Page 4 - Introduction
3 Introduction The UP-3500 inter-register communication (IRC) system consists of one master machine and up to 31satellite machines which are all interconnected by the local area network (LAN) to provide data transmissionamong them. This system allows the manager to exercise centralized control over ...

Page 21 - Price change function
20 When a preset data (unit price and associated department) of an EAN item is changed at a satellite or themaster using the price change function, its PLU/EAN main file or dynamic EAN file is updated with the newdata. Immediately after this, the new data is automatically distributed to all other ma...
Page 22 - Customer data control
21 In the IRC system, customer data is centrally controlled by the master. Customer data which is temporarilystored 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.) When a remote printer is...
