supported memory, a part of which is
used for retaining all of the user’s settings
and accumulated weights.

provides, in addition to a
calendar/clock, an additional 2K bytes of
battery supported RAM which is used for
the GS8920’s item entry and piece
counting facility.
The memory is divided into the following
registers whose structure and function is
fully explained in the following sections.

A .2 .2 Summation Register
One 12 digit weight register which is cleared when first
accessed via the key SUM. Subsequent operations of the
key SUM add the gross weight from the digital weight
indicator to the weight in the summation register.
Up to 30 additions can be made up to a total weight of
999,999,999,999 but generally, though, only two
additions would be made as in the case of truck ‘end to
end’ weighing.
The weight built up in the summation register is used
instead of the digital weight indicator’s input weight in
any of the GS8920 Ticket Printer’s functions.
