6.3 Condition Required for Programming Operations

6.3 Condition Required for Programming Operations
"CONDITION" is given at the top of each programming operation. The ECR must satisfy this condition to perform
programming operations.
There are two types of conditions:
"Any time outside a sale"
It means that the programming operation is allowed when a sale is finalized before going into any other sale entry.
"After------ reset"
It means that the designated reset report must be taken before entering the programming operation.
And an error will result if the operation is attempted without taking the report. However, the words "After ...
Reset" do not necessarily mean "immediately after ...".
When the designated reset report has already been taken and then some operations are performed in the SET, X,
or Z mode, the condition "After ... Reset" is still satisfied and the programming operation is still allowed.
On the contrary, when the designated reset report has been taken but then some sales data relating to that
report's output data are entered in the REG, MGR, or - mode, the programming operation will no longer be
allowed and the same reset report must be taken.
Thus the condition "After ... Reset" indicates that all the sales data relating to the report data must be zero
(except non-resettable memory data). Because of this "CONDITION" requirement, the report data will be
protected from any inconsistencies of sales data entered in the period from a resetting of the report to another
resetting of the same report next time.
