PRICE LOOK-UP (PLU)
A total of 1,600 Price Look Up codes (PLUs) are available on this cash register. Each PLU can be programmed with a
12 character description that will both appear on the display and print on the tape. The Price-Look Up system allows for
fast, accurate entry of an item and automatically records the number of items sold.
The first step in programming PLUs is to assign a PLU number between 1 and 1,600 to each sales item. Second, the
PLU Number must then be linked to a Department key which has the appropriate Tax Status needed for that PLU. For
example, if PLU #1 is required to charge tax, then link it to a Department key which is set up for tax. Whereas, if PLU #2
is not required to charge tax, then link it to a Department key which is programmed for no tax. Lastly, a description can
be programmed to identity each PLU.

* NOTE: If you are programming PLUs using consecutive numbers (starting at 1, 2, 3, etc.), it is not necessary to
