[or better] colors) is provided by a CRT 15-pin D-shell connector.
The LCD brightness is software controlled. The terminal does not have
hardware controls for brightness or contrast.
The LCD back lighting is also software controlled. In addition to OFF
and ON modes, a dimmed mode is supported in the hardware to permit
increased tube life. If appropriate software drivers are loaded, full
brightness is restored when touched, motion detection (Motion Sensor
section), or an application request (i.e., to play promotional material on
a preset schedule).
Dual Displays
The Summa POS Motherboard is dual display (LCD and CRT) capable.
In a dual display environment the 7454 terminal supports 16-bit color
when both displays are connected to the motherboard. Both displays
must have the same maximum resolution capability. Refer to the
following information for details about the implementation of a dual
display configuration.

Ethernet 10/100Base-T LAN Communications
The terminal contains a 10/100Base-T Ethernet PCI connection.
Ethernet 100Base-T is also known as Fast Ethernet. The Boot ROM for
diskless boot functionality is included in the 1 MB system ROM. The
hardware is compatible with the TCP/IP, DHCP, and TFTP protocols
required for remote boot of the platform. Appropriate software must
be used to enable each protocol used over the Ethernet link.
The terminal may be connected to either a 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps
Ethernet connection. The hardware automatically selects the correct
speed (if enabled by software to do so).
The LAN hardware supports wakeup packet capability as defined in
the Device Class Power Management Specification, Network Device
®
Class (available from the Microsoft Web site).
When the platform is in the Soft OFF state (refer to Advanced Power
Management section that follows), receipt of a Wakeup Packet on the
LAN can return the system to the ON state, if this feature is enabled by
software.
Note: Due to limitations of the LAN controller and the OS, all features
described in the Network Device Class specification may not be
available.

Chapter 1: Product Overview

1-11

100Base-T is wired identically to 10Base-T, except that the twisted pair
cable must be Category 5 and the hubs must permit 100 or 10/100
Mbps operation. Although 10Base-T will operate on Category 3 twisted
pair, or NCR “747” cable, an upgrade to Category 5 is required for
100Base-T.
A customer desiring to use the terminal in an existing 10Base-T
environment can do so and simply run at 10 MB. In order to upgrade to
100Mbps, Category 5 cable and 100 or 10/100 hubs must be installed.
NCR strongly recommends the use of Category 5 for all new cabling,
even if the customer initially intends to run only 10Base-T.
LED Indicators for Link Integrity (verifies cable and hub connection are
good) and LAN speed is provided on the Processor Board near the row
of connectors at the bottom of the e-box. The LED is ON (yellow) when
the speed is running at 100 Mbps.
Link Integrity is provided to the PC chipset to permit boot-up software
to verify the presence of the LAN connection. Software must provide 2
seconds after power-up in order for the Link Integrity signal to become
valid.

Wireless LAN Communications
Where a wired Ethernet connection is not desired a wireless LAN
adapter may be installed in the PCMCIA socket. This requires that the
PCMCIA daughter-card feature be installed. A wireless LAN used in
the terminal must meet the following requirements:
•

Integrated antenna that meets the requirements of PCMCIA (PC
Card) Extended Type 2 card definition (a maximum of 5-cm
additional length).

•

Power consumption within the capabilities of the PCMCIA
daughter-card.

•

Signaling requirements within the capabilities of the terminal
PCMCIA interface. The main restriction is that DMA transactions
are not supported over the PCMCIA interface.

•

Device drivers for the targeted operating system must exist.

1-12

Chapter 1: Product Overview

•

Appropriate infrastructure (server support, Base Stations, Ceiling
Antennas, etc) must be present in the installation site, and the
maximum RF range of the wireless system must not be exceeded.

Interoperability - While the 802.11 standard provides an interoperable
protocol definition, there are vendor-specific extensions to the protocol
that encourage users to stay with one supplier’s equipment. This also
applies to wireless infrastructure and access points, 802.11 does not
govern this operation. Mixing of RF suppliers on a site is not
recommended until the RF suppliers have demonstrated
interoperability.
The wireless networks operate at speeds of 1-11 Mbps with 2 percent
packet loss typical. The application developer must be aware of the
performance limitations and design applications that are acceptable to
the customer when run over the slower network.
Remote Wakeup over the wireless network is not possible because the
cards do not support it. An alternative is to use the system real-time
clock wake up at a scheduled time.
Depending on the OS environment, Remote Boot may be supported,
but due to the slow network speed a large boot image may take an
unacceptably long time to load. The application developer needs to
ensure that the load is of reasonable size.
The wired Ethernet connection is not certified for use in configurations
where a wireless adapter is installed.

Universal Serial Bus
The Summa POS Motherboard provides three ports, one of which is
reserved for integrated devices (not externally accessible). Only two of
the three USB ports on the Summa POS Motherboard can be active at
the same time. If the internal auxiliary USB port is enabled, one of the
two ports on the main connector row becomes disabled. This
functionality is controlled through the BIOS setup menu.
Note: USB peripherals require support from the operating system,
which is currently limited to Windows 98.

Chapter 1: Product Overview

1-13

Serial Ports
The Summa POS Motherboard provides two RS-232 ports (9-pin Dshell connectors, Ports 1 and 2) directly on the Motherboard and
supports two additional RS-232 ports. Ports 3 and 4 require an optional
harness connection to the Motherboard. Ports 1 and 3 can be supplied
with +12 V DC on Pin 9 when properly set up in the BIOS. The total
power drawn by Ports 1 and/or 3 must be no greater than 1 amp at +12
V DC. Refer to the following table for RS-232 pinout information.
The BIOS provides flexibility in mapping resources. However, a fullyloaded system (2 PCMCIA cards that require IRQs, four serial ports in
use, USB in use, parallel port in use, and MSR) may not have enough
available IRQs to support all serial ports. Use a USB serial port
expander to overcome this PC architecture limitation.

Hardware Monitor
The hardware monitor generates an interrupt to the system whenever
any of the internal voltages used by the system processor goes above or
below the acceptable operating range. An interrupt is also generated
when the temperature of the Processor exceeds safe levels. Software
can use this indication to slow or stop the system and/or force a reset.

1-14

Chapter 1: Product Overview

PCI Expansion Header
A single expansion header is provided to support optional features,
such as the PCMCIA for Wireless LAN Board. This board supports two
Type 2 or one Type 3 PCMCIA type cards.

IDE Header
A standard IDE header is provided to support the 2.5" hard disk drive
or the 64 MB and 256 MB compact flash.

Audio
The base unit has Sound Blaster-compatible audio. Wave table
synthesis is not supported. FM synthesis and MIDI are supported in
the hardware, but requires software driver support to function.
Higher quality integrated stereo speakers may be added as an option to
the terminal. The amplifier is located on the Processor Board; the
speaker output is provided on a header that receives the harness from
the speaker module. In addition, a Line Out is provided on a 3.5mm
stereo jack that permits connection of external amplified speakers.
The integrated stereo speakers, or an amplifier connected to Line Out,
must be used in order to play Sound Blaster (audio subsystem) audio.
However, an internal EUI speaker provides PC speaker functionality
(beeps and tones) for all configurations.
The volume control can be set during system configuration.
The PC speaker sounds (such as beeps and touch clicks) are directed
into the audio subsystem and are audible if speakers are connected.

Magnetic Stripe Reader
A 3-track MSR head is available as an option. The ISO and JIS card
format is supported.
When card data is read, an interrupt is generated. A software device
driver for the MSR must be loaded to enable the application to process
the data.

Chapter 1: Product Overview

Touch Screen Controller
The MicroTouch® “Excalibur” chip is used to interface the touch panel.
This controller supports MicroTouch capacitive panels.
In order to save an RS-232 port, the touch data is delivered to the
system through the mouse interface. This requires a mouse-aware
touch device driver for the appropriate OS.
When the system is operating in the dimmed display mode, touch
activity can restore full brightness if instructed by software to do so.
When system is in low power mode, touch activity can generate the
mouse port interrupt (IRQ12).
The Summa POS Motherboard supports the following touch screen
LCDs;
•

64MB compact flash is large enough to support a Windows CE load.
The 256MB compact flash can be used in a Windows XP embedded
environment. When using the Windows XP embedded OS, an
additional 128MB SDRAM SODIMM is required to support the
necessary virtual memory requirements.

NCR Retail Specific Hardware
The Processor Board contains logic that provides support for the
custom retail interface. The logic controls the following features:
•

Dual Cash Drawer Support

•

Cash Drawer Diagnostic Support

•

Magnetic Stripe Reader Interface

•

Motion Detector

•

Touch Screen Interface

An integrated retail specific feature of the processor is the cash drawer
circuitry. The onboard circuitry internal to the board provides the
control for two external cash drawers. A portion of the POS Board
header (J6) is provided on the board to interface to the dual cash
drawer connector. Header J6 only contains the control signals; it does
not provide power. Software controls the cash drawer(s) through I/O
port 00Exh. This means it can be I/O ports E0/E1h, E2/E3h, E4/E5h,
or EA/EBh depending on the configuration of the SMC I/O
controller’s GPIO port(s). Default setting is E0/E1h.

The cash drawer interface can be diagnosed remotely. For security
reasons, the cash drawer diagnostics mode must first be activated by
pressing an external momentary switch (SW2). The intention is for
authorized personnel to be present when the cash drawer diagnostic
tests take place.
There is only one cash drawer status signal; therefore, bit 0 is the status
of either cash drawer or both cash drawers.
Power LED
The Processor Board provides support for an external power LED
through the onboard Motion/Power LED connector. This LED is
controlled through the SMC 37C935 GPIO pins. Once the SMC chip is
programmed to support the Power LED function on GPIO pin 13, the
LED is turned “on” anytime all power to the Processor Board is good.
The system’s power management software has the option to turn the
LED off indicating the system is in a power-managed mode.

1-18

Chapter 1: Product Overview

MSR
The MSR interface supports a maximum of 3 tracks of magnetic stripe
information for support of ISO or JIS format cards. Activate the MSR
interface by enabling it in BIOS Setup under IO Configuration. The
MSR interface controller is a memory-mapped device, which can reside
at system memory addresses CA000, CC000, or D0000. If MSR
capability is not desired, it may be disabled through BIOS Setup.

Board BIOS
The Processor Board uses a Phoenix BIOS, which is stored in Flash
ROM and easily upgraded through the network connection or serial
port. The Flash EEPROM also contains the Setup utility, Power-On Self
Tests (POST), and APM 1.2. The board also supports system BIOS
shadowing, which enables the BIOS to execute from onboard writeprotected DRAM.
The BIOS displays a sign-on message during POST identifying the type
of BIOS and a five-digit revision code.
FLASH memory Implementation
The Intel E28F800B5-T70 Flash component is organized onboard as
1024 K x 8 (1 MB). While a typical PC BIOS image including video and
LAN boot ROM code normally fits in 256 K on the Pentium Board and
512 K in the Pentium III/Celeron board, the boards support a 1 MB
flash ROM. The current Phoenix BIOS release only requires 256 K of
this 1 MB total. The Flash device contains the PC System BIOS along
with the Video BIOS and LAN boot ROM which compresses the ROM
images into a single binary image.
The Flash device is divided into four areas, as described below.

BIOS Upgrades
Flash memory makes distributing BIOS upgrades easy. A new version
of the BIOS can be installed from the hard disk, network or through a
serial port.
The disk-based Flash upgrade utility, PHLASH.EXE, ensures the
upgrade BIOS extension matches the target system to prevent
accidentally installing a BIOS for a different type of system.
Setup Utility
The ROM-based Setup utility permits the system configuration to be
modified without opening the system for most basic changes. The
Setup utility is accessible only during the Power-On Self Test (POST)
by pressing the  key after the POST memory test has begun and
before boot begins. A prompt may be enabled that informs users to
press the  key to access Setup.
Note: An external alphanumeric keyboard is recommended for
running the BIOS CMOS Setup Utility. Otherwise, a Touch Screen can
be used.
Plug and Play
The Processor BIOS also has a setup option to support the Windows
runtime plug and play utilities. When this option is selected, only
devices critical to boot are assigned resources by the BIOS. Device
Node information is available for all devices to ensure compatibility
with Windows 95. System configuration information is stored in ESCD
format. The ESCD data is cleared upon loss of the CMOS voltage.
Advanced Power Management
The Processor BIOS has support for both 1.1 and 1.2 Advanced Power
Management (APM). The version of APM drivers loaded in the
operating system by the user determines what specification the BIOS
adheres too. In either case the energy saving Standby mode can be
initiated by a keyboard hot key sequence or a time-out period set by
the user.

1-20

Chapter 1: Product Overview

When in Stand-by mode, the Processor Board reduces power
consumption by utilizing the processor System Management Mode
(SMM) capabilities and also spinning down hard drives and turning off
VESA DPMS compliant monitors. During setup, the user may select
which DPMS mode (Stand By, Suspend, or Off) is sent to the monitor.
The ability to respond to external interrupts is fully maintained while
in Stand-by mode enabling the system to service requests such as incoming data or network messages while unattended. The user may
also select any keyboard or mouse activity to take the system out of the
energy saving Standby mode. When this occurs, the monitor and IDE
drives are turned back on immediately.
APM is disabled in BIOS by default; therefore, the user must enable
this feature. The system must be configured with an APM driver in
order for the system power saving features to take effect.

Contrast control is set by software, using a digital potentiometer on the
Processor Board. The terminal does not have a user-accessible contrast
adjustment. Software can set a default value after reading the Panel ID.
Display contrast changes with temperature.

LCD Adapter Board
The signals from the LCD header on the Processor Board are brought
to the LCD on a harness. Since there are multiple pin configurations
and connector types being used on the LCD, a small adapter board is
used to receive the LCD harness and map the signals into the correct
pinout for the LCD panel. This board has a connector that plugs
directly into the LCD panel.

LCD Backlight Inverter Module
An Inverter Board supplies power for the LCD Backlight, which is a
separate module in the terminal. The inverter has a connector that
receives power, ground, and a Backlight dimming signal from the
Processor Board. The inverter generates the high voltage necessary to
start and run dual CCFL Backlights.
A fuse located on the Inverter Board protects power to the inverter.
This fuse protects the system from damage in the event of a Backlight
or Inverter Board fault. The fuse is not field replaceable; if it blows, the
safety characteristics of one or more components on the Inverter Board
may have been compromised and the Inverter Board should be
replaced.
If one or both Backlight tubes become disconnected or otherwise opencircuited, protection circuitry shuts down the inverter. This avoids
over-powering a single tube and also protects against high voltage
shorting.

1-22

Chapter 1: Product Overview

Touch Screen
The Touch Screen completely covers the LCD and is mounted directly
in front of the LCD, behind the front plastic bezel of the terminal. The
touch controller on the Processor Board supports capacitive and
resistive touch glass.
The touch glass has an integrated harness that is routed into the
Processor Board enclosure and is connected to a header on the
Processor Board. The touch glass has a glare-reducing texture that also
helps hide fingerprints.

Power Supply
The terminal uses an AC adapter for its power supply, concealed in the
terminal mounting. The supply is inaccessible when the terminal is in
the normal operation and mounting position to prevent tampering, and
sealed to help protect against spills or other environmental hazards.
Note: The power supply automatically senses the proper AC voltage;
therefore only normal servicing access is required.
All power required to operate the base unit, PCMCIA option and
PCMCIA cards, speaker option, scanner option, and bus-powered USB
peripherals is provided by the power supply.
The Processor Board serves as the hub to distribute power to all

Introduction
The terminal is fully assembled at the factory. This chapter explains the
mounting options and how to connect optional hardware components
to the terminal.

Installation Summary
The terminal should be removed from the shipping packaging and
visual checks made to verify the correct hardware configuration. The
system is then configured and any communication cables are
connected.
Only after inspection should the power cord be attached to the system
and then connected to the AC power source. Power-up self-tests will
run to verify basic functionality.
ROM-based setup should be used to configure network options. Full
configuration depends upon the system server and the management
Web site.

Do not permit any object to rest on the power cord. Do not locate
the terminal where the power cord can be walked on.

•

Use a grounding strap or touch a grounded metal object to
discharge any static electricity from your body before servicing the
terminal.

•

If the power cord is replaced, it must be replaced with the same
type of cord with the protective shroud.

•

Do not route the power cord through openings with sharp edges.

Caution: This unit contains hazardous voltages and should only be
serviced by qualified service personnel.
Caution: DO NOT connect or disconnect the transaction printer while
the terminal is connected to AC power. This can result in system or
printer damage.
Warning: The 7454 must be mounted securely to prevent a hazard. It
must be installed in accordance with local building codes. The post or
wall on which the unit is mounted should be able to withstand four
times the weight of the unit, which is approximately 20 lbs. (9 kg).

Routing the Cables
The 7454 has three places to secure cables to the base of the unit by
using a cable tie wrap. Remove the power supply cover or customer
display from the base of the unit, two thumb screws on bottom rear,
and use a tie wrap to secure the Ethernet cable to one of the provided
molded cable tie holders on the base. This should provide sufficient
strain relief to prevent the cable from becoming tight and damaging the
connector on the Processor Board.
The peripheral cables are routed down through the Mount Assembly
and out the rear of the unit.

Guidelines for Calibrating the Touch Screen
The following guidelines should be observed for calibrating the touch
screen.
•

Calibration should be done at time of installation

•

Recalibrate the touch screen when the system is installed at its final
location.

•

Recalibrate whenever the terminal is moved to a new location.

•

Recalibrate the touch screen anytime the system has been
disassembled for servicing.

•

Only use the Microcal (DOS) program, the Touchware Control
Panel (Windows), or Touchware icon on the Desktop (XPe) to
calibrate the touch screen.
Microcal:
a. Set the video resolution. Go to the Tools menu, Video. Select 800
x 600 256 colors.
b. Go to the Tools menu, select Calibrate.
Touchware Control Panel:
a. Go to the Calibrate tab and press Calibrate.

Calibration Procedure
The calibration program looks at where your finger is when you lift it
off the screen, not where you touch it. Therefore, calibrate the screen as
follows:
1. Touch the screen near the calibration target.
2. Keep your finger on the screen and slide it to the center of the
target.
3. Hold your finger firmly on the target for two seconds, then lift it off
quickly.

2-36

Chapter 2: Hardware Installation

4. Verify that the calibration was set accurately before making a
service call. Perform the calibration again if necessary.
•

If cursor is not stable, or false touches are suspected, run the Noise
Check Utility from the Touchware Control Panel (Windows) or
from the Microcal (DOS) program. Choose the recommended
frequency (the one with the lowest noise level). This should also be
done if the touch screen is still not calibrated after one attempt to
recalibrate it.
Microcal:
a. Set the video resolution. Go to the Tools menu, Video. Select
800 x 600 256 colors.
b. Go to the Tools menu, select Noise Check.
c. Follow the instruction prompts. Choose the frequency with the
lowest noise level.
Touchware Control Panel:
a. Go to the Cursor tab and press Stabilize Cursor.
b. Choose the recommended frequency.
•

The Edge Adjust should be turned off if using Windows.

Touchware Control Panel:
a. Go to the Cursor tab. Edge Adjustment should be turned off.
Application software can possibly generate a dialog box from the
Touch Driver, with the message that the touch screen needs to be recalibrated. If the screen appears to be working normally, then this
message can be ignored. There is a check box labeled, Do not show
this message again. Make sure this box is checked.

Chapter 2: Hardware Installation

2-37

Summary
If there is a touch screen calibration issue during or after installation,
take the following actions in the order listed:
1. Recalibrate.
2. If re-calibration is unsuccessful after two attempts, then run the
Noise check to change the frequency.
3. If you are still not able to calibrate, change the touch screen glass.
4. The final step is to replace the Processor Board. If this corrects the
problem, then the old glass is probably OK to reuse.

Out-of-Box Failures
The RSG-Atlanta Customer Satisfaction Hotline will replace out-of-box
failed hard disks with identical, preloaded drives. Once a system is
successfully installed, all disk contents are the responsibility of the
customer. The customer is responsible for restoring operating system
software and/or customer-specific data onto replacement disks sent to
repair a failed or damaged disk in the field. NCR provides recovery
tools for the operating system and platform software.

Chapter 3: Setup

Introduction
This chapter describes how to configure the BIOS CMOS options.
Following this Introduction, there are sections specific to Pentium
terminals and sections specific to Pentium III/Celeron terminals.
Note: An external alphanumeric keyboard is not required to run the
BIOS CMOS Setup Utility, but a keyboard makes the setup easier.

BIOS Versions
The Setup Menus in this chapter reference NCR 7401/7454 BIOS
Version 1.5.0.4 (Pentium) and NCR 7401/7452/7453/7454/7455 BIOS
Version 2.1.2.x (Pentium III).

Entering Setup Without a Keyboard
1. Apply power to the terminal.
2. Calibrate the touch screen.
a) When the screen prompt that says Touch the screen two times to
enter Setup appears, touch the screen three times. This causes
the system to bypass the BIOS Setup and go directly to the
Touch Screen Calibration Setup.
Note: Setup can also be entered from the Boot Menu that is
displayed when you press ESC during POST.
b) As instructed on the screen, touch the circle near the lower-left
corner of the screen. For best results, press the screen near the
circle and then slide your finger onto the circle without raising
your finger from the screen.

3-2

Chapter 3: Setup

c) Using the same method as above, touch the circle near the
upper-right corner of the screen.
You should receive a Successful Calibration message and then the
PhoenixBIOS Setup Utility should come up.
d) Select the setup parameters by touching the controls at the
bottom of the screen.

Entering Setup Using a Keyboard
1. Apply power to the terminal.
2. Press the F2 key when the message at the bottom of the screen
prompts you to do so.
Note: Setup can also be entered from the Boot Menu that is
displayed when you press ESC during POST.

How to Select Menu Options
The following keyboard controls are used to select the various menu
options and to make changes to their values.
•

Use the arrow keys to select (highlight) options and menu screens.

•

Use the + and - (or F5 and F6) keys to change field values.

•

To view help information on the possible selections for the
highlighted item, press F1.

•

To save the changes, move the cursor to the Exit Menu, select either
Save Changes & Exit or Save Changes, and press Enter.

Introduction
This chapter discusses procedures how to recover the Operating
System by using the parallel CD-ROM drive. The software is
distributed on bootable CD-ROM media. The drivers that are necessary
to run the CD-ROM are temporarily installed during boot.
It is also possible to perform a BIOS update using a network
connection. Refer to the NCR FitClient Software User's Guide for
information about that procedure.

Prerequisites
The following are required on the 7454 in order to perform an OS
recovery using a CD.
•

Bootable CD-ROM drive
•

•

The terminal BIOS must be 1.02.00.00 or greater.
•

•

External 2336-K007 (Parallel CD-ROM – Series 5 or Series 6)

MicroSolutions BackPack CD-ROM Series 6 requires BIOS
2.1.1.1 or greater

Keyboard

Caution: When performing an OS recovery from a larger source
image (larger disk) to a smaller destination disk you must use the
special procedure described in the OS Recovery from a Larger Disk Image
section that follows.

4-2

Chapter 4: Operating System Recovery

Updating Procedures
1. Connect the external CD-ROM (2336-K007) drive to the parallel
port on the terminal.
2. Connect the power connector to the CD-ROM drive.

Chapter 4: Operating System Recovery

14. Follow the DOS screen prompts. After each entry you are asked to
confirm your input. You can use 1 or y for Yes, 2 or n for No.
15. Enter whether or not you want to perform Disk verification.
(Answering Yes takes twice as long, but is recommended.)
If Yes is selected:
•

The Ghost® software verifies write operations and handles bad
FAT clusters.

•

The Ghost error file (GHOST.ERR) is displayed before
rebooting

If No is selected:
•

The Ghost error file is displayed before rebooting only if Ghost
aborts.
Caution: If the error file is displayed, the batch file pauses for
user input before rebooting. You may use Ctrl-C to cancel out of
the batch file if you want to see the error file again, but nothing
should be done that writes to the hard disk before rebooting.
GHOST.ERR is on the RAM disk and is lost on reboot.

16. Select which type of recovery you want to perform from the next
menu (normally option #1).
1) Redo entire disk with the first partition the same size.
2) Redo the first OS partition.
3) Redo the second OS partition.
The Ghost software then begins the disk recovery from the CD. It
displays a progress bar and gives you an estimate how long the
process should take.
When the recovery process is completed, the client hard disk is
restored to its preinstalled condition, as originally received from
the factory.
17. At the completion of the recovery process remove the CD and press
ENTER to reboot the terminal.

Chapter 4: Operating System Recovery

Gold Disk Contents
This section describes the contents of each of the Gold Disk Images,
including all the additions and changes that were made on top of the
generic operating system.
Important: For each operating system, NCR strongly recommends
that the drivers placed in the c:\install directory be left there for
the purposes of servicing and maintaining the system. If you are using
the information in this section to build your own operating system
image and not using NCR’s provided OS Recovery image as a base
image, then we recommend that all installed drivers be placed in a
similar c:\install directory for support.

Microsoft Operating System License Agreements
When purchasing a workstation or kiosk preloaded with a Microsoft
operating system, the application provider must follow certain license
agreement guidelines. Listed below are some of the major points of
Microsoft’s “Embedded Software” agreement, which currently covers
DOS, Win 3.11, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT, Windows
2000, and Windows XPe.
•

The end user application should not permit the user (typically a
cashier) to exit the application so that they may be able to browse
the operating system desktop, explorer, or other Microsoft
operating system user interface elements. This does not apply to
servicing, upgrading, or diagnosing problems for the workstation
by services or field engineers. This restriction is meant to ensure
that the end user is only permitted to navigate within the confines
of the end user’s application under normal operating conditions.

•

The NCR OS Recovery image can only be used to recover or update
systems with licenses procured from NCR.

Chapter 4: Operating System Recovery

4-9

Operating System Restrictions
The following section describes restrictions for operating systems used
with the 7454 terminal.

Standby and Hibernate Mode Restriction
When using a 7454 terminal without a keyboard or mouse, the
Windows 2000, Windows XP PRO, and Windows XP Embedded OS
Standby Mode and Hibernate Mode should be avoided. These two modes
place the hardware in a low power state which requires an interrupt to
restart the processor.
The Windows 2000 and Windows XP Embedded Gold Disk Images
disable Hibernate Mode and Standby Mode on the 7454 terminal. These
two modes should not be used without a keyboard or mouse.

Chapter 5: BIOS Updating Procedures

Introduction
The terminal’s BIOS can be updated using a parallel CD-ROM drive
and software available on bootable CD-ROM media. The drivers
necessary to run the CD-ROM are temporarily installed during boot.
This chapter describes this procedure.
It is also possible to perform a BIOS update using a network
connection. Refer to the NCR FitClient Software User's Guide for
information about that procedure.

Crisis Recovery
In the event the BIOS becomes corrupt, such as the result of a power
failure during the BIOS Update procedure, you can use the method
discussed later in this chapter in the BIOS Crisis Recovery section to
recover the BIOS.

Prerequisites
The following are required on the 7454 in order to perform a BIOS
update using a CD.
•

Chapter 5: BIOS Updating Procedures

BIOS Crisis Recovery
The procedures below provide a way to restore the BIOS resulting
from a non-recoverable condition.
Note: Use this BIOS crisis recovery procedure only for a
NON-RECOVERABLE BIOS failure. A non-recoverable BIOS state
typically results from power loss during a flash BIOS update process.
This is a rare occurrence and should not be confused with other
hardware errors that cause a no video state. This procedure is not
intended to be used for changing or upgrading an operational BIOS.

Introduction
This chapter defines the character sets and supported commands. The
NCR 7454 4x20 Customer Display is IEEE 1284 Compatible and
supports Extended Capability Parallel (ECP).

Viewing Area
The characters are arranged in 4 rows of 20 characters. Each character
is a 5x7 dot matrix.

Chapter 6: NCR 7454 4x20 Customer Display

Diagnostics
Power-Up Diagnostics occur soon after the hardware reset circuitry is
released, or when a Reset Display command is received from the host
software. When the hardware is powered down, all registers and
memory are lost. The display is not capable of any kind of power
recovery back to a previous state. As a part of the Power-Up
Diagnostics, the working registers and variables are initialized (set to
zero).
The self-diagnostics include:
1. Micro-controller Test
The Busy line is set active at the beginning of the test. The first test
is Exclusive-ORing all internal program memory locations and the
result of the test is zero. Any unused bytes in the summed page are
always programmed with null values so that they do not have an
impact on the execution of the test. An internal RAM test writes a
varying numerical value to each RAM location. The pattern must
show that all RAM locations can be uniquely addressed. All RAM
will be written. After the write phase is complete, a read phase
begins to ensure the writes held. If an error is discovered, testing
halts and the firmware begins executing a forever do nothing loop.
2. Display Test
The display will run an extra test that turns on all pixels on the
display (character cells) for about two seconds and then displays
the part number and the firmware version “008-0221552, V1.00.01”
for another two seconds. This permits a user to examine the display
for any pixel failure. The unit does not have the capability to
determine if the Display Test passed. Once diagnostic testing is
completed, the line states will be returned to normal and the
firmware branches to its idle routine.
Note: When the I/F receives a Reset command, only Step 1 is
executed. The Display Test is not executed.

Command Descriptions
Structure/Logic Description
The Retail VFD firmware is comprised of operating system type
services such as common subroutines, interrupt service routines, and
data processing routines. Normally, the firmware is always active
refreshing the Retail VFD to keep display data visible. The firmware
will also act on interrupts due to host parallel communication. This
communication is in the form of commands from the host to the Retail
VFD that require the Retail VFD to modify the display appearance.
The Retail VFD firmware uses a micro-controller and interfaces to
parallel links.

Host/Retail VFD Command Interface
The Retail VFD accepts two types of data; display data and command
data. If a byte received from the host is any character except ESC (0x1B)
character, it is processed as a character and displayed on the Retail
VFD. If an ESC character (0x1B) is received, the subsequent byte(s) is
processed as a command. If the subsequent byte is an invalid
command it will be ignored. If an ESC is received, but no subsequent
byte is received within ten seconds, the firmware will ignore it.
Note that each command consists of at least two bytes. The first byte
(0x1B) is a command identifier indicating the next byte(s) is a

Chapter 6: NCR 7454 4x20 Customer Display

Reset Display
Format:

1B 01

Description:

This command executes the power-down power-up diagnostic
sequence. The BUSY line is set to active condition. The micro-controller
test consists of a sum-check test on the ROM and a write/read test on
the RAM. After executing the command, the display screen is cleared,
the cursor moves to the 0 position, the BUSY line is set to inactive
conditions, and all registers and variables are initialized. Note that the
screen is cleared during this command. If a host needs previous data
redisplayed, the host must resend the previous data after this
command has completed.

Erase Display
Format:

1B 02

Description:

This command clears all of the displayed characters by writing a space
to each display position. A space is defined as character 0x20 of the
current character set. The cursor moves to the 0 position.

Invalid Command
Format:

1B 03

Description:

This in now an invalid command.

Chapter 6: NCR 7454 4x20 Customer Display

6-9

Set Diagnostic State
Format:

1B 04

Description:

This state is exclusive from the On and Low Power states. This
command causes the firmware to display the current NCR part number
and firmware version of the device. For example, the current part
number and firmware version of the device are 008-0221537 and
V1.00.01) for two seconds and then step through each installed 256character set (default and user defined) displaying one character at a
time on all 40 display positions at a rate of about one character per
second. Start with the currently selected character set and then display
all of the characters from the other sets the same way. This continues
until one of the other state commands is performed. Prior display data
is saved and can be restored be sending the Turn On (state 3) command.

Set Display State On
Format:

1B 05

Description:

This state is used for normal run-time conditions. This operation
instructs the firmware to leave one of the other states and begin
performing normal refresh operations. There may be a slight delay
before the VFD reaches the specified brightness setting when exiting
the Low Power State. This delay should not exceed 1 second from the
time the command is received until the time the VFD reaches the
specified brightness.
Highest priority is given to refresh operations and a lower priority is
given to host communications. Host communications still work, but if a
large amount of data is to be programmed in a very short time frame, it
would work faster if the Blank State was programmed prior to the
information transfer.
The Screen Save feature may be in force during the Display On state.
This means that after about five minutes of no new display activity, the
Screen Save feature could take over and cause the display to go blank
or begin walking from right to left.

6-10

Chapter 6: NCR 7454 4x20 Customer Display

Set Low Power State On
Format:

1B 06

Description:

This state is used to reduce Retail VFD power consumption and extend
the life of the Retail VFD. Power is only removed from the VFD and the
display will not be refreshed. The Retail VFD controller is still fully
operational and will continue to accept commands. This command
causes the firmware to blank or turn off the Retail VFD. Display data
can be processed while the display is in the Low Power state, but it will
not appear until the Low Power state is changed. The displayed
character(s) states is preserved so that upon leaving the Low Power
State the display is restored. To leave the Low Power State, one of the
other state commands must be received. This is the default state for the
Retail VFD after power-up.

Enable Cursor
Format:

1B 07

Description:

This command causes a flashing cursor to be used whenever the
Display On state is in force. When the cursor is enabled, the firmware
will show a visible flashing cursor at the current cursor position. The
flashing cursor should be visible for one second and then the character
at the cursor position should be visible for one second. The effect is to
alternate between the character and the cursor. The cursor is defined as
character 5FH of whatever character set is currently chosen. For the
two supported character sets, the cursor is the bottom row of pixels
turned on. For a user defined character set, the cursor will be whatever
is defined as character 5FH of the character set. When the cursor is
enabled, it overwrites the character at the cursor position. If the cursor
is disabled, the character at the cursor position is left visible.

Disable Cursor
Format:

1B 08

Description:

This command causes the cursor to be turned off. This is the default
state for the cursor after power-up. A disabled cursor does not
overwrite a displayed character.

Chapter 6: NCR 7454 4x20 Customer Display

6-11

Set Screen Save Blank
Format:

1B 09

Description:

This command is intended to preserve the life of the display hardware
unit. The firmware maintains a five-minute timer that triggers this
feature. The Screen Save feature can be disabled through a command
from the host software. When the feature is not disabled, two specific
options exist. The Set Screen Save Blank operation causes the display to
go blank when the timer expires. When the firmware receives the
command code, the Screen Save mode is canceled and the five-minute
timer is established. Screen Save Blank removes power from the Retail
VFD and does not refresh the display in the same manner as the Set
Low Power On command. At power up, the timer is established at five
minutes and Screen Save Blank is established as a default. The five
minute timer is not reset by any invalid or incorrect command.

Set Screen Save Walk
Format:

1B 0A

Description:

This command causes the visible display to walk right to left when the
Screen Save timer expires (five minutes). The characters on the display
will appear to walk across the corresponding display row from right to
left. The four lines in the 4x20 Display will walk in parallel completely
off the left side of the display and then the four lines will appear to
come back from the right. If the display is space filled, then no effect is
perceived even though the walking is taking place. The Screen Save
Blank mode is the default mode after power up.

Turn On Screen Save
Format:

1B 0B

Description:

This command causes the one of the screen save functions (Set Screen
Save Blank or Set Screen Save Walk) to activate immediately rather
than waiting for the screen save timer to expire. If the Disable Screen
Save Option command is in effect when this command is issued, it is
canceled and the screen saver is enabled and activated immediately.

6-12

Chapter 6: NCR 7454 4x20 Customer Display

Disable Screen Save Option
Format:

1B 0C

Description:

The firmware will cease to keep time for the screen save activity from
the host software and the display will neither go blank nor begin to
walk due to inactivity from the host. This command can be canceled by
the Turn On Screen Save, Set Screen Save Blank, and Set Screen Save
Walk commands.

Enable Character Blink
Format:

1B 0D

Description:

The blink attribute is the only modifier that is supported for the display
character positions. The attribute itself is not necessarily programmed
with each new character code. Rather, each time a new character is
received, the current setting of the character blink operator is adopted
as the working attribute for the new character. If a new character is
received while character blink is enabled, the new character will blink.
This makes it possible to have a display with both blinking and nonblinking characters. The blink period is one second on and one second
off. All characters that are blink enabled, blink at the same time. The
only way to cause an existing character to start or stop blinking is to set
up the character blink operator, locate the cursor to the correct
character, and resend the individual character code.

Disable Character Blink
Format:

1B 0E

Description:

This command counteracts the Enable Character Blink. The firmware
will implement all new character codes with an on and holding
character presentation. On power up, the character blink modifier is
defaulted to disabled.

Chapter 6: NCR 7454 4x20 Customer Display

6-13

Move Cursor Left
Format:

1B 0F

Description:

Moves the cursor one position to the left. When the cursor is at the left
end of the rows 2-4, it moves to the right end of the row above it. When
the cursor is at the left end of the row 1, it moves to the right end of the
row 4. The cursor location always indicates the position of the next
character to be displayed, whether the cursor is enabled and blinking
or not. After each character is displayed, the firmware performs a
logical Move Cursor Right command.

Move Cursor Right
Format:

1B 10

Description:

Moves the cursor one position to the right. When the cursor is at the
right end of the row 1-3, it moves to the left end of the next row. When
the cursor is at the right end of the row 4, it moves to the left end of the
row 1. The cursor location always indicates the position of the next
character to be displayed, whether the cursor is enabled and blinking
or not. After each character is displayed, the firmware performs a
logical Move Cursor Right command. When the cursor is at the right
end of the row 4, it moves to the left end of the row 1 and operates in
an Overwrite Mode. (i.e., The next character sent to the display will
overwrite the character in the left end of the row 1.)

Move Cursor Up
Format:

1B 11

Description:

Moves the cursor up one line. When the cursor is on the row 2-4, the
cursor is moved to the same column on the row above it. When the
cursor is on the row 1, the cursor is moved to the same column on the
row 4. The cursor location always indicates the position of the next
character to be displayed, whether the cursor is enabled and blinking
or not. After each character is displayed, the firmware performs a
logical Move Cursor Right command.

6-14

Chapter 6: NCR 7454 4x20 Customer Display

Move Cursor Down
Format:

1B 12

Description:

Moves the cursor down one line. When the cursor is on the 1-3, the
cursor is moved to the same column on the next row. When the cursor
is on the row 4, the cursor is moved to the same column on the row 1.
The cursor location always indicates the position of the next character
to be displayed, whether the cursor is enabled and blinking or not.
After each character is displayed, the firmware performs a logical
Move Cursor Right command.

Move Cursor To Specified Position
Format:

1B 13 nn

Range:

00 ≤ nn ≤ 4F (hex)

Description:

Moves the cursor to the specified position. Position 0 is the upper
leftmost position and position 4F is the lower rightmost position. Any
value outside this range will be discarded, the command will be
ignored, and the cursor will not be moved. The cursor location always
indicates the position of the next character to be displayed, whether the
cursor is enabled and blinking or not. After each character is displayed,
the firmware performs a logical Move Cursor Right command. The
character positions are shown below.
