Register Beep | The cash register makes a short beep each |
| time a key is pressed. This is normal and not a |
| cause for concern. |
|
|
Entry Error Beep | When using your cash register, you must |
| perform all operations in the correct order. If |
| you press the wrong key at the wrong time, an |
| alarm beep sounds and you see a message on |
| the display. The keyboard also locks. Press the |
| Clear key to continue. |
| When a transaction is started in the REG1 or |
| REG2 position, you must complete the sale |
| before moving the Mode key to another |
| position. When an operation is started but not |
| finished in the REG1 or REG2 positions, |
| turning the Mode key to another position |
| makes an alarm beep and you see an error |
| message on the display. Press the Clear key to |
| continue. |

Printer Error | If a PE appears in the display, check if you are |

Clearing an Error
The Clear key stops an alarm beep that happened because a key was pressed that was not correct for that operation.
The Clear key does not erase a transaction that was registered by an operating key and printed on the register tape.
To erase an entry after you press a key that printed the entry on the tape, use the Void key to correct the error.
If the cash register makes a loud error beep, press the Clear key to stop it.
