Item Registrations
All registrations are accumulated into PLU’s. Keyboard PLU’s are fixed keys on the keyboard
(like traditional department keys) that access specific PLU’s.
• Depending upon the specific model and the program installed, there will be different
number of keyboard PLU keys. Flat keyboard models (SPS-320 and SPS-340) provide
100 PLU’s on the default keyboard. The raised key model (SPS-345) provides 21 PLU’s
keys in the standard configuration. This can be expanded by your dealer to 63 PLU’s.
Your specific program may have a more or less PLU keys depending upon how key
locations are set.
• Traditional code-entry PLU’s can also be registered by entering the PLU number and
pressing the PLU key.
• If optional scanning is implemented, the PLU number corresponds to the UPC number
and a PLU is registered when an item is scanned.
As you make item registrations, you can follow your entries by viewing the display. Remember
that the sale and tax totals are updated automatically with each entry.
Using Function Look-Up Keys
Because the SPS-300 keyboard is programmable, both the selection and location of function keys
may vary from one register to another.
You must pay particular attention to the two function look-up keys, FUNCTION LOOK-UP #1
and FUNCTION LOOK-UP #2. Each of these keys can contain a list of up to 8 functions that
can be used as if they were located on separate keys. For example:
• If a function, such as CHARGE1, is located on a function look-up key, as it is on the
default keyboard, then you must access it by pressing the appropriate function look-up
key, then pressing the digit that represents the function, instead of pressing a key on the
keyboard.
• If you need to make a numeric entry before a function that is located on a function look-
up key, first press the numeric key or keys, then press the function look-up key and press
the digit that represents the function you wish to select.
