Chapter 3 – Installing the
Software
The
SetupServer
program on the CD-ROM must be run on your Windows network
server to create a specific RealScan 7802 directory called
POS
on your servers’ hard
disk, share it and copy the default realscan.ini file into this directory. RealScan 7802
units look for this .ini file in the POS directory when they boot up and can not operate if
they can’t find it.
You should also install
Unit Configuration
on the server as it provides the easiest way to
change the configuration of a unit on the network (as opposed to scanning barcodes).
You may also install
Unit Configuration
on a desktop or laptop computer for initially
setting up RealScan 7802 units without a network complicating it. You need a network
interface card (NIC) installed in your PC and configured properly to communicate with
the RealScan 7802.
For servers that are running other than Windows, sources are provided for the server
software. There are also freely available drivers to permit any operating system to act as
a Windows-type server.
Important: The shared RealScan 7802 directory and the realscan.ini file must be on the
server and the RealScan 7802 units must be able to find them when they power up. If
you want to change the operating modes (or configuration) of a specific unit anytime
after the system is up and running, the Unit Configuration program is available in the
NCR directory.
Server Install
When you place the NCR SDK CD-ROM (NCR part number 497-0426202) into a drive,
the autoplay feature opens a window with the folders and program icons. Click on the
NCR icon
SetupServer
and the install program leads you step by step through the
process of creating the
POS
directory, sharing it, and copying the realscan.ini file into
the directory.
Server install also creates a font directory under
POS
and loads all the fonts on the CD-
ROM into this directory. The RealScan 7802 has one default font set programmed into
the unit. This is a 16x32 pixel glyph containing all 256 characters of the extended ASCII
character set – thus any Latin based language can be supported from this font set.
Unit Configuration
Click on the NCR icon
UnitConfig
in the SDK CD-ROM window and the
Unit
Configuration
program is installed. This program which consists entirely of the one
screen shown in the section on using
Unit Configuration
, implements the specific set of
commands and controls defined in the API for the RealScan 7802 (see
Interfacing to the
Back Office Server
). The program is written in Visual Basic® and the sources and an OCX
are provided on the CD-ROM so users can write directly to this program and make
initiate mode changes from their application program
