For the departments 17 through 32, press the
department shift key.
Please note if you press the same key after using the
D
key, it acts as a repeat entry. For
example, when you register an item of dept. 17 using the
D
key and then an item of dept. 1
using the preset unit price, you should use the department code entry key described below for the
dept. 1 item. If you just press the
!
key to register dept. 1 item, it will act as a repeat entry of
dept. 17 item.

Enter a unit price and press the
M

2. PLU/subdepartment entries
For another merchandise classification, the cash register provides a maximum of 1200 PLUs/subdepartments.
PLUs are used to call up preset prices by a code entry. Subdepartments are used to classify merchandise into
smaller groups under the departments. Every PLU and subdepartment has a code from 1 to 1200, and should
belong to a department to obtain attributes of that department.
By default, the cash register is preprogrammed to be able to use 1 to 200 codes, and these 200 codes are set to
PLU mode and zero for unit price.
To extend the number of PLU codes to 1200, please refer to “EJ memory type” on page 40, and for other
PLU/subdepartment programming, refer to “PLU/Subdepartment Programming” on page 28.
