PLU (Price Look-Up) and Subdepartment Programming

The PLU function allows speedy key entries whereby a price is automatically called up when a direct PLU key is pressed or a code is entered. The subdepartment is a kind of “open PLU”, which requires you to enter a price before the direct PLU key is pressed or after the PLU code is entered. A maximum of 1200 PLU/subdepartment settings are possible. Each one belongs to a department and acquires the department’s parameters (tax status, sign, SICS and entry digit limit).

By default, PLU/subdepartment setting for 1 through 210 codes are available and they are assigned as positive PLUs associated with department 1 and preset unit price “0”.

To extend the number of PLUs/subdepartments, please refer to “EJ memory type” on page 73.
