ER 5200/5240 Electronic Cash Register
Percentage Key (%) Registrations
There are three percentage keys on the default ER-5200 keyboard; there are four percentage keys on
the default ER-5240 keyboard. Through "Function Key Assignment Programming" (see page 81) up to
five percentage keys may be placed on the keyboard. Each key is individually programmable to add or
subtract, from an individual item or from a sale total, amounts (coupons) or percentages. You can also
program the percentage key taxable or non-taxable, so that sales taxes are calculated on the net, or
gross amount of the item or sale.
The operation examples in this section show the percentage key in a variety of configurations. See
"%1-%5 Function Key Options” on page 143 to assign a specific function to each percentage key.
