THE CONTROL SWITCH _________________________________________________________________ _ The Control Switch on the left-edge of the cash register inside the printer compartment must be properly positioned to operate or program the cash register. The Control Switch is also used to access the “X” and “Z” modes to print or reset the totals for the management reports.
THE DISPLAY _________________________________________________________________ _ READING THE DISPLAY The display shows entry amounts and related transaction information through use of numbers and special symbols. The display window is situated so that the operator can view the operations. The display is read from left to right as follows. Department - The first 2-digits display the department number associated for the specific entry.
ERROR CONDITIONS THE ERROR ALARM SYSTEM The error alarm system warns of an operator error (usually pressing the wrong key for a specific type of entry) or an error when setting a program option. When the error beep tone sounds, an "E" appears in the display and the keypad locks. An error tone will also occur if the user tries to use a cash register function that has not been programmed yet.
THE BACK-UP BATTERY SYSTEM _________________________________________________________________ _ During cash register operations, all transaction data for the management report is stored in the register's memory. The memory also holds all the optional program information, such as PLU and department information programmed in the register. The memory is protected by 2 standard "AA"(1.5-Volt) batteries that should be installed before programming the register.
INSTALLING A NEW PAPER ROLL ________________________________________________________ As you use the cash register, you will need to replace the paper roll. Your cash register has a thermal printer that prints receipts for the customer or a journal tape. Use 2 1/4 inch (57.5 mm) wide standard thermal register paper.

QUICK START _________________________________________________________________ _ Quick Start is a brief but complete start-up program that allows you to "get started" immediately on the most basic aspects of operating your new cash register. Follow these directions precisely: 1. Read and follow the set-up instructions on pages 1-11. Reminder: It is important that the register is plugged in before the back-up batteries are installed.

Once you have mastered the Quick Start operations, you may want to take advantage of other valuable register functions such as Percent Discount Rate, Price Look-Ups (PLU’s) and Security Codes. If you have questions regarding Quick Start or any other aspects of the machine operation, call Royal Customer Service, toll-free, at 1-800-272-6229. HELPFUL HINTS FOR A SUCCESSFUL START-UP GENERAL INFORMATION It is not necessary to re-program the entire machine to make a single program change or correction.
SETTING PROGRAMS This cash register allows you to set programs customized to your individual business requirements. These programs include: - Setting the Time and Date - Setting the Clerk System - Setting a Percent Discount (-%) Rate - Assigning a Department Tax Status and Pre-set Department prices - Setting a Tax Rate - Creating Price Look-Ups (PLU’s) - Assigning a Security Code for the Program and "Z"...
SETTING THE DATE AND TIME _________________________________________________________________ _ Set the date option to print the current date at the top of each receipt, journal record or management report. Set the time option to print the current time at the bottom of the receipt. The time will automatically print and display in military – time (24-hour format).
SETTING THE CLERK SYSTEM The Clerk System allows transactions to be associated with a clerk #. Optionally, there can be a security code assigned to each clerk number. The benefit of the system is that sales can be tracked by clerk; a Clerk Report captures the number of transactions and sales for each Clerk number.
PERCENT DISCOUNT (-%) Setting this option automatically calculates the preset rate each time the [-%] key is pressed. This percentage rate can be discounted from an individual item or an entire transaction. You can override the program rate by manually entering a different rate. (See TRANSACTION EXAMPLES FOR OPERATING THE CASH REGISTER).
DEPARTMENT PROGRAMMING Each department can represent a category of merchandise. For example, Department 1 can represent sales of beverages; Department 2, sandwiches; Department 3, candy; etc. Each department can be programmed as taxable or non-taxable. If desired, each department can also be programmed with a preset price, although that preset price can be overridden at any time. Each PLU programmed in the register must then be assigned to a Department, which will define the tax rate to be charge for that PLU.
DEPARTMENT PROGRAMMING ZERO PRICE ENTRY SETTING This procedure allows a price of zero ($0.00) to be entered for a department or PLU price during set-up programming. The default setting does not accept a "0" price. Enter the Program mode: Move the Control Switch to the "PRG" position. To allow zero price entry, type [8], then [1], followed by the [void] key.
TEXT PROGRAMMING SELECTING THE TEXT The text is chosen by the [text] key. DISPLAY <--- Normal programming mode [<text>] d P 0 1 <--- Department name [<text>] P L 0 0 0 1 <--- PLU name [<text>] C L 0 1 <--- Clerk name [<text>] H d 1...

A tax table rate is based on an approved tax table chart issued by an individual state or local municipality. If programming by tax table rate, then please obtain a copy of the exact tax table from your state or local tax authority and then contact Royal Customer Service for more information.
TAX RATE (Continued) TO PROGRAM A FIXED TAX RATE: (Recommended For Most Applications) "PRG" mode + Tax 1 - 4 + [Tax Shift] + Tax Rate (4 Digit #) + (amt Tend/TOTAL) Note: You can program 1 Tax Rate or up to 4 Tax Rates. Remember, when you determine a department's tax status, at that point, you identify the tax rate you want for that department.
PRICE LOOK UP (PLU) _________________________________________________________________ _ The Price Look Up system allows for fast, accurate entry of an item and automatically tracks the number of items sold. Each PLU number is associated to one item or sku. There are 2 methods in programming PLU’s. One method is to set the PLU number with a preset price known as a Fixed PLU Price.
PLU CONFIRMATION REPORT To print a PLU Confirmation Report If needed, enter the program mode: Move the Control Switch to the "PRG" position. Press the [PLU] key. All the PLU’s that have been programmed will print. See sample printout below. Continue with other programming or move the Control Switch out of the "PRG"...
SETTING THE SECURITY CODE AND DECIMAL POINT SECURITY CODE: For Program and Management Report Protection Management Reports can be printed in either the "X" or "Z" positions on the Control Switch. When printed in the "Z" position, transaction totals are reset to zero. Assigning a security code can prevent accidental reset of transaction totals. Once assigned, the "Z"...

TAX SYSTEM PRESET In addition to the USA tax mode of ADD-ON TAX which is the standard factory setting for this register, two other tax systems are available as follows: Canadian Tax System - Special tax programming for the taxation system in Canada. VAT (Value Added Tax) - which means that the tax amount is included in the price of the item.
VAT TAX SYSTEM The VAT tax system, which stands for Value Added Tax, is most commonly used in Mexico and European Countries. With VAT tax, the tax amount is already included in the price of the item, yet the tax amount will also be printed as a separate item on the itemized receipt.
