Version 7 Register Setup: Sharp 410 and 420

Below are some basic instructions for setting up a register for communications with V7.  These steps should only be completed by a certified cash register dealer.  In order to set up communications, dealers must first program the register to allow communications, connect the register to the PC, and configure the software.  Below are instructions on programming the register and sample cable diagrams to help dealers connect the register to the PC. 

Register Programming:

 To program the Sharp 410/420 for RS232 communications, dealers must set up the Job#2690 codes for either port 1 or port 2.  After programming Job#2690, the register is set up for communications at 19200 baud.  To raise or lower the baud rate dealers should refer to Job#6112.  The recommended rate is 19200 for direct communications.  Modem communications may require a lower rate.

Version 7 communicates with both the RCC1A and RCC2A ROM versions. Please check the register ROM version with Job#959 code before creating a machine within the software.

Cabling:

The cabling specifications for the Sharp and V7 are identical to V6.
