Remarks on program function

The data of devices can be updated, i.e. programmed, changed or cleared, with this program. Data which already exists can be displayed for information. A variety of different devices can be connected up to system units. These are required for operation of an MICROS Retail OSCAR POS program.

Devices are linked directly to an installation and a specific processing unit. A unique device no. and the name are assigned to each device.

Remarks on data fields

The following description deals with all available options for update of basic data.

As with nearly all programs the following also applies here:

The entry mask for this program may differ in your MICROS Retail OSCAR POS program. Some data fields may be missing.
There may be defaults or firmly defined selection options for some data fields. These cannot be updated in the current program.
Fields with enforced entry defined are to be found in the entry masks as are fields where entry is optional.
If the data record is updated over several pages of entry mask, the dialog window is reached by clicking onto the appropriate button with <Mouse key 1>.
The same procedure also applies to call up of another update program from this program.
In some cases you may find so-called "Switches" which are activated or deactivated by the user with <Mouse key 1>, depending on the setting. Activated switches have a dark top, deactivated switches are lighter.
