Guidance for text programming

The register allows you to program text for clerk names, department item names, PLU/subdepartment item
names, if necessary. When you program texts, place the keyboard sheet for text programming over the
keyboard sheet for ordinal use. For the placement, please refer to "Keyboard sheet" section on page 6.
There are two ways for programming text; using character keys (shaded area shown below on the keyboard
sheet for text programming) or entering character codes with numeric keys on the keyboard.
