Keyboard Legend
Description
PRINT CHECK
Use to print a guest check. The check can be printed on an optional (RS-
232C) printer, or can be printed on the receipt printer. The PRINT
CHECK key can be set to automatically service the check.
PROMO
The PROMO key allows you to account for promotional items, as in "buy
two, get one free". Pressing this key will remove an item's cost from the
sale, but will include the sale of the item in the item's sales counter.
RECT FEED
Advances the receipt paper one line, or continuously until the key is
released.
RCPT ON/OFF
When 'OFF' no receipt will print during a sale. (If the receipt is off, a
buffered receipt is available by pressing the
CASH key a second time.)
RECD ACCT (1-3)
The RA (received on account) key is used to record media loaned to the
cash drawer, or payments received outside of a sale. The cash drawer will
open. The amount received adds to the cash-in-drawer total.
SCALE
Use to make weight entries. When a scale is attached, press the scale key
to show the weight in the display, then press (or enter) a PLU to multiply
the weight times the price. When a scale is not attached, you can enter the
weight (using the decimal key for fractions). PLUs may be programmed
to require an entry through the scale key.
SERVICE
Use to temporarily finalize Previous Balance or Check/Table tracking
transactions.
SBTL
Displays subtotal of sale including tax. Must be pressed prior to a sale
discount or sale surcharge.
TABLE #
Tracks the current balance for a guest check or table.
TARE
Tares are container weights. If you are using the scale function, you can
preset up to 5 different tare weights. The tare can be subtracted
automatically when a specific PLU is registered, or manually inputting the
tare number and pressing the TARE key can subtract the tare. Tare #5 can
be programmed for entering tare weights manually.
TAX EXEMPT
Press the TAX EXEMPT key to exempt tax 1, tax 2, tax 3, and/or tax 4
from the entire sale.
TAX (1-4) SHIFT
When pressed before a PLU entry, the tax shift keys reverse the tax status
of the PLU, i.e., a PLU with non-tax status would become taxable or a
PLU with tax status would become non-taxable.
TIP
The TIP key allows a gratuity to be added to a guest check before
payment. The tip amount is deducted from the Cash-in-Drawer amount
for the Clerk/Cashier closing the guest check.
The TIP key may be programmed as either a percentage or amount. If
programmed as a percentage, tax programming defines whether the
percentage is calculated on the net amount, or the amount after taxes.
VOID
Use to correct an item entered earlier within a sale. The VOID key
corrects the appropriate totals and counters. To correct the last item, use
the ERROR CORR key. For void operations outside of a sale
(Transaction Void), use the VOID position on the control lock. The
Financial report records totals for each type of void separately.
VALIDATION
If you are using an optional slip printer, you can press the VALIDATION
key to print a one-line validation on a separate form or piece of paper.
Any item registration, discount or payment may be validated
