Scale Parameters

The Scale Parameters programming mode controls specific parameters associated with the NCR 7870-2000, 4000, 4500 Scales. You can use it to identify if the NCR 7870 includes a scale, and to define the address if the scale is connected to an IBM terminal.

Specific Program Parameters

Model Number

The Model Number parameter specifies if your unit is an NCR 7870- 1000/3000 Scanner or an NCR 7870-2000, 4000, or 4500 Scanner/Scale. This parameter is set at the factory and should not need changing under normal circumstances. Scan the Hex 3 tag to specify that the unit is an NCR 7875-2000, 4000, or 4500 (scanner and scale), or scan the Hex 4 tag to specify the unit as being an NCR 7875-1000 or 3000 (scanner only). If you disable the scale on an NCR Scanner/Scale unit by scanning the Hex 4 tag, the BCC option also changes to the appropriate state.

IBM Address

When programming an NCR 7870-2000, 4000, or 4500 Scanner/Scale for IBM communications, you must select the proper scale communications address. Selecting the IBM 468x communications
