Programming A Descriptor For Keyboard Plus - Sam4s ER-900 Series Operator's And Programming Manual

Programming a Descriptor for Keyboard PLUs

The default method of programming a descriptor will differ depending upon the specific
ER-900 Series model you are programming.
ER-920 & ER-940 models feature a flat keyboard. The default descriptor program method
is by the Alpha Keyboard Overlay.
ER-925 & ER-945 models feature a raised-key keyboard. The default descriptor program
method is by descriptor codes. Note that if you have purchased the expanded keyboard
version of one of these models, descriptor entry by overlay method is optional. Consult with
your dealer to determine the correct method of descriptor entry for your model.
Descriptor Programming by Overlay Method for Flat Keyboard Models
Locate the Alpha Keyboard overlay included in your register's accessory package. Install the
overlay under the protective rubber overlay. The overlay will look like the example below:
