PROGRAMMING ALPHANUMERIC DESCRIPTIONS
General Information: When programming the alpha descriptions for Departments, PLUs, Clerks and the Store
Name/Logo Message and Commercial Messages, it is recommended to use the Alpha keyboard (shown below).
The department keys are clearly labeled with all the letters needed to program these descriptions. So, when you
are programming alpha descriptions, simply use the department keys to spell out the words you require. Please
note that the letters in the lower green section of the keys are accessed by first pressing the [DEPT] key. You may
require certain symbols or lower case characters that are not found on the Alpha Keyboard. For example, if you
require a space between words, or if you require the "/" symbol, or "-", you will need to refer to the Alphanumeric
Code Chart shown on the next page.
The [EC] key functions as a back space and delete key when programming alpha characters.
PLEASE NOTE: Only capital letters of the alphabet are on the Alpha Keyboard.
