Manual Programming
Basic Settings
The ECR 39T cash register can be programmed and, thus, adapted to meet individual requirements. Programming is divided into several areas. The Basic Program (FLAGS) is used to define general settings, such as date format and type of tax rate for example. The Logo Program is used to program information on the trader, welcome and farewell messages. The Name Program can be used to program the names of up to 6 clerks. The Credit-card Program can be used to program up to 9 credit-card names. The Department Program is used allocate prices and assignments to departments. The Price Look-Up Program is used allocate prices and assignments to PLUs. The Tax Rate Program can be used to enter up to four different tax rates. The Currency Conversion Program can be used to enter currency exchange rates. Note: Changing languages:
