SAM4s ER-5115 Electronic Cash Register 
Default Program
 
The original program installed in the ER-5115.  The register has a default program that makes it 
operational after a RAM clear.  Nearly all option, rate, and status programs are set to zero as the 
default condition. 
Default Level
 
The level set, via programming, as the main, or surface level.  When levels are programmed as Pop-
up levels, the keyboard returns to this level automatically. 
Discount (Item) 
An item discount (coupon or %) subtracts an amount or percentage from the price of an item.  This 
subtraction nets the PLU total. 
Discount (Sale) 
A sale discount (coupon or %) subtracts an amount or percentage from the entire sale. 
Error Condition 
An error condition signals that illegal operation has occurred.  It is identified by an audible tone and 
an error descriptor appearing on the display. 
Error Correct 
An error correct operation voids the last item entered, it must be used within a sale. 
Gallonage 
Gallonage is a status that may be assigned to a PLU.  Gallonage PLUs accept a price, but print both 
the price and the quantity of gallons sold.  The quantity of gallons is computed from the price per 
gallon, which is set as the preset price in Program 200.  
Hash 
Hash status for a PLU allows the amount of the PLU entry to add to the sale, as well as the individual 
PLU total on the PLU report.  However, the amount is not added to the Net sales, Gross sales, or 
Grand total.  Hash status is used to account for sales of items such as lottery tickets, or bottle 
deposits, that do not represent reportable income.   
HALO 
The high amount lock-out (HALO) limits the amount allowed to be entered in a PLU, or function key. 
Journal 
The journal tape is a separate tape that records all of the transactions on the register.  This is the 
management's copy of all register activity.
