PGM Mode
OVERVIEW
The ER-A410 and ER-A420 generally consists of two types of programming that are managed by the
mode key.
1. PGM2-mode programming: PGM jobs that are 2xxx
2. PGM1-mode programming: PGM jobs that are 1xxx
NOTE:PGM-1 jobs (1xxx) may be performed in the PGM1 or PGM2 mode, where the PGM-2
jobs (2xxx) may only be performed in PGM2 mode.
The PGM2-mode programming is primarily used when installing the ECR and for maintaining select
presets intended only for managers/owners.
The PGM1-mode programming is intended for settings that change frequently.
1. Programming Sequence:
When installing the ER-A410 and ER-A420, it is recommended to follow the sequence outlined
below:
1) Department Settings: This should be structured towards the balancing procedures required
2) PLU Settings
3) Keyboard Assignment
4) Cashier Setings
5) Tax Rate
6) All other settings
IMPORTANT NOTE:
When using PC Link or installing peripherals such as the Slip printer, the sequence may vary.
The RS232 settings for PC-Link and peripheral connections will be described in a separate
section.
2. General Rule:
When making preset entries, the following rule will apply:
1) If an error occurs prior to completing the 1st valid preset entry, it is necessary to depress the
[CL] key and beginning the PGM Job# again from the beginning.
2) If an error occurs on second and subsequent preset entries, then depress the [CL] key and
re-enter the desired values.
