KEYBOARD FUNCTIONS
(18) Return key [RETURN] is used for issuing refunds for returned merchandise.
(19) Charge key [CHARGE] is used to finalize a transaction paid by a credit card or can be used to denote an in-
house charge.
(20) Subtotal With Tax key [SUBTOTAL/W/TAX] - double function - Subtotal w/Tax displays the total sales amount,
including sales tax. It is not printed on the register receipt until the sale is finalized by pressing either the [CHECK],
[CHARGE], [FOOD STAMP] or [AMT TEND/TOTAL] key. Also can be used to print a second receipt.
(21) Subtotal, No-Sale and Non-Add key [#/ST/NS] - triple function - As the No-Sale key, it opens the drawer without
registering any amounts; for example, to give change. The Non-Add key function allows entering, up to 10 digits,
a reference number which prints on sales receipts. As the Subtotal key, it displays and prints the subtotal of a
sale without sales tax.
(22) Amount Tendered Total key [AMT TEND/TOTAL] is used to finalize a transaction paid by cash and calculates
the amount of change required from the cash received.
Date and Time Display: Press the [QTY/DATE] key in the register mode to show the date. The date will
change to the time when no keys are touched for 30 seconds. The [QTY/DATE] key is a double function key where,
during a transaction, it is used to multiply the quantity of items sold where an item is repeated.
LEAVING THE REGISTER PLUGGED IN: Keep the register plugged in and at the "OFF" (Locked) position
when not in use. The keyboard is then inoperable and the cash drawer is electronically locked, but a
minimum amount of power maintains the programs and transaction data totals.
There is a serial port located on the right side of the register just below the control lock. This port is used to connect to
the barcode scanner or to a PC, and can be accessed by using a small screwdriver to remove the protective plate.
