Radio Frequency Interference Statements Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Information to User This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
Battery Disposal (Switzerland) Refer to Annex 4.10 of SR814.013 for battery disposal DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY We, NCR Corporation, Retail Solutions Division – Atlanta 2651 Satellite Blvd., Duluth, Georgia 30096-5810 declare under our sole responsibility that the product Class 7730 - K070 Remote Button Activator to which this declaration relates is in conformity with the following standard(s) or other normative document(s) following the provisions of the noted Directives.
Chapter 11: Remote Button Activator (RBA) Overview The Remote Button Activator (RBA) offers an easy method to check the contents of an ESL’s registers. In a store environment, the RBA can be used to access promotional messaging, stocking information, planogram data, or other store-specific information stored in the ESL’s registers. The RBA device is similar to an automotive car door lock system or garage door opener system in both size and method of operation. 2.
Chapter 11: Remote Button Activator (RBA) B-2 2. Press and hold down the RBA button. This shows the contents of the selected ESL register on the ESL LCD. The LED light on the RBA blinks eight (8) times while the button is pressed. After approximately 15 seconds, the ESL LCD redisplays the contents of the original register and the LED stops blinking. Note: Each RBA is configured for use in a specific store and does not work on a RealPrice System in another store.
