° F (7° C) above the ambient temperature outside  
the checkstand. For example, if the ambient temperature outside the checkstand is 76° F (24.4° C), the ambient  
temperature inside the checkstand cannot be greater than 88.6° F (31.4° C). 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 7883.

Troubleshooting  
For the most part, the function of each of the three units; scanner, scale, and deactivation unit; work independently from  
each other. However, there are some interactions. Following are some basic things to check if the system is not working  
properly. You may need to refer to the manufacturer's documentation for each unit.  
Scanner Problems  
If the scanner does not operate, check the following.  
Power Cable connections.  
Interface Cable connections.  
Red laser light is being generated.  
Spinner mirrors are rotating.  
Diagnostic failures (see Installation Guide).  
Scale Problems  
If scale is not weighing items properly, check the following.  
Scanner Power Cable connections.  
Scanner Interface Cable connections.  
Scale Cable connection to the RealScan 7883.  
Program RealScan 7883 to enable scale by scanning the following sequence of tags  
Programming Mode, Hex 3, Hex 0, Hex 3, Save and Reset.  
If the scale is still not weighing items properly, perform the following.  
1. Remove all items from the Top Plate.  
2. Scan the Reset Scale tag – Scale should read 0.00.  
3. Put some weight on the Top Plate – Scale should read some weight (not 0.00).  
4. Remove all items from the Top Plate – Scale should read 0.00.  
5. Remove the Top Plate.  
6. Remove any debris from the scale mechanism or Top Plate posts.  
The 7883-1200 will speak providing additional information about the condition of the  
scale. Insure the following: all cables are connected, power is applied only to the  
scanner as the scanner provides power to the scale, scale reads 0.00 lb or 0.000 kg upon  
powerup.  
If it suspected that the switch settings for the scale are not correct, below are the settings  
for the Mettler Toledo 8217 Scale when connected to an NCR RealScan 7883.  
With RS-232 cover (bottom of unit) removed the switches are exposed. Looking at the  
switches with the connector to the RS-232 9-pin DIN connector on your right the two  
banks of switches should be set as follows (Consult Mettler Toledo 8217 Scale Technical  
Manual and Parts Catalog) :  
Switch on left  
Positions 1,6,7,8 Down  
Positions 2,3,4,5 Up  
Switch on right (next to connector)
