Setting a PLU Preset Price or an Open PLU Entry Limit
If a PLU is preset, you will need to set the price of the item. If a PLU is not preset, you can
set a maximum amount that can be registered. The maximum entry is often called a HALO
(H
igh Amount Lock Out). If no HALO is set for an open department, the operator can
register amounts up to 7-digits ($99,999.99).
Merchants often set HALO limits to prevent errors and over-rings. For example, you can set
a HALO of $50.00 if the highest price item in sold in a category is $50.00. If the operator
inadvertently enters $500.00, the register will not accept the entry and display an error
message.
