The register allow you to program texts for department item names (page 17), PLU/subdepartment item names (page 22), function texts (page 62), clerk names (page 24), logo messages (page 25), foreign and domestic currency symbols (page 61), and training mode texts (page 62). When you program texts, place the keyboard sheet for text programming over the keyboard sheet for ordinal use. For the placement, please refer to “Keyboard sheet” section on page 7.

There are two ways for programming text; using character keys (shaded area shown below on the keyboard sheet for text programming) or entering character codes with numeric keys on the keyboard. For the latter way, refer to "Entering character codes with numeric keys on the keyboard" on page 50.
