INTRODUCTION

Thank you very much for your purchase of the SHARP Electronic Cash Register, Model ER-A410/A420. Please read this manual carefully before operating your machine in order to gain full understanding of functions and features. Please keep this manual for future reference. It will help you, if you encounter any operational problems.

IMPORTANT

• Install your register in a location that is not subject to direct sunlight, unusual temperature changes,

high humidity or exposure to water sources and keep away from heat and magnetic sources.

Installation in such locations could cause damage to the cabinet and the electronic components.

• The register should not be operated by an individual with wet hands. The water could seep into the interior of the register and cause component failure.

• When cleaning your register, use a dry, soft cloth. Never use solvents, such as benzine and/or thinner. The use of such chemicals will lead to discoloration or deterioration of the cabinet.

• The register plugs into any standard wall outlet (Official (nominal) voltage). Other electrical devices on the same electrical circuit could cause the register to malfunction.

• If the register malfunctions, call your local dealer for service - do not try to repair the register yourself.

• For a complete electrical disconnection, pull out the mains plug.

PRECAUTION

This Electronic Cash Register has a built-in memory protection circuit which is operated by rechargeable batteries. As you know, all batteries will, in time, dissipate their charge even if not used. Therefore to insure an adequate initial charge in the protection circuit, and to prevent any possible loss of memory upon installation, it is recommended that each unit be allowed to recharge for a period of 24 to 48 hours prior to use by the customer. In order to charge the batteries, the machine must be plugged in. This recharging precaution can prevent unnecessary initial service calls.

PRINTER

The printer is a receipt/journal dual station type thermal printer, and therefore it does not require any type of ink ribbon or cartridge. The average life of the printer is approximately 5 million lines.

When removing the printer cover, lift up its rear. When installing the printer cover, hook it on the pawls on the cabinet and shut it.

Caution: The paper cutter is mounted on the printer

(receipt side). Be careful not to cut yourself.

Your register is shipped with the print head release lever held by a white retainer in the lifted up position. Be sure to remove this retainer (see the figure at the right) and push down the print head release lever before you use the register.

Print head release lever

The print head can be lifted by the green lever on the right side of the printer. Pulling the lever forward lifts the print head up. If the paper becomes jammed and you need to move the head farther forward, you can pull the lever even further toward you and proceed with the removal of the jammed paper.

Do not attempt to remove the paper roll with the head in the down position. This may result in damage to the printer and print head.

Insert the keyboard sheet between the keyboard cover and the cabinet as illustrated below.

• Do not spread the keyboard cover too far as it might tear the tabs.

• Replace the keyboard sheet with a new one if by chance it gets wet. Use of a wet keyboard

sheet may cause problems.

• Be sure to use only SHARP-supplied keyboard sheets. Thick or hard sheets make key operations difficult.

• Place the keyboard sheet evenly under the keyboard cover.

• If you require a new keyboard sheet, please contact your dealer.

• The keyboard cover will eventually wear out. If your keyboard cover is dirty or broken, replace the

cover with a new one. For details, contact your authorized SHARP dealer.

No change occurs to register data.

OP X/Z: This setting allows cashiers/clerks to take X or Z reports for their

sales information. It can also be used for displaying the date/time and printing the employee arrival/departure times. And it can be used to toggle receipt state “ON” and “OFF” by pressing the

key. (This setting may be used only when your register has been

programmed for “OP X/Z mode available” in the PGM2 mode.)

REG: For entering sales PGM1: To program those items that need to be changed often: e.g., unit prices of departments or PLUs, and

percentages.

PGM2: To program all PGM1 programs and those items that do not require frequent changes: e.g., date,

time, or a variety of register functions

MGR: For manager’s and submanager’s entries

The manager can use this mode to make entries that are not permitted to be made by cashiers/clerks – for example, after-transaction voiding and override entries.

X1/Z1: To take the X/Z report for various daily totals. X2/Z2: To take the X/Z report for various periodic (weekly or monthly) consolidation of totals.

This key locks and unlocks the drawer. To lock it, turn 90 degrees counterclockwise. To unlock it, turn 90 degrees clockwise.

You can program alphanumeric characters for departments, PLUs, functions and so on in the character entry mode. There are two ways for programming characters: using character keys on the keyboard and entering character codes with numeric keys on the keyboard.

Using character keys on the keyboard

Enter a character according to the position in the programming keyboard layout.

Entering alphanumeric characters

To enter a character, simply press a corresponding character key. To enter a numeric character, press key and enter a number by ten keys (0 – 9).

[Ex.] Entering the character “135” :

➞

135

➞

To enter a space, press /key.

Entering double-size characters

: This key toggles the double-size character mode and normal-size character mode. The default is the

normal-size character mode. The double-size character is displayed with the letter “=” (ex. =S). [Ex.] To program the name “SHARP” in double size : Î➞

SHARP

➞

Entering lowercase letters

: You can enter a lower-case letter by using this key. Press Ókey just before you enter the lower-case

letter. This key also allows you to enter the characters/symbols shown at the upper right of keys. [Ex.] To program the name “Sharp” :

➞S ➞

➞

harp

➞

“( )”, “( ˆ)”, “( ¨)”, “ ( `)”, “( ´)”, “( ´´ )”, “( ° )”, and “( ˜)” keys are used only in combination with a character key. If the combination is unavailable, only a character key is entered. [Ex.] “Å” :

➞➞

Editing text

You can edit the text you have entered by deleting characters.



: Backs up the cursor for deleting the character or figure at the left of the cursor.

Entering character codes

Numerals, letters and symbols are programmable by entering the ºkey and character codes. See the “Alphanumeric character code table” on the next page. In this way, you can program characters other than the characters shown in the programming keyboard layout.

XXX

➞

XXX: Character code (3 digits)

•

Double-size characters can be made by entering the character code 253.

[Ex.] To program the name “SHARP” in double size

PROGRAMMING

This chapter illustrates how to program your cash register.

Basic instructions

All the programming items can be programmed by the Job-Code-Based Programming described later. However, your machine allows you to program some items using the Direct Programming, which does not require you to enter the job code.

Job-Code-Based Programming

Simplified procedure :

Direct Programming

Sample procedure :

Preparations for programming

Plug your machine into a standard wall outlet.

2. Turn the mode switch to the PGM1 or PGM2 position.

To set the mode switch to the PGM1 position, use the manager or submanager key; and to set it to the PGM2 position, use the manager key.

3. Check to see whether both journal and receipt rolls are present in the machine. If they are missing, install

journal and receipt paper rolls correctly referring to the procedure in “4. Installing and removing the paper roll” under “OPERATOR MAINTENANCE”.

4. Program necessary items into your machine.

Direct Programming

Date

Enter the day (one or two digits), month (two digits), and year (four digits : 2000 – 2099) in this sequence.

Time

For setting the time, enter the time in 4 digits using the 24-hour format. For example, when the time is set to 2:30 AM, enter 230; and when it is set to 2:30 PM, enter 1430.

• For display and print, 24-hour format is applied by default. To change it to 12-hour format, contact your dealer.

Your machine is equipped with 20 (ER-A410)/6 (ER-A420) standard departments and up to 99 optional departments. Your machine allows you to perform the following programming for each department.

• Tax status

Assign a tax status to each department.

• The tax system of your machine has been factory-set to automatic VAT1 – 4. If you desire to select any of automatic tax1 – 4, manual VAT1 – 4, manual VAT1, manual tax1 – 4, and the combination of automatic VAT1 and the automatic tax2 – 4, consult your dealer.

• When the combination of automatic VAT1 and automatic tax2 – 4 system is selected, one of the TAX2 (C), TAX3 (B) and TAX4 (A) can be selected in combination with VAT1 (D).

Example: ABCD = 1001, 0011, 0101

• Compulsory item validation printing

If item entries must be validated, program corresponding departments for compulsory item validation printing.

• Registration type (SICS/SIF/Normal type)

SICS: If the first registration is to a department set for SICS, the sale is finalized as soon as the department

key is pressed. If the sale is preceded by registrations to departments not set for SICS, a sale to a department set for SICS does not finalize and can be repeated until the

;

key is pressed.

SIF: Whenever a sale is made to a department set for SIF, the sale is finalized as soon as the department

key is pressed.

• Type of unit price entry (open and preset/preset only/open only/inhibit department key)

You may select one of four types of unit price entry for each department.

• HALO (High Amount Lockout)

You can set upper limit amounts for each department. The limit is effective for operations in the REG mode and can be overridden in the MGR mode. HALO limit is represented by two figures as follows. Programmed item (H and l) is the same as H x 10

• Commission group number

A commission group number (0 - 9, 0: non commission) can be assigned to each department.

• Group number

You can assign departments to a maximum of 14 groups (1 through 14, 0: non group).

Your machine is equipped with 500 standard PLUs. Your machine allows you to perform the following programming for each PLU.

• Tax status

Assign a tax status to each PLU/subdepartment.

• When the combination of automatic VAT1 and automatic tax2 – 4 system is selected, one of the TAX2 (D), TAX3 (C) and TAX4 (B) can be selected in combination with VAT1 (E).

Example: BCDE= 1001, 0011, 0101

• A PLU not programmed for any of these tax statuses is registered depending on the tax status of

the department which the PLU belongs to.

• Type of unit price entry (open and preset/preset only/open only/inhibit PLU/subdepartment)

You may select one of four types of unit price entry for each PLU/subdepartment.

Inhibit PLU/subdepartment: inhibit the entry of any assigned PLU/subdepartment code. This mode does not

clear the PLU/subdepartment program data.

• Commission group number

A commission group number (0 – 9, 0: non commission) can be assigned to each PLU/subdepartment.
