Overview
The NCR RealPOS 5953 USB DynaKey is a replacement for its
predecessor, the 5953-Wedge (PS/2) DynaKey, with features and
advantages not present in the older product. This chapter is a
discussion of those features with some explanation of the advantages.
Powered Universal Serial Bus (USB) for data and power

The NCR RealPOS 5953 USB DynaKey improves on its predecessor by
taking advantage of features of the Digital Visual Interface (DVI) and
Universal Serial Bus (USB) to increase flexibility and connectivity.
The major advances are:
Standard Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) interface
Full keyboard re-programmability
Added general-purpose connectivity via on-board port
Flash-programmable firmware
Future expandability for fingerprint sensor module and smartcard

There are also minor technical improvements, primarily a benefit for
systems integrators. One example is the ability for host software to
detect the presence or absence of the MSR, Keylock, and Glide Pad.
