Chapter 4 – Network
Configuration
Introduction
The RealScan 7802 is a network-connected device that uses industry standard TCP/IP
protocols for communication. Connecting a RealScan 7802 to your network requires the
same kind of preparation as connecting a workstation to your network. This manual
assumes you know how to obtain the relevant information about your existing network
configuration and choose the appropriate configuration parameters so your network
recognizes RealScan 7802 devices. NCR suggests using switches rather than hubs to
connect to RealScan 7802 units as the bandwidth and response time is improved.
The RealScan 7802 has two primary activities – displaying product price and description
and displaying a graphics slideshow. The unit has two primary modes of operation: an
idle mode where a slideshow from 2 to 150 sequential images is continuously displayed,
and a interactive mode where a customer scans an item and price and description
information is returned by the host server. The four buttons on the front panel can be
configured to only be active when in the interactive mode. In order to display product
information, the RealScan 7802 must connect to a host computer that has the product
information stored in its database.
If you are using an MS Windows network, NCR highly recommends Windows NT,
2000, XP, or ME. Windows 95 and 98 can be used as a server for the RealScan 7802, but
they are not supported. NT 4 Server and Windows 2000 provide the best performance in
terms of response speed, especially if you are using a RF wireless system rather than
hardwired Ethernet (10/100baseT).
Network Activity
The RealScan 7802 includes servers for FTP (port 21), ProductInfo (port 1283), and
clients for FTP, SMB (Windows networking), ProductInfo (Product Information
Protocol) and QFX (Quick File eXchange). FTP, SMB or QFX can be used to get the
graphics files for the RealScan 7802’s slideshow. SMB is the default mode.
The RealScan 7802 ships from the factory with the following default network settings.
IP Address:
DHCP (10.0.0.227 – some hard-wired models)

The RealScan 7802 requires a file server for storing graphics files and a ProductInfo
server (host or back office computer) the price/description database. These servers may
(but do not have to be) the same physical computer. The file server must have the The
RealScan 7802 initialization file (realscan.ini) in its
POS
shared directory (if SBM-based)
or the default directory for FTP or QFX, and may also have font, graphic, and slideshow
