4. PROGRAMMING OPERATIONS EO1-11149
4.3 Condition Required for Programming Operations
4- 5
4.3 Condition Required for Programming Operations “CONDITION” is given at the top of each programming operation. The ECR must satisfy this condition
to perform programming operations.
There are two types of conditions:
“Any time outside a sale”
It means that the programming operation is allowed when a sale is finalized before going into any other
sale entry.
“After------ reset”
It means that the designated reset report must be taken before entering the programming operation.
Attempting operations without taking the report will cause an error. However, the condition “After------
reset” doesn’t mean “immediately after------ reset”.
After the designated reset report is taken, performing the programming operations in the SET, X, or Z
mode is within the condition “After------ reset”. And the operations are still allowed.
On the contrary, after the designated reset report is taken, entering sales data relating to the report
data in the REG, or - mode will cause the programming operation not to be allowed. And the same
reset report must be taken.
Thus the condition “After------ reset” indicates that all sales data relating to the report data must be zero
(except non-resettable memory data). Because of this “CONDITION” requirement, the report data will
be protected from any inconsistencies of sales data entered in the period from a resetting of t he report
to another resetting of the same report next time.
