FOR THE MANAGER

PRIOR TO PROGRAMMING
Before starting sales entries, you must first program necessary items so that the cash register suits your sales manner. In this manual, there are three sections, BASIC FUNCTION PROGRAMMING where required items must be programmed, AUXILIARY FUNCTION PROGRAMMING where you can program for more convenient use of keys on the keyboard, and ADVANCED FUNCTION PROGRAMMING where various optional programming features are provided. Find the appropriate features for your needs, and make the necessary programming. You can select the language of text (English, French or Spanish) printed on receipts or journals. For the language selection, please refer to Language Selection described later in this section.

Procedure for programming 1. 2. 3. 4.
Check to see whether a paper roll is present in the machine. If there is not enough paper on the roll, replace it with a new one (refer to MAINTENANCE section for the replacement). Put the manager key in the mode switch and turn it to the PGM position. REG OPX/Z MGR Program necessary items into the cash register. OFF X1/Z1 Every time you program an item, the cash register will print the setting. Please X2/Z2 VOID refer to print samples in each section. PGM If necessary, issue programming reports for your reference. On the procedures and key operation examples shown in the programming details, numbers such as 08262005 indicates the parameter which must be entered using the corresponding numeric keys. Asterisks in the tables shown in the programming details indicate default settings.
BASIC FUNCTION PROGRAMMING
1 Date and Time Programming

(For Quick Start)

For setting the date, enter the date in 8 digits using the month-day-year (MM/DD/YYYY) format, then press the s key.

Date(MM/DD/YYYY)

08262005 s

(Aug. 26, 2005)

You can use the date format of day-month-year (DD/MM/YYYY) or year-month-day (YYYY/MM/DD) format. To change the format, refer to Various Function Selection Programming 1 section (Job code 61).
For setting the time, enter the time in 4 digits using the 24-hour format. For example, when the time is set to 2:30 AM, enter 230; and when it is set to 2:30 PM, enter 1430.
Time(max. 4 digits in 24-hour format)

1430 s

In the display, current time is displayed in 12-hour format. For AM time, and for PM time will appear in the rightmost position with the current time. If you want to display time in the 24-hour format, refer to Various Function Selection Programming 1 section (Job code 61).
2 Tax Programming for Automatic Tax Calculation Function
The cash register can support US and Canadian tax systems. If you use the Canadian tax system, you must first change the tax system, then program the tax rate or tax table and quantity for doughnut exempt which are described in this section. For changing your cash registers tax system, please refer to Various Function Selection Programming 1 section (job code 70). Before you can proceed with registration of sales, you must first program the tax that is levied in accordance with the law of your state. The cash register comes with the ability to program four different tax rates. In most states, you will only need to program Tax 1. However if you live in an area that has a separate local tax (such as a Parish tax) or a hospitality tax, the register can be programmed to calculate these separate taxes. When you program the tax status for a department, tax will be automatically added to sales of items assigned to the department according to the programmed tax status for the department. You can also enter tax manually. There are two tax programming methods. The tax rate method uses a straight percentage rate per dollar. The tax table method requires tax break information from your states or local tax offices. Use the method which is acceptable in your state. You can obtain necessary data for tax programming from your local tax office.

Tax status (taxable 1 through 4 / non-taxable) When any entry of a taxable department is made in a transaction, tax is automatically computed according to the associated tax table or rate. SICS (Single Item Cash Sale) If an entry of a department programmed for SICS is made first, the sale will be finalized as a cash sale as soon as the department key is pressed. If the entry is made after entering a department not programmed for SICS, the sale will not be finalized until the A key is pressed. Entry digit limit 32 Set the number of allowable digits for the maximum entry amount for each department. The limit is effective for operations in the REG mode and can be overridden in the MGR mode.
Example: Programming department 2 as taxable 1, SICS, negative department, entry digit limit - 7 digits, and allowing open & preset entry. (ABCDEFGH: 00011173) Key operation example Print

Unit price
Even if a department is not programmed to allow the entry of preset unit prices in functional programming, the department is automatically changed to allow the entry of preset unit prices by this programming entry.
2 PLU (Price Look-Up) and Subdepartment Programming
The PLU function allows speedy key entries whereby a price is automatically called up when a code is entered. The subdepartment is a kind of open PLU, which requires you to enter a price after the PLU code is entered. A maximum of 1200 PLU/subdepartment settings are possible. Each one belongs to a department and acquires the departments parameters (tax status, SICS and sign). The cash register is preprogrammed so all 1200 codes are assigned as PLUs associated with department 1 and preset unit price 0.
