Operating the Scanner
The RealScan 7872 is a fixed position device that is installed in a checkout counter. It is
not handled or moved by the operator during operation. The RealScan 7872 is
maintained and serviced by trained service personnel only. The operator has no access
to any laser module components.
The RealScan 7872 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. The Status Indicator on the Operator
Display Panel is Red when the RealScan 7872 is ready. The correct way to scan is to slide
an item from the checkstand, across the scanner, and back onto the checkstand.

With a good scan, the Status Indicator Flashes Green, then turns Red. An audible tone
will also be heard. Nothing happens if the bar code is not read.
