Chapter 6: Operation 6-3

Motion Detector

The Motion Detector is used to detect operator inactivity and power down critical components of the NCR 7870 to reduce wear and extend product operational life

Reset / Scale Zero Button

This button is used to

•re-zero the scale if not performed automatically,

•set a tare weight, and

•awaken the unit from Sleep Mode.

Audible Tone

A tone can be programmed to sound to indicate a successful bar code read. This may be easier for the checker than watching the Status Indicators. The tone’s frequency, volume, and duration can also be set via programming. The NCR 7870 comes from the factory with the tone enabled.

See Chapter 7: Programming for more information on the Good Read programming parameter.
