3 Introduction The UP-3500 inter-register communication (IRC) system consists of one master machine and up to 31 satellite machines which are all interconnected by the local area network (LAN) to provide data transmission among them. This system allows the manager to exercise centralized control over the satellites through the master.
4 1 Inline Operation (1) Message displayed during inline communication 1)The message as shown below is displayed at the master which is engaged in IRC transmission. ex.: The above message is also displayed at the satellite which is engaged in transmission for system resetting.
5 (2) Error messages If an error occurs, a corresponding error message is displayed. To clear an error message, touch the [CLEAR] key. Some of the error messages are listed below as examples.
6 When the open store operation is performed at the master, the IRC system is opened. POS can send AT command by this job. This function controls a modem, but doesn't have control over registration and T-LOG. The procedure for the open store operation is as follows.
7 In the IRC system, the following two types of clerk file systems are available: a centralized system and an individual system. In the centralized clerk file system, the master manages transaction data on clerks within the IRC system. In the individual clerk file system, each machine manages its clerk transaction data.
8 1) When the clerk signs on at a machine other than the one used in his or her previous operation: In this case, the overlapped clerk data is sent from the master to the satellite (transfer of overlapped clerk data).
9 The sign-on operation is intended to assign a clerk to a machine (satellite/master) and enable him or her to make registrations at the machine. If a clerk successfully signs on at a machine, his or her clerk code appears on the LCD of the machine. Sign-on procedure (This procedure is the same as for clerk assignment at a standalone machine.
10 A clerk sign-on report can be generated at the master. This report is used to know which clerks are currently in sign-on state at which machines. Report generation procedure 1. Enter the PGM2 mode from the mode selection window. 2. Select “1 READING” from the displayed menu.
11 The sign-off operation is intended to cancel the assignment of a clerk to a machine and terminate his or her registration operation. The sign-off operation at a machine (master or satellite) can be done only for the clerk who is in sign-on state at the machine and not in the middle of a registration entry.
12 When you have completed the programming at the master, you can distribute the preset data from the master to all or desired satellites in the IRC system. (1) Initial downloading For initial setup of the IRC system, follow the downloading procedure below.
13 List of downloading jobs (PGM2 mode) Downloading Jobs Description Department preset data Dept./PLU key preset data for direct depts./PLUs PLU/EAN, link PLU table, condiment table, promotion table, .
14 • The PLU/EAN file (INITIAL D/L and MAINTENANCE D/L) does not include stock data. • The OPTION file includes the following data: Optional feature preset, EAN deletion term, scale preset, happy hour, zero skip, general report format, trans. report format, clerk report format, hourly report, DEPT.
15 In the IRC system, the following two types of GLU file allocation system are available: a centralized system and an individual system. In choosing the type of GLU file system, please consult your authorized SHARP dealer. (1) Centralized GLU file system In this system, only the master has control over GLU data stored in its GLU file.
16 In the IRC system, the following two systems for PLU/EAN stock control are available: a centralized system and an individual system. In choosing the type of PLU/EAN stock control system, please consult your authorized SHARP dealer. Centralized system Preset stock data is stored only in the master.
17 All REG-mode transaction data in each satellite is saved in its T-LOG buffer. T-LOG polling is a data collecting system in which the master collects data from the T-LOG buffers in satellites. A request for T-LOG polling is issued from the satellite to the master when the number of data records in its T-LOG buffer exceeds a predetermined number.
18 In the IRC system, the following two systems for PLU/EAN data control are available: a centralized system and an individual system. In choosing the type of PLU/EAN data control system, please consult your authorized SHARP dealer. Centralized system PLU/EAN sales data is centrally controlled by the master.
19 (2) In case that the master has a dynamic EAN file and satellites don't: (3) In case that both the master and satellites have dynamic EAN files: PLU/EAN main file Dynamic EAN file Dynamic EAN .
20 When a preset data (unit price and associated department) of an EAN item is changed at a satellite or the master using the price change function, its PLU/EAN main file or dynamic EAN file is updated with the new data.
21 In the IRC system, customer data is centrally controlled by the master. Customer data which is temporarily stored in the T-LOG buffer of a satellite is sent to the master by T-LOG polling and controlled by the master. (For further information on T-LOG polling, see page 17.
22 In restaurants or the like, every terminal does not need an external printer (a receipt/report printer, journal printer, bill printer or kitchen printer). One external printer connected by an RS-232 cable can be shared by two or more UP-3500 machines.
23 2 Consolidated and Individual Reports The system can generate two types of sales reports: consolidated reports (reports on all or specified machines in the system) and individual reports (reports on individual machines). At the master, you can generate consolidated reports on all or specified machines in the system.
24 (1) Report generation procedure To generate various reports, use the following procedure, referring to the list of consolidated reports on the following pages. 1. Enter the required operating mode (OPXZ, X1/Z1 or X2/Z2) from the mode selection window.
25 (2) List of consolidated reports (SYSTEM READING/RESETTING) OPXZ X1/Z1 X2/Z2 Report type Description Operating modes Required data/Remarks General report Department by group report Individual depar.

27 (1) Report generation procedure To generate various reports, use the following procedure, referring to the list of individual reports on the following pages. 1. Enter the required operating mode (OPXZ, X1/Z1 or X2/Z2) from the mode selection window.
28 (2) List of individual reports (READING/RESETTING) OPXZ X1/Z1 X2/Z2 Report type Description Operating modes Required data/Remarks General report Department by group report Individual department gro.
29 OPXZ X1/Z1 X2/Z2 Report type Description Operating modes Required data/Remarks All clerk report Individual clerk report All cashier report Individual cashier report Hourly report (by specified rang.
30 In a system which has no save file and has been programmed so as to automatically lock satellites after resetting when general resetting, hourly resetting, cashier resetting, clerk resetting (only the case of individual clerk file system) or daily net resetting report is taken, the data in the satellites concerned is not cleared.
31 As stated earlier (see pages 7-8), there are two systems for collecting clerk sales data: a centralized system and an individual system. (1) Centralized clerk file system In this system, the transaction data on a clerk in each satellite will be transmitted to the master each time the clerk signs off.
32 (2) Individual clerk file system In this system, you can generate consolidated reports on full clerk or individual clerk at the master only. At each machine, you can generate an individual X or Z report on transactions made by an individual clerk or all clerks assigned to the machine.
33 The cashier file management method in the IRC system employs individual system. A cashier who is assigned to a machine can carry out registrations and other operations at that machine. In this system, you can generate consolidated reports on full cashier or individual cashier at the master only.
34 Each machine can be programmed to enable the Compulsory Cash/Check Declaration (CCD) function. This function compels the operator to enter the cash/check amount in the drawer just before an individual clerk/cashier Z/Z1 report, all clerk/cashier Z1 report, or a general Z1 report is issued.
35 Even when a machine has been programmed to disallow entries after individual general resetting or has not been programmed to allow automatic clearing operation of the individual resetting memory at the time of consolidation general resetting, you can unlock the machine through reset clear operation in order to restart entries.
