Data Entry Options
Data entry options available depend on the terminal’s
configuration and depend on the current mode of operation.
Data entry options can include the following:
• Manual Entry
• Search or Scan
• Recall and Global Recall
• Speed Codes
• Interrupt
• Magnetic Card Device
Refer to the following sections for information on all data entry options.
Manual Entry
Users can enter data manually on terminals using either Mode 1 or Mode 2
communication. When entering data manually, users can use either the numeric keypad,
the optional QWERTY keyboard, or both.
Search and Scan
The Search and Scan options are available only on terminals using Mode 1 communication.
The Search and Scan options look up accounting information for configured accounting
fields such as user or client. Users can search or scan for data at the terminal and then select
the necessary accounting information.
Searches are based on either the initial characters in a code or in a code’s description but
not both. For example, a code search for 123 finds 12345 and 123-999 as possible matches.
Scans are based on either any combination of characters found anywhere in a code or in a
code’s description, but not both. For example, a name scan for AB finds ABC Pools, John’s
Cab Company, and Van Abramson as possible matches.
The kinds of searches and scans users can perform on the terminal depend on the
terminal’s configuration. Each data entry field can be configured to support searches and/
or scans.
If the current data entry field has been configured to automatically search or scan (auto
search or scan), or configured to search or scan on the first key entered (first-key search or
scan), users do not have to manually initiate the search or scan.
