Benefits of the RPSW

The Retail Platform Software for Windows (RPSW) installer provides the following benefits:

•Single installer distribution for all Retail Platform software.

•Auto–detection of terminal type (if it is running on an NCR Gold Drive or OS Recovery Image).

•Ability to select complete or custom installation of platform software.

•Complete installation installs NCR Base Platform, NCR OPOS, NCR JavaPOS, and RSM Local Edition (LE) software. The installation requires minimal customer input, and only one reboot to install all components.

•RSM LE is installed to provide access to the OPOS Configuration and diagnostics locally.

•There is no need to know the order of installing platform software. The RPSW installation ensures that all required components are installed and configured properly.

•Custom installation provides the ability to pick and select components based on a customer configuration. The RPSW installation ensures that all the software required in support of a selected component is installed and configured properly.

•Custom installation selections include:

•NCR Base Platform Support

•NCR OPOS

•NCR JavaPOS

•NCR Retail Systems Manager LE

•NCR Predictive Services

•NCR FitClient (Available only for RPSW versions below 4.0)

•Ability to upgrade existing installations.

•Distribution of both .exe and .msi files to permit partners or branded applications to bundle platform software installation into their own Windows Installer applications.

•The Retail Platform Software for Windows.msi distribution can also be uploaded to the RSM SE servers for installation on remote terminals.
