PRESET DEPARTMENT KEY
A preset key is a key which has already a price programmed in it.
It is therefore unnecessary to enter the price of an item; simply
depress the key to register the sale of one item.
To repeat the same preset item, depress the same department key
as many times as desired.
As for multiplication using a preset department key, see the
"REGISTERING PROCEDURE FOR SALES".
If a price different from the preset price is entered on numeric
keys into a preset department, depress the
1
PR OPEN
I
key either
before or after the price entry on the numeric keyboard.
Each department key can be programmed with a unit price, either
positive or negative use, a HALC (High Amount Listing Capacity),
and taxable/non-taxable status.
When a department is programmed as a negative department, a price
entry may not be repeated by depressing the department key. Neither
may a price entry be repeated when the i RTN MDSE I or [PR OPEN 1 key
has been depressed prior to a department key depression.
fcl Clear Key
This key is used to correct a numeric entry error prior to depressing
any other key or to correct any error condition and cancel the alarm
buzzer.
If the key is depressed after a sub-total is obtained, the sub­
total is displayed.
1%^ Percent Charge Key
This key is used to add a percent rate to a sale. If the pre­
programmed percentage rate is to be added, depress the \%+1 key
without a prior numeric entry. If a rate different from the pre­
programmed
% rate is added, enter the desired rate on the numreic
keyboard and then depress the |%+1 key. (The manual rate will take
priority.)
To operate, depress the l%+1 key either immediately after a depart­
ment entry if only that item requires the percentage addition, or
after the
I ST I key has been depressed if required on the total bill.
The percentage rate and the amount are printed and will be added
to the sales total.
The percentage rate may be within the range from 0.001 to 99.999%.
The fraction resulted from the percentage calculation is usually
programmed to be rounded off. However', it can be programmed to be
rounded up or discarded.
Usually, if the l%+ j key is depressed after a second 1 ST I key
depression within a sale, it adds the rate to the sale total of the
items entered between the first and the second I ST I key depressions.
However., it can be programmed to add the rate to the entire sale
by the system option.
