Currency Conversion Programming
If you normally accept currency from a neighboring nation, you can program the SAM4s ER-
260/265 to convert the subtotal of a sale to the equivalent cost in the foreign currency. To do this,
you need to program the conversion factor. For example, if the Amount (home currency) is worth
1.3720 Canadian dollars (foreign currency), the conversion factor is 1.3720.
NOTE: Foreign currency exchange rates may be stated as “foreign currency in dollars”, or
“dollars in foreign currency”. Use the rate stated in “dollars in foreign currency”
when you are programming this section.
Programming Currency Exchange Rates
1. Turn the control lock to the PGM position.

3. Enter a number from 0 to 4 to indicate the decimal position.
4. Press the C/CONV key.
