Advanced programmings and registrations

Transactions in local and foreign currencies

Using Ekey, you can register other currencies with exchange calculations. For example, registering items in local currency and payment in US dollars etc.

To set currency symbol (only ¥, £, and $) on receipts, see page E-65.

„„To set currency rate

1 From the following table, check the relation of ADD values (number of decimal place e.g., 1.23 = (ADD = 2), 12.3 (ADD = 1), 123 (ADD = 0) between the main currency and a sub currency.

Case

Main Currency

Sub currency

Exchange rate value N

 

 

 

 

1

ADD =2

ADD = 0

100 [sub currency] = N [main currency]

2

ADD =2

ADD = 1

10 [sub currency] = N [main currency]

3

ADD =2

ADD = 2

1 [sub currency] = N [main currency]

 

 

 

 

4

ADD =0

ADD = 0

1 [sub currency] = N [main currency]

5

ADD =0

ADD = 1

0.1 [sub currency] = N [main currency]

6

ADD =0

ADD = 2

0.01 [sub currency] = N [main currency]

2 Calculate the exchange rate value.

Example 1: Main currency is £ (ADD 2) and sub currency is US$ (ADD 2) (Case 3 in the above table) and exchange rate $1.00 (sub currency) = £0.6374 (main currency), the exchange rate value N will be 0.6374.

Example 2: Main currency is DM (ADD 2) and sub currency is JP¥ (ADD 0) (case 1 in the above ta- ble) and exchange rate JP¥100. = DM 0.9524, the exchange rate value N will be 0.9524.

3 Turn the Mode switch to PGM position and select [Key Setting]. On the sub menu of key setting screen select [CE].
