Function Key
Function Keys are separated into three categories, Function Key, Tender Key and MACRO Key. The options for
each will vary by key type selected. Refer to the Function/Tender Key Definitions List for specific information
about each key type. Custom descriptors up to 30 characters can be programmed on the keys.
For Example: a discount function key may be programmed and labeled to operate as a store coupon key.
Macro Keys are special function keys used to register a series of specified keystrokes without having to press each
key individually. Custom key descriptors up to 30 characters can be programmed on the keys. Consult with your
local dealer for information on setting up and using MACRO keys.
