6.10.5 Clear Old Codes
This command allows you to cancel valid customer codes that were issued prior
to a specific date. This command is required to enforce the code age warning
(see section 6.2.3) printed at the bottom of a ticket. To select this command,
scroll through the secondary menu until "Clear Old Codes" is displayed. Then
press [ENTER].
Once you have selected this option, you will be prompted for the date to delete
codes prior to in the format MMDDYY (month, day and year each as 2 digits). All
codes issued prior to this date will be deleted. For example: if you enter 050692,
all valid codes issued prior to May 6, 1992 will be marked for deletion. Note 00-
89 = 2000-2089 and 90-99 = 1990-1999.
The console will then prompt you to either cancel only the "0=Free" codes (total
price was "$0.00") or the "1=All" codes. Press [0] then [ENTER] to delete only
free codes or [1] then [ENTER] to delete all codes. Once you have made this
selection, the console will print a report indicating the number of valid codes
currently in memory and the number of codes that will be deleted by your current
request. At this point, you must press [9][9][ENTER] to confirm that you wish to
cancel the codes selected. If you enter any other number or just press [ENTER],
the command will be aborted and no codes will be deleted.
