PC-Based Software
Your cash register includes:
•
RegisterLink PC-based software.
This software allows you to connect the cash register to your PC to download
your sales information and transfer it to QuickBooks® Pro 2002 or later
accounting software.
Program your cash register from the PC - You can program clerk, PLUs,
departments, the header, the footer, and scrolling messages on your PC and
download these settings to your cash register.
Back-Up and Restore - Whether you programmed your cash register data on
the cash register or on your PC, you can back-up that PROGRAM SETTING
and store the data on your PC. Should you lose the memory in your cash
register, you can simply restore the data from your PC back to the cash
register without having to reprogram all the PLU's, Departments and other
data.
Additional Cash Registers - When you buy additional cash registers, you can
use the back-up-and-restore feature with multiple registers of the same model
number. Just program one register, back-up the data to your PC, and then
restore or download the data from your PC to the other registers, as long as
they are all the same model number. This saves you the time of having to
program each register individually.
Check the Royal web site for any new features and upgrades to
RegisterLink.
Using the RegisterLink software requires connecting your computer to the cash
register using the serial port. To connect your computer to the serial port, you need
to use the included null-modem serial cable. For technical details about the serial
connection, see About the Serial Port on page82.
