Installation Notes

The following points must be noted when trying to communicate with the cash register.

1.For the NX-5400 01 type eprom linked to a serial comm port, the following flags must be programmed.

..* Flag 66 - 01000010

..* Flag 67 - 00100010

..* Flag 68 - 00100000

 

2.For the NX-5400 02 type eprom linked to a serial comm port, the following flags must be programmed.

..* Flag 91 - 01000010

..* Flag 92 - 00100010

..* Flag 93 - 00100000

 

3.The Terminal Address on each machine must always be programmed as a capital A.

 

4.For IRC connection to the MA-720, please note the following.

..* The Machine Number must be programmed on each cash register. Start from machine number 2 as machine number 1 is .....reserved for the MA-720.

..* Set the IRC baudrate at 19200 only.

..* Make sure that the barcode includes the check digit.

 

5.The wiring diagram for each cash register connected directly to a PC is as follows...

NX5400

ECR (9 Pin Male)______________PC (9 Pin Female)

2---------------------------------2

3---------------------------------3

4---------------------------------1

5---------------------------------4

7---------------------------------5

8---------------------------------7

9---------------------------------8

6.The wiring diagram for each cash register connected to a modem is as follows...

NX5400

ECR (9 Pin Male)______________Modem (25 Pin Male)

2---------------------------------2

3---------------------------------3

4---------------------------------4

5---------------------------------5

7---------------------------------7

8---------------------------------8

7. The following strings must be programmed into the cash register modem for it to operate. Use a terminal program, such as Hyper Terminal , to program the modem.

AT&F (loads default settings)

AT&N6 (sets fixed baud rate of 9600)

To set the baud rate at 19200 AT&N10

ATS0=2 (picks up line after 2 rings)

ATQ1 (don't respond to commands)

ATE0 (don't echo commands)

AT&W (saves changes in RAM)

 

8.The maximum levels set on the cash register for Departments and PLUs must correspond with the maximum levels set on the software.

 

9.There are two executable files in the ECRSoftware folder. When connecting to one machine in RS-232, run the ECRSoftware.exe file. When linking to more than one cash register in IRC, run the ECRSoftware Network.exe file. The reason for this is that the two protocols are completely different.

 

10.The Uniwell range works on a barcode system, therefore its important that all PLU items have a barcode. If this is not the case with certain items then these items will not appear on the PLU sales report, nor will stock be deducted after an End-of-Day extraction.

Error 5 when case size > 1 and order type = 0 has been fixed.

Description of first and last items to be printed has been included in the Print Barcode screen.

The GP% report was calculated as a markup rather than a true GP. This has been rectified

The GRV and Ordering modules have been extended to allow for decimal quantities
