THE CONTROL SWITCH __________________________________________________________________ The Control Switch on the left-edge of the cash register inside the printer compartment must be properly positioned to operate or program the cash register. The Control Switch is also used to access the “X” and “Z” modes to print or reset the totals for the management reports. Depending on the desired operation, position the Control Switch as follows: "off" - The cash register is turned off and inoperable.
THE DISPLAY __________________________________________________________________ READING THE DISPLAY The display shows entry amounts and related transaction information through use of numbers and special symbols. The display window is situated so that the operator can view the operations. The display is read from left to right as follows. Department - The first 2-digits display the department number associated for the specific entry.
ERROR CONDITIONS __________________________________________________________________ THE ERROR ALARM SYSTEM The error alarm system warns of an operator error (usually pressing the wrong key for a specific type of entry) or an error when setting a program option. When the error beep tone sounds, an "E" appears in the display and the keypad locks. An error tone will also occur if the user tries to use a cash register function that has not been programmed yet.
THE BACK-UP BATTERY SYSTEM __________________________________________________________________ During cash register operations, all transaction data for the management report is stored in the register's memory. The memory also holds all the optional program information, such as PLU and department information programmed in the register. The memory is protected by 3 standard "AA"(1.5-Volt) batteries that should be installed before programming the register. Batteries are included with the register.
LOADING PAPER __________________________________________________________________ HOW TO LOAD THE PAPER This register uses standard 2 ¼ inch (57mm) single-ply bond paper to produce either a customer receipt (outside) or a journal record (inside). NOTE: It is recommended to use ROYAL brand 2 1/4" (57mm) bond paper, which will help prevent dust deposits on the printer mechanism caused by inexpensive paper rolls. Replace with standard bond quality calculator paper. ROYAL Part #013129.
INSTALLING INK ROLL __________________________________________________________________ HOW TO CHANGE THE INK ROLL This register comes equipped with the ink roll installed at the factory. The ink roll releases special ink to the print head, which produces the print on the paper. After a period of time, depending upon the amount of use, the ink in the roll will be used up. When printout becomes faint, the ink roll needs to be replaced. CAUTION: The ink roll is NOT designed to be re-inked.
QUICK START __________________________________________________________________ Quick Start is a brief but complete start-up program that allows you to "get started" immediately on the most basic aspects of operating your new cash register. Follow these directions precisely: 1. Read and follow the set-up instructions on pages 1-11. Reminder: It is important that the register is plugged in before the back-up batteries are installed. 2.
QUICK START __________________________________________________________________ Once you have mastered the Quick Start operations, you may want to take advantage of other valuable register functions such as Percent Discount Rate, Price Look-Ups (PLU’s) and Security Codes. If you have questions regarding Quick Start or any other aspects of the machine operation, call Royal Customer Service, toll-free, at 1-800-272-6229.
SETTING PROGRAMS __________________________________________________________________ This cash register allows you to set programs customized to your individual business requirements.
SETTING THE DATE AND TIME __________________________________________________________________ Set the date option to print the current date at the top of each receipt, journal record or management report. Set the time option to print the current time at the bottom of the receipt. The time will automatically print and display in military – time (24-hour format). The time prints in the following format: HH•MM. For example: 9:30. If the time is AM, the receipt will print 9-30.
SETTING THE CLERK SYSTEM __________________________________________________________________ The Clerk System allows transactions to be associated with a clerk #. Optionally, there can be a security code assigned to each clerk number. The benefit of the system is that sales can be tracked by clerk; a Clerk Report captures the number of transactions and sales for each Clerk number. There are a few steps to set up the Clerk System. 1. Activate/Disable the Clerk System 2.
PERCENT DISCOUNT (-%) __________________________________________________________________ Setting this option automatically calculates the preset rate each time the [-%] key is pressed. This percentage rate can be discounted from an individual item or an entire transaction. You can override the program rate by manually entering a different rate. (See TRANSACTION EXAMPLES FOR OPERATING THE CASH REGISTER). Setting a Percent Discount (-%) Rate: 1.
DEPARTMENT TAX STATUS __________________________________________________________________ Each department can represent a category of merchandise. For example, Department 1 can represent sales of beverages, Department 2; sandwiches, Department 3; candy, etc. Each department can be programmed as taxable or non-taxable. If desired, each department can also be programmed with a preset price, although that preset price can be overridden at any time.
DEPARTMENT PROGRAMMING (Continued) __________________________________________________________________ ZERO PRICE ENTRY SETTING This procedure allows a price of zero ($0.00) to be entered for a department or PLU price during set-up programming. The default setting does not accept a "0" price. 1. Enter the Program mode: Move the Control Switch to the "prg" position. 2. To allow zero price entry, type [8], then [1], followed by the [RA] key. 3.
TAX RATE __________________________________________________________________ Programming the Tax Rate This cash register supports up to 4 Tax Tables; therefore, it allows 4 separate tax rates to be established and each of those rates can be linked to a different department. For instance, Tax1 could be 6%, Tax2 could be 8%, Tax3 could be 5.5% and Tax4 could be 2%. By establishing separate tax rates, a separate Tax rate total is printed on the management report, if you want to know taxes paid by rate.
TAX RATE (Continued) __________________________________________________________________ TO PROGRAM A FIXED TAX RATE: (Recommended For Most Applications) "prg" mode + Tax 1 - 4 + [Tax Shift] + Tax Rate (4 Digit #) + (Amt/Tend/TOTAL) Note: You can program 1 Tax Rate or up to 4 Tax Rates. Remember, when you determine a department's tax status, at that point, you identify the tax rate you want for that department. If you make a mistake between steps 2 and 4, press the Clear [C] key and start again at step 2. 1.
__________________________________________________________________ PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK 22
PRICE LOOK UP (PLU) __________________________________________________________________ The Price Look Up system allows for fast, accurate entry of an item and automatically tracks the number of items sold. Each PLU number is associated to one item or sku. There are 2 methods in programming PLU’s. One method is to set the PLU number with a preset price known as a Fixed PLU Price.
PLU CONFIRMATION REPORT __________________________________________________________________ To print a PLU Confirmation Report 1. If needed, enter the program mode: Move the Control Switch to the "prg" position. 2. Press the [PLU] key. All the PLU’s that have been programmed will print. See sample printout below. 3. Continue with other programming or move the Control Switch out of the "prg" position.
SETTING THE SECURITY CODE AND DECIMAL POINT __________________________________________________________________ SECURITY CODE: For Program and Management Report Protection Management Reports can be printed in either the "X" or "Z" positions on the Control Switch. When printed in the "Z" position, transaction totals are reset to zero. Assigning a security code can prevent accidental reset of transaction totals. Once assigned, the "Z" report prints ONLY after entering the security code.
