NOTES:  1.  Data capture (DC) transaction files are not backed up. 
 

2.  The tables (center files) managed by the Master Terminal and used by each terminal via inquiries 

and PC transmission information tables are backed up. 

 

•  Sales data is backed up on a real-time basis. 
 

When sales data of the Master Terminal is updated, sales data of the Backup Master Terminal is updated 
at the same time. 

 
•  Backup data check function: 
 

Correspondence between the center files and backup data is checked every certain period of time. 

 
•  Backup data update process: 
 

When an error occurs in backup data, the following processing methods can be selected according to the 
program option setting. 
(1)  Automatic data copy 
 

When the version of the center file stored in the Master Terminal is different from that stored in the 
Backup Master Terminal, registration jobs are automatically prohibited, the backup data is properly 
exchanged.  While updating the backup data, each inquiry from the terminals may result in a 
“MASTER IS BUSY” error. 

(2)  Manual data copy 
 

When the version of the center file stored in the Master Terminal is different from that of data stored in 
the Backup Master Terminal, the Master Terminal gives a short beep at the timing of issuing the long 
receipt to warn that the data is not backed up properly.  The operator should update the backup data 
manually.
