NCR 7766 Single Pocket Proof Encoder

The 7766 single pocket proof encoder delivers outstandingly reliable service and high availability in heavy day-in/day-out use. It combines advanced thermal encoding, ergonomic design, and performance monitoring technologies to maximize your operator's comfort and productivity and your return on investment.

Reliable
Today's 7766 applies NCR's decades of experience in designing and servicing single pocket proof encoders to offer you reliability second to none. The heart of the 7766, its proven, fourth-generation thermal encoder, contains far fewer moving parts than conventional impact encoders, thus minimizing service costs and maximizing uptime. It also provides higher print quality, reducing encoder-attributable reject rates on 3890 reader/sorters by as much as 66%. This can mean significant savings, especially if your bank processes large volumes of checks, or your processing center charges penalties for codeline rejects.

To help you monitor productivity, the 7766 can also track up to 20 operator activities (for example, document processing, error correction, meal breaks, and training) and analyze them in up to 3 different summary reports on productive activity, non-productive activity, and breaks. The 7766 also monitors performance statistics (numbers of keystrokes made, fields encoded, and documents processed).

The 7766 Clustered Proof option automates and simplifies productivity monitoring still further. By connecting all of your 7766 workstations into an Ethernet LAN, it lets you consolidate statistics from up to 50 workstations on a single PC server, then analyze them using any industry-standard spreadsheet package. Supervisors spend much less time gathering operator performance data, and management can make scheduling, performance appraisal, and pay incentive decisions much faster and more accurately.

The 7766's whisper-quiet thermal encoder eliminates the harsh clatter of impact encoders-a significant stressor in many proof-room environments. The extra-generously padded, full-support armrest reduces operator fatigue. Convenient storage trays and dividers let operators keep in-process work and control documents out of the way, but close at hand, to minimize reaching and stretching.

Then there are the subtle touches. Like ribbed surfaces to keep documents from sliding off or getting lost when the operator puts them down for a moment. And doors on the top of the console to give operators fast access to all devices on which they have to replace media.

CLUSTERED PROOF

Enhances Productivity Management
The Clustered Proof option drastically reduces the supervisory and management time required to analyze item processing data and operator productivity statistics from multiple 7766 workstations.

This option consists of the following components:
On each 7766: NCR communications firmware and an Ethernet communications adapter connecting the workstation into an Ethernet LAN; a server PC connected into the same LAN and running 7766 Clustering Software to receive, capture, and format the data from the workstations. (To handle up to 25 workstations, this PC requires a single Ethernet adapter; to handle 26 - 50, it requires two.)

The Clustered Proof Server PC captures four kinds of data:

Operator activity data (such as total numbers of items processed, keystrokes entered, and fields encoded User totals (transaction-level totals, including type, item count, value, and batch ID) dLog totals (batch-level information saved before a user total is cleared) NCR 7766 diagnostic tallies (used for hardware troubleshooting).

It then converts the data to a format that managers can readily analyze using industry-standard spreadsheet software.
