SAM4s ER-900 Series Operator's & Programming Manual v.1.3
Compulsory Drawer
With compulsory drawer enabled, the clerk cannot begin a new transaction until the drawer is
closed. This simple feature was designed to teach cashiers the habit of closing the cash
drawer after each transaction. You’ll reduce potential errors, theft and fraud that can take
place when your cashier works out of an open drawer.
Compulsory Number Entry
This option forces the operator to enter a reference number (using the #/NS key) before a
PLU entry can be made or a transaction finalized with a Charge key. The number could
represent an SKU number that would be tracked manually, or other data such as a customer
count.
Consecutive Number
A sequential number is printed on each receipt issued. This is not a “customer count” as this
number is incremented for non-sales activity such as no-sales and reports. A count of revenue
generating transactions (true customer count) is printed with the Net Sales total on the
financial report.
Currency Conversion
Use the currency conversion function to convert and display the value of the transaction in
foreign currency. Only cash tender is allowed after pressing the currency conversion
function. Change is calculated and issued in home currency.
Decimal Multiplication
If you sell weighed goods, yard goods, or any merchandise sold in fractions of a unit, the
decimal multiplication feature calculates each transaction quickly and accurately. For
example, if your customer selects 4.75 pounds of an item sold at $1.59 per pound, you enter
4.75 on the numeric keypad, press the X/TIME (multiplication) key, then enter the price per
pound and press the appropriate PLU key.
Default Program
The original program installed in the ER-900 Series. The register has a default program
which makes it operational after a memory clear. Nearly all option, rate, and status programs
are set to zero as the default condition.
Department
Note: The ER-900 Series uses price look-ups (PLUs) to perform the function of traditional
cash register departments. PLUs may be registered directly on the keyboard (like traditional
departments) or indirectly by entering the item or PLU number and then pressing the PLU
key.
Electronic Journal
The ER-920 and ER-925 do not provide a journal printer; the ER-940 and ER-945 provide a
traditional journal printer. Today many systems, even expensive PC-based systems do not
print a traditional sales journal. For business records, a copy of daily financial summaries is
usually all that is needed. Like some of the more expensive POS systems, the SAM4s ER-
900 Series has the capability of storing a sales journal in memory. The electronic journal can
be reviewed and discarded, saved to an SD card or polled by a PC for archival. When ECR
memory reserved for electronic journal is full, current records are saved and old data is
