Currency Conversion
If you normally accept currency from a neighboring nation, you can program the SAM4s ER-
5200M/5240M to convert the subtotal of a sale to the equivalent cost in the foreign currency. Four
foreign currency conversion keys are available. See "Function Key Assignment Programming" on
page 84 to place currency conversion keys on the keyboard. You also need to program the conversion
factor. For example, if the US dollar (home currency) is worth 1.3720 Canadian dollars (foreign
currency), the conversion factor is 1.3720. See "Instructions for Currency Conversion Rate - Program
90" on page 127 to set a conversion rate.
Note: The change due is computed in home currency!
