NCR 7882 Scanner Mountings NCR 7882 Scanner The NCR 7882 Scanner is a small, compact laser scanner with many of the same features as the larger scanners. It can be mounted horizontally in a checkstand or vertically above the checkstand. Various mounts are available for the 7882.
After verifying that everything is working correctly, mount the unit in the checkstand. If the NCR 7882 does not work properly, refer to the problem correcting section in this document: Correcting Scanner Problems.
Interface Cables Connecting the Cables to an NCR 7882 Scanner The NCR 7882 can be powered through a wall adapter Power Supply (shown in the following illustration) or directly from the host terminal. The NCR 7882 automatically detects which power source is being used. In either case, the input voltage to the NCR 7882 should be +12Vdc.

Code 39 Prefix Character Interleaved 2 of 5 Prefix Character Note – ASCII data cannot be sent from the auxiliary RS-232 port when the NCR 7882 is set for OCIA Short format. In this case, the 7882 generates an error beep.
If the Interface Cable is provided as a kit rather than being included with the 7882, you can set the communication parameters by scanning the bar code on the label on the cable package.
7882 Scanner Installation and Owner Guide Programming Defaults Scanning the Default programming tag sets most program parameters to factory defined values as shown in the following chart. However, some parameters do not have default values so they are not changed, they stay as they are programmed.

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 7882 sets the parameters to these values.
7882 Scanner Installation and Owner Guide Scan Sample Tags Now you should scan some sample tags to verify that the 7882 is communicating with the host terminal. Following are four good tags that you can use. After verifying that the 7882 is communicating properly with the host terminal, continue with the installation.
7882 Scanner Installation and Owner Guide 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.
7882 Scanner Installation and Owner Guide Step 3 - Setting 7882 Scan Zone The scan zone on a 7882 Scanner can be set to horizontal or vertical. Changing the scan zone changes the angle of the scan lines coming from the scanner.
Page 18
7882 Scanner Installation and Owner Guide Horizontal - Pass-by Scanning This installation provides the most efficient way to scan items. It is typically used in checkouts where speed is extremely important. In this installation, the operator slides items from the input area on the checkstand, across the scanner, and to the output area on the checkstand.
Page 19
7882 Scanner Installation and Owner Guide Vertical - Presentation Scanning from Top This installation is used on small checkout counters that do not have enough room for pass-by scanning. Here the operator picks up the item, presents it toward the top of the scanner, then bags the item all in one motion.
Step 4 - Mounting the 7882 Rubber Feet The NCR 7882 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.

Specifications show the various dimensions of the hole. 2. Align the 7882 to the Checkstand. The leading edge of the Top Plate must be flush or up to 1/16 in. (0.15 cm) below the top of the checkstand. The trailing edge of the Top Plate must be flush or up to 1/16 in.
The 7882 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.
7882 Scanner Installation and Owner Guide 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.
7882 Scanner Installation and Owner Guide Correcting Scanner Problems When the NCR 7882 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.
