1. INTRODUCTION
Making the most of the functions of the previously developed MA-1900 stand-alone, the MA-1900
can be developed into a master-satellite system.
Using a master terminal designed by adding a master IFU board to an MA-1900 stand-alone and
satellite terminals to which satellite IFU boards are added, the MA-1900 M/S system can comprise
an M/S Manual PLU Entry system made up of up to 32 units or an M/S Scanning System by which
system files having up to 8,200 items can be held by a maximum of 4 units. By connecting a PC,
the system can also be expanded into a transaction data capture system.
Operational functions on each terminal ECR basically stay the same as on a stand-alone ECR,
except those deleted, changed, or added for this M/S system use which are described in this
manual.
Therefore, any detail information not described here, please refer to the Owner’s Manual for the MA-
1900 series issued for the stand-alone level.

2. SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
J
This system can be configured as one of the following two system types. The number of MA-1900
ECR units that can be connected in each system is indicated below.
(1) M/S Manual PLU entry System Type Max. 32 units
(2) M/S Scanning System Type Max. 4 units

3. HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
3-1 COMMUNICATION SEQUENCE
TDLC (TEC Data Link Control) / 31.25KBPS
3-2 HARDWARE COMPOSITION
A Master-Satellite System is realized by adding the following in-line units to each stand
alone ECR:
Master (or Backup Master) ECR
Stand-alone Spec. + Master In-line Unit
Satellite ECR
EOl'11006
• Interface Board
• In-line Cable
• RTR position (on GT Lock) and RTR Key
Stand-alone Spec. + Satellite In-line Unit
• Interface Board
• In-line Cable
NOTE: The components for the Backup Master ECR is exactly the same as those for the
Master ECR. The distinction in an actual system loop will be made by the “RTR**
position of the GT Lock for the Master use and the Neutral Position for Backup
Master use. (A key operation to declare the change from Master to Backup Master,
or vice versa, is further necessary.)
3-3 HARDWARE DIFFERENCES FROM STAND-ALONE ECR
1) GT LOCK (for Master ECR or Backup Master ECR)
The “RTR” position is newly provided.
\ * / QJ2 (For a Satellite ECR, the lock remains the same as a
stand-alone ECR.)
“RTR” position
Must be turned to this position when the ECR is
installed as the Master ECR and any in-line mode
operations are required.
(Neutral Position) . .
A Backup Master ECR must keep this potion while it is
used as a Satellite ECR. When the original Master
ECR becomes down, the Lock can be turned to the
“RTR” position to enable this ECR to be used as a
new Master ECR of the system. (Refer to the NOTE in
3.2 above.)

4. ADDITIONAL FUNCTION KEYS AND REGISTERING
PROCEDURE
The following are keys that can be installed on a MA-1900 ECR of Master or Satellite specifications,
in addition to the stand-alone specifications, and the registering procedure using each of the keys.
EOl-11006
PLU
PLU ADD KEY ([PLU ADD])
ADD
This key is used to add the table of an unprogrammed PLU item (Manual Entry
PLU or Barcode Label Item) to the PLU program file memory of the ECR.
The PLU can be entered by first depressing this key, next entering the PLU Code
(or by scanning the barcode), and then entering the link Department Code and the
preset price. The PLU entered in this way can be entered normally from the next
time on.
REGISTERING PROCEDURE FOR AN URGENT PLU TABLE ADDITION
This operation is effective when an “E04” error (undefined code) occurs on entering a PLU
code or scanning a barcode of an item in the ordinary entry procedure. The error means
that the PLU code has not been programmed in the PLU file. By operating the following
procedure, the PLU is entered as a sale item, and at the same time, it is programmed as an
additional PLU so that it can be entered as an ordinary PLU thereafter.
Mode Lock: REG, MGR, or El / GT Lock: Neutral (operable on Master or Satellite ECRs)
[PLU ADD] -► ( |Quantitv| [X] )

An operator attempts to enter 4 items of PLU Code 1234 at unit price $2.00 (linked to
Department 3) during a sale, but an '*E04” error results. Therefore, the following is
operated to enter and program this PLU item.
Mode Lock & GT Lock positions: same as preceding item entries.

CARD
CARD CHECK KEY ([CARD CHK])
CHK
This key is used to enter the specific card No. of the credit card for payment of a
sale of a customer. (Please note that the [CARD No.] key is used to enter a
Credit Card Company Classification Code but not the specific No. printed on each
card.)
On a card No. entry through this key, the No. is inquired to the "Card No. Negative
Check List" programmed in the Master ECR file. When the No. is not found in the
list, the card No. will normally be entered and a finalizing operation using a Media
Key can follow. When the No. is found in the list, an "E28” error results and the
status code No. 1 to 9 (indicating why the card cannot be accepted) is displayed in
the AMOUNT portion of the Operator Display. The operator should call the
manager as to handling of this card.
REGISTERING PROCEDURE FOR A PAYMENT WITH A CARD
Mode Lock: REG / GT Lock: Neutral (operable on Master or Satellite ECRs)
— —► [Number printed on the card| [CARD CHK] —► —
This operation is allowed at the top of a sale or any time during a sale if before finalizing
the sale. When an “E28" error results, the operator calls the manager. The manager
then can select one of the following solutions:
1. Tells the customer that the card cannot be accepted referring to the displayed
status code (1 to 9). (Or, lets the operator do so without calling the manager.)
2. To allow payment by this card as an exceptional case for some reason, turns
the Mode Lock to “MGR” position using the MGR or MA key, and depresses
the [CARD CHK] key. The card No. is then accepted and printed.
NOTE: The card check function is activated in the REG mode only; in MGR or □ mode,
the card No. entry is accepted without an inquiry to the “Card No. Negative
Check List“. Please also note that the card check function can be set to
“active" or “non-active" in the SET or MGR mode.
ex.) An operator enters sale items of a customer. When all the items have been entered,
the customer says that he wants to pay for the sale with his “ABC Credit Company”
card. The No. printed on the card is 12345-678-901. (Presumed that the Card
No. 1234-678-901 is not in the Card No. Negative Check List, and that the store assigns
Code 1 to the “ABC Credit Card Company”.)
Mode Lock& GT Lock positions: same as preceding item entries.
The sale items have been entered.

5. MANAGER’S OWN OPERATIONS IN “MGR” MODE
5-1. RE-ENTRY OF TRANSACTION DATA RECORDED OUT OF
TRANSACTION BUFFER
This operation is applied only when a PC (Personal Computer) is connected to the system
and the system option “Transaction Data Sending YES’* is selected.
The transaction data, arising from sale entries on the ECR, are first stored into the
“Transaction Buffer” of the ECR. Usually, the data in the Transaction Buffer are
automatically sent to the PC via the Master ECR in any of the following conditions:
When the empty area of the Transaction Buffer of the ECR becomes less than the
1.
programmed percent. In this case, the “REG” triangular lamp flickers to warn of the
near-full condition of the buffer. When the empty area regains more than the
programmed percent, the lamp flickering is canceled.
When a Transaction Data Collection command is sent from the PC to the ECR via
2.
the Master ECR.
However, in case Transaction Buffer becomes full before sending the transaction data in the
buffer to the PC, the message “ = = - = =TRAN FULL= = = = = ” is printed after the
Trailer Line (the line of Date, Time, Register No., Clerk ID, Consecutive No.) on the journal.
Sale entries thereafter can normally be registered but the data cannot be stored into the
Transaction Buffer. These data should be re-entered later in the “RE-ENTRY MODE”, as in
the following, to be sent to the PC as transaction data, referring to the sale entry record
marked with the TRAN FULL message on the journal.

total memory.
3. Print occurs on both the receipt and the journal.
4. The drawer will not open.
5. No print occurs on the Remote Slip Printer.
5-2. RE-ENTRY OF CHECK TRACK SALES DATA
This operation is applied only when the system option “Check Track (Customer File
Memory)” is selected instead of a Previous Balance Manual Entry. When a sale is entered
in the Charge Posting Mode and the sale data cannot be sent to the Check Track file
memory in the Master ECR, an “E26” error results, indicating that the specific Customer
File is in the in-use condition. Thereafter, that specific Customer File No. cannot be used on
any ECR connected to the in-line cable. In this case, the in-use condition of the Customer
File can be released by the following operation procedure.

3. As the “New Balance Amount”, a maximum of 10 digits can be entered within the range
from -1000000000 70,000,000.00; to +8999999999 ($89,999,999.99).
5-3. REVERSING THE CARD CHECK FUNCTION STATUS
As described for the (CARD CHK] key on page 5, it is programmable whether the Card No.
entered through the [CARD CHK] key is inquired to the “Card No. Negative Check List” or
not. The status can be set or reversed in the SET mode, and it can also be reversed in the
MGR mode as in the following operation procedure.
