Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain the efficient use of a check number by setting the maximum data and the minimum data of the check number in a usable range to the memory of a clerk to register smoothly a check number file. CONSTITUTION:A central processing unit (CPU)4 controls an input/output device such as a keyboard 1, a printer 2 and a display device 3 and performs various calculations according to a processing program stored in a read only memory (ROM) and a random access memory(RAM). The total of the clerks A-E, and a counter start check#(minimum data) and an end check #(maximum data) are stored in the memory areas M1-M5 of the RAM. When the check number is opened newly, a data is stored from an entry buffer to a work area WRN1 and checked with the maximum and minimum values stored in a WRN2.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of the Invention) The present invention relates to an electronic gear, Schrezoster, and more specifically,
The present invention relates to an electronic cash reno star that allows easy use of a new check number file.

(Background of the Invention) Electronic gates conventionally used in restaurants and the like equipped with check number files7. ．． - In RenoStar (hereinafter referred to as ECR), when using a new check number file, a clerk (clerk) manually enters an arbitrary number and registers the check number file. In this unworkable ECR, when the number of clerks increases, the check number file used by other clerks and the number manually entered when trying to use it again overlap, and a new check number is created with an error and 1. Registration will not be possible. For this reason, each clerk runs a check until an unused check number file is found.
You have to enter the check number many times, and as a result, it is time-consuming to register a new check number file, and the ECR
There were two inconveniences: the registration of - was not carried out smoothly.

Furthermore, if a system is used that transmits the data registered in the ECR to the kitchen, many items are not conveyed smoothly to the kitchen, resulting in customers having to wait, which leads to the inconvenience of poor service quality. Ta.

(Object of the invention) The object of the present invention is to solve the problems of the conventional type described above.
An object of the present invention is to easily and smoothly register a new check number file in an ECR using a check/renumber file system. Ches that each clerk can use by setting check numbers in the usable range - minimum data (start check ≠) and maximum data (end check, ri 41-) of the bow in the memory of each clerk.

The feature is that files are clearly defined.

According to the present invention configured as described above, a usable check number file for each clerk is set in advance, so it is possible to prevent erroneously inputting the check number of another clerk.) Check number file registration becomes smoother, which in turn improves service to customers. It is still possible to use check numbers efficiently, and since there is only one check number used for each clerk, it is also possible to check sales, IL1 attendance, etc. for each clerk. Become.

(Explanation of Examples) The present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows the appearance of an ECR according to one embodiment of the present invention.

In the figure, 1 is a keychain, 2 is a printer, and 3 is a printer.

, 10:3 is 1~;35 department code (- or product name)
104 is a numeric key for entering O to 9 and OO, clear key CLR and @
This is a group of keys, etc.

Figure 3 is a block diagram showing the general configuration of the ECR, in which the central control unit (CPU) 4 is a read-only memory (ROM) and a random access memory (R,
Controls input/output devices such as the keyboard 1, printer 2, and display 3 according to processing programs stored in the AM), monitors operating procedures, transfers data, and performs various tasks.
Do the following. The above ROM stores the block memory that determines the operation of the CPU 4, and the RAM stores the blocks that determine the operation of the CPU 4.
102, memory areas M and -M5 assigned to A- and -E, a work area W, and a flag area F are also configured. In each memory area M1 to M5, the total and counter of each clerk A and H, start check≠, and end check≠ are stored. Work area W has WRN 1 and WRN 2.
is stored in memory, and data is stored from the numeric buffer at the time of setting, and the start check≠, end check, and ri≠, respectively. When the check≠ is newly opened, data is stored from the number buffer in WRN 1, and becomes the data of the newly used check≠.

WRN 2 is memory area M of Clark A to E, =M
The value of start check, RI≠ and the value of end check, RI stored in memory 5 are entered at any time, and the magnitude is checked with the value stored in WRN1.

When WRCLK is set, the data in the numeric buffer is entered as Clark≠. When Choi and Rihiro are new Osin, Clark≠A-E enters with Clark key ON. F
N becomes FN=1 when the numeric key 1 or 4 is pressed, and becomes FN-0 when a numeric key other than the numeric key is pressed. Fal in flag area F is set by pressing the numeric key 1 and the @ key in 04 for the first time.Fal 1. = 1, Fa”2 is @key 2
After the second push up, Fa 2 =1.

Figure 4 shows the key/response of the start chain, ri ≠ and end chenovna setting force method, and the start chain, ri ≠
Operate in the order of → @ key → End check ≠ → @ → Clark ≠ → New key.

FIG. 5 shows the key activation when using a check valve for the first time, and the operation is performed in the order of the set clark ghee -> check collar -> new key.

Next, referring to the graph 1-chart when performing the gear/control operations shown in FIGS. explain.

Figure 6 shows the data processing procedure at the time of setting. First, set the mode selector switch 1.0 +, and press the numeric key to change the numeric value Stored in the buffer and input 1 to FNK. Next, press the @ key to check whether FN = 1 or not, 143 constant l ~, F N =-=
Since it is 1, move to the next sudev.

However, since Fa 1 = 1 is not stored in memory, start check
]. Then 1 is input to Fal and 0
is input to FN. Next, the above operation is repeated 7 to determine Fal=], and this time it is Fal=], so the end check reads WR from the number buffer.
Stored in N2. Then ■ is input to Fa2,
O is input to FAL, and it goes to 0 or FN and returns to the start again.

Next, by pressing the new key, it is determined whether Fa2=1, and if Fa2=1, the next step is performed.

Proceed to. Then, it is determined that WRN 1≦WRN 2, and N
If it is O, it is displayed as an error, and if it is YES, the contents of the numeric buffer are stored in WRCLK. Then, W.R.
A Clark address is calculated from CL, and the address is updated to the area of Star Dognic≠. And wRN
The data of l is deposited into the start check≠. Now, change the address to the end checker, RI≠'s Nilia, and store it in the N2's button or digit, -7 and RI#. -C,wRNl,,WRN2.

Send the WRCLK value to the print buffer and print. Finally, O is input to FN:F, and Fa2, and the process returns to the start.

Next, FIG. 7 shows the data processing procedure when check, re≠ new auto.
When registered and the set clerk key A=E is pressed, this clerk≠ is stored in WRCI,K. Next, when the numeric key is pressed 1:, this numeric key is input to the numeric buffer, and 1 is entered into FN. Then, a new gear
Push up, check, ri≠ data or WR from the number buffer
Stored in N1.

Next, Clark AT/S is sent out from WRCLK by 31, and the start check is stored in WRN2. Then, in the next step, compare WRN 1 and WRN 2 in No 0, ■ If Nl <: WE conversion N2, it is displayed as an error and 7, and if WRN 1 ≧ WRN 2, start check # Since you have selected a larger number, Y
Become ES and proceed to the next step. Next, end check≠ is stored in WRN 2 and compared with WRN].

Then, if WRN 1, > WRN 2, it means that the end check ≠ selected a larger number.
Displays an error. If this is WRN]≦■N2, this means that a number smaller than End Check≠ has been selected, and the selected number key is within the appropriate range, so Check≠File becomes a new automatic. FIG. 7 is an example of setting printing.
