The number of clerks available is determined by memory allocation. (The default
configuration provides 10 clerks.) See "Memory Allocation" in the "Service Mode
Programming" chapter to set the number of clerks as well as other memory variables.
You can choose a push button or code entry clerk system:


The simplest clerk system is the push button system. This is also the default
system; the register will operate this way unless it is programmed otherwise.
You simply press the CLERK key to sign on the clerk. You can operate only
one clerk per register when you choose this method.

You can provide maximum security in a multiple clerk system with the code
entry system. Enter the clerk secret code, and then press the CLERK key to
sign on the register.

You can sign off a clerk by entering 0, then pressing the CLERK key.

Using an optional card reader, you can use employee cards to log on or off.

Stay down means that once a clerk is signed on, the same clerk will remain
signed on until the clerk signs off. A stay down clerk system might be used
when only one operator uses the register at a time and a different operator
begins when a work shift is changed.

Pop-up means that the clerk is automatically signed off at the end of each
transaction. To begin a transaction, you must first sign a clerk on. A pop-up
clerk system might be used in a department store, where several clerks use
the register during the same shift and clerk sales information is required.
