Voice Volume
To change the volume of the voice (speech) on the 7893, scan the following tags.

Program Mode, Hex 5, Hex 7, Hex 0, Save and Reset —Maximum voice volume

Program Mode, Hex 5, Hex 7, Hex 1, Save and Reset —High voice volume

Program Mode, Hex 5, Hex 7, Hex 2, Save and Reset —Medium voice volume

Program Mode, Hex 5, Hex 7, Hex 3, Save and Reset —Minimum voice volume
Volume Levels
There are eight standard volume settings in the 7893. However, there is a programming
sequence which activates eleven. This gives the operator greater flexibility in selecting the
appropriate volume of the Good read Tone. This parameter does not have a default value,
however, the 7893 is shipped from the factory with this parameter disabled. The default setting
of the 7893 is eight volume levels.

Enable— Program Mode, Hex 4, Hex 2, Hex 5, and Save and Reset

Disable— Program Mode, Hex 4, Hex 2, Hex 4, and Save and Reset
Single Volume Adjust Bar Code
There is a single Volume Adjustment bar code in the Programming Tag booklet, NCR Scanner
Programming Tags (BST0–2121–74) available at
www.info.ncr.com . (The tags are also
included in Appendix B of this document.). The volume obtained by using this bar code is
temporary. That is, if used outside a Program Mode/Save & Reset sequence, the original
programmed volume level will return when the scanner is power cycled. But if the Volume
Adjustment bar code is scanned within a Program Mode/Save&Reset sequence, or the Reset
bar code from the booklet is scanned, the volume is saved as if it had been changed by using
Worksheet 11.
Firmware Flashing
Firmware flashing permits updates to be installed to the scanner firmware without replacing
the actual chip on the Digital Board. The 7893 must be connected to a PC through an RS-232
or USB cable. The PC must also contain the Flash Tool software utility and the new scanner
firmware file. The cables which can be used for flashing the 7893 are:

USB

RS-232
Obtaining the Tools and New Firmware
If you will be reflashing a number of scanners of varying ages, you should install the NCR
RealPOS Scanner Flash tool for Windows. All tools and firmware for the 7893 are available on
the NCR web site (www.ncr.com).
