Online Field Totals
You can use this feature in Enter, Update, and Verify modes.
The 3741 has three accumulators. Under program control,
the 3741 sums data in these accumulators from a specified
field or fields from any or all records. The program also speci-
fies in which accumulator to put the total.
Once the program is made, operating the 3741 with the Field
Totals feature is the same as normal operation. That is, you
key data the same way as you ordinarily do in Enter, Update,
or Verify mode.

How to Program:
Use a Begin Field code (see
Program Code Chart),
and a
number 1, 2, or 3, and Continue Field codes. 1 =Accumulator
1, 2 = Accumulator 2, 3 = Accumulator 3. For example R 1-----
accumulates data from this field and sums it in accumulator 1.
I
Accumulator 1
I
R12------ accumulates in accumulators 1 and 2.
I
Accumulator 1
I I
Accumulator 2
I
R 123------ accumulates in accumulators 1, 2, and 3.
I
Accumulator 1
I I
Accumulator 2
I I
Accumulator 3
For a Readout/Reset field (see the following illustrations) use
the Begin Field code B and a 7, 8, or 9:
7 =accumulator 1
8 = accumulator 2
9 =accumulator 3
