Abstract

The cash register combines the function of the price tag issue including the stock name, code, and price and the processing function of sales information. The stock name and other data are stored in a memory through a keyboard at the stock program mode. The stored data is issued through a printer if desired. The stock program mode comprises steps: (a) forming the stock code with numberic key; (b) allocating the memory address according to the item or programmable logic unit (PLU) key; (c) entering the stock name with alphabet key; and (d) printing the imformation data on the tag.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cash register having a dot matrix printer for registering sales status according to a brand name and a product load, and more particularly, to a cash register having a price tag issuing function.

Conventional cash registers do not have a price tag generation function, so a business that registers a product using a cash register uses a separate price tag printing machine to print the price and attach it to the product. In the cash register, the sale registration of the product was possible only after a separate process of remembering the product name and price. As described above, a label printing machine must be purchased separately for the authentication of the price label at a store that uses a cash register. However, when the content printed on the label is only printed on the price, the product code and product name are not printed. There were inconveniences such as the inconvenience of having to check and the price tag printing process and the inconvenience of having to deal separately with the trade name and price registration of the cash register.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned inconvenience, by providing a method for storing the product name and product code and the price for each product in the cash register, and providing a means for authenticating the product name, product code and product price for each product The purpose of the present invention is to provide a cash register capable of collectively issuing a price tag after a preset of the corresponding item for each product.

Referring to the accompanying drawings, FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a general cash register, a central processing unit for controlling a whole system, a keyboard as an input unit, and a memory device as a storage unit. It consists of a printer and a display that are output units. The central processing unit stands on the keyboard and writes data to or reads data from the memory by a signal input from the keyboard. The central processing unit also displays the current status of execution through the display and prints and prints receipts of the desired data on the printer. Generate a control signal to perform.

The present invention is to provide a price tag issuing function to a conventional cash register as described above, and is intended to issue a price tag corresponding to a keyboard input from a printer by the presence of internal software. In order to record the parameters, the mode control switch is placed in the upper wind program mode, and then the control parameters of the product price and product name are input. When the mode control switch is located in the product program mode, the standard keyboard as shown in FIG. It is converted to 5 degrees. Conventionally, in order to register a product name, a product name must be converted to an ASCII code value and input. That is, to register a product name of "COLA", an ASCII decimal value of 07,79,76,65 has to be entered. In the mode keyboard, the internal program is converted by the commodity program dock key so that the trade name can be directly inputted using the alphabetic keys without going through the data conversion process described above.

Therefore, the product program is performed through the keyboard converted as shown in FIG. 5. First, the product code of the program target is input by using the numerical keys. Enter the item name. Subsequently, the X key is inputted to determine that the product name is finished. Then, a parameter for designating a control method for each product is input and the parameter input end can be determined by the H key.

The key input sequence of the product program mode as described above is as shown in FIG. This will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 6 as follows.

When the product program mode is specified (601), input from the keyboard.When the signal is read (602), the input signal is numeric key or 8603, item key or 605, or PLU (Programmable Logic Unit) key or 607. If the input key is a numeric key, the numeric key flag indicating the product code input step is set to 1, and the parameter and code are created (604). In order to calculate the item storage place when the item key is entered (606), and to store the PLU storage place when the PLU key is entered (608).

On the other hand, if an alphanumeric key other than the numeric key, item key, PLU key, and x key is input, the product name is created until the x key is input, and the numerical flag is 0 and the product flag is 1 (610). If the x key is input to indicate that the registration of the brand name is completed, the numeric key flag is checked (611). If the numeric key flag is 0, the parameter is recorded (612). If the numeric key flag is 1, the brand name flag is checked again. In operation 613, when the product name flag is 1, the product name is recorded (614).

The x key is used to determine the end of the input of the parameter and the end of the brand name registration. As shown in FIG. 8, the brand name registration and the parameter input may be performed in plural. It is recorded in the memory as shown in the fabric.

After completing the product name registration for each product load through the above process, when issuing a product price label is made by entering the product code 1 to start the issuance of the label as shown in FIG. .

FIG. 7 is a flowchart for performing the above-mentioned issue of commodity price tag. The code 1, which is the first code of the code to be issued, is set as code n, the code n is read from memory, and the product name of code n is printed. (702). Then reprint the code n to print the price (703) and increase the load n by one (704) to return to the initial state, which compares the current code n to the last load-in load 2 to print ( 701) The reading and printing of the code n are repeated until the final code 2 is obtained. Figure 3 shows an example of a commodity price label issued by the printing issue described above.

According to the cash register to which the present invention is applied as described above, in the process of registering the product name in the product program mode, the user can conveniently input the product name by using the alphabet key without the code conversion procedure of the data. By issuing a price tag corresponding to a designated code using a printer of a cash register, there is an advantage in that economic transfer without a separate price tag issuing machine and minimizing the user's trouble in accordance with a separate issuing operation.
