Toshiba MA-141 - Manual (Page 13)

0 ~ [ 9]* 1001 Numeric keys
These keys are used to enter numeric values such as amount, quantity,
date, or code number.
Depressing the 100J key once is the same as depressing the key
twice consecutively.
fTI Decimal Point Key
This key is used, as part of numeric keys, to designate the position
of the decimal point when entering a percent rate or a quantity.
For example, to enter 0.5%, index 0—»p —>5. or \~T[ —»5.
When entering a price or amount such as $0.25, just index 2->‘5. In
this case, depression of the [T] key is not necessary and will cause
an error.
121 (MA-141-112) Department Keys
These are department keys through which sales items are registered.
These keys may be programmed as either 'PRESET' keys or 'OPEN' keys.
OPEN DEPARTMENT KEY
A department key which has no preset price programmed is an 'OPEN'
key and must have a price entered into it manually each time.
The price is rung up on the numeric keyboard and the appropriate
department key is depressed. The price is then displayed and
printed on the receipt and audit rolls.
When the same department key is depressed more than once after
a price entry, the price entry is repeated as many times as the
department key is depressed.
To enter a price extended by multiplication, enter the quantity
first, depress the [x] key, enter the price, and then depress the
appropriate department key. A multiplication entry may not be
repeated by depressing the department key again,
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 department key as many
times as desired.
To multiply a preset department price by a quantity, enter the
quantity first, depress the [Y] key (the [x] key may be omitted
if the preceding quantity is a one-digit value), and then depress
the preset department key.
If a non-preset price must be entered on the keyboard into a preset
department, depress the I PR: OPE^I key either before or after the
price entry, prior to the |DEPT| key depression.
