NCR RealPOS Scanner Flash Drive Prep Tool
In order to minimize the need for a PC at the scanner site, The NCR RealPOS Scanner Flash
Drive Prep Tool preps a flash drive so that the scanner could understand its contents and
performs the tasks defined inside the device prepared by the host terminal software. This flash
drive could then be taken to each scanner to perform its tasks without changing anything on the
flash drive in between scanners.
All of the processes involved in setting communication parameters and running applications is
replaced by a single flash drive properly configured by the NCR RealPOS Scanner Flash Drive
Prep Tool application. The application provides a user interface that displays the options the
user can select for their scanners and then prepare the flash drive accordingly.
Scanner Cloning using Programming Tags
The scanner provides some programming sequences that permit you to clone a unit if the
RealPOS Scanner Flash Drive Prep Tool was not run before going to the installation site. This
requires programming tags.
To clone the scanner parameters with programming tags, perform these steps:
1.
Bringaflashdrivebeforegoingtothesite.
2.
Selectthescanneryouwanttoclone.
3.
Performpowercycleonthescanner.
OR
ScantheRESETprogrammingtag.
4.
Tosetuptheflashdrive,useanyofthethreesequences:

PROGRAM MODE->HEX 7->HEX F->HEX C

This sequence clones the firmware and parameters.

PROGRAM MODE->HEX 7->HEX F->HEX D

This sequence clones Firmware only.

PROGRAM MODE->HEX 7->HEX F->HEX E

This sequence clones Parameters only.
