Status Clear - TEC MA-1650-4 Series Programming Manual

STATUS CLEAR

The Status Clear operation will only clear an error or key-lock condition that disables normal operations. Thus
the sales data and programmed data will not be cleared (except when a Status Clear is used to clear a key-lock
during a sale, the sale item data already entered in the sale will be cleared).
The Status Clear can also be used to obtain an "after sales data reset" condition. This condition is required for
some programming operations and is usually obtained by following the directions (or using a Data Clear or RAM
Clear). However, when you visit your customer and must add or change some programming data where an "after
sales data reset" condition is required, the customer may not want the sales data to be reset. In such cases, the
Status Clear can be used because it obtains the "after all sales data resets" condition but will not affect any sales
data. Please be careful in using this function; depending on the programming item, sales data resets may be
necessary instead of a Status Clear, to keep consistency between the programmed data and the sales data.
To execute a Status Clear, follow Steps 1 through 5 for the RAM CLEAR, except that:
In Step 3, hold down the numeric key [0] only until Step 5 is completed.
