Casio ecr change battery

It uses a special Vanadium Pentoxide Lithium battery. It is available from Casio register dealers. If you are changing it yourself, make sure you have the power TURNED ON in reg mode while changing it. It has to have power to keep the memory while the battery is being changed or you lose the program.

For those who asked, there is a Casio TE-8000f and TE-8500f programming manual here:

Go to Casio Support Webpage:

Has the machine been turned off for a while? When did it last have the memory battery replaced? -----------------------------------------------------
If anyone needs a Casio TE-8500f manual, C-tech collective have it here: http://the-checkout-tech.com/manuals/cashregisters/Casio5.php

Highlight "flag clear" and press YES button. If it still does not work, you have a flat or (usually) faulty memory battery and it will need to be RAM cleared then re-programmed.

Programming manual: http://the-checkout-tech.com/manuals/cashregisters/Casio_TE-7000S_and_TE-8000F_and_TE-8500F_programming_manual.html
Service (repair) manual: http://the-checkout-tech.com/manuals/cashregisters/Casio_TE-7000S_and_TE-8000F_and_TE-8500F_service_version_2_manual.html

This can be quite involved if you want to use a stock inventory system. Some models require a complete re-programming so that extra memory can be opened for stock files. Normally your dealer would set this up before you receive the machine from new. It would be best to get a dealer to set up the stock areas and memory allocation.
The machine will show you the amount of everything sold if you do a PLU report at the end of the day. This may be enough for what you need so give it a try.

This indicates the actual processor in the machine has failed. Unfortunately the processor is the most important part of the whole register. If it is in fact a Casio register it can be repaired, but you will need to contact them. They are open right now actually, give them a call at 1-800-706-2534

If you flag clear it (no loss of data) then most models will give you a temporary clerk in order to program with. While you are in program mode, set a clerk button before you return to REG mode. Consult your manual for flag clear instructions as this model works differently for flag clearing. If you need a manual, c-tech collective has one here: http://the-checkout-tech.com/manuals/TOC/cashregisters/Casio/TE-7000S%20and%20TE-8000F%20and%20TE-8500F%20programming.TOC.pdf

Press your "Auto PGM" key until you see CF card. Then back up and or restore from there. You may need to format the card also, especially if it is over 4Gigs.

Hi.
It won't have anything to do with the battery. There was a known issue with the early printers in this series. The first one I had did my head in. I battled it for hours and then found out that there was a design fault in the printers (not Casios fault as the printers are made by another Co.) It is easy to tell if you have the early version or the second version with modification. The two easiest ways to tell are:

If the model number is printed on a little silver badge or just painted accross the panel. Badge = second version

Have a close look at the receipt printer. If it has a small motor on the end of it (closest to the front of the machine) then it is the second (fixed) version.

Let me know. If you are not sure, then take a photo of the machine and send me a link to it.

With the power switch off, hold down the RECEIPT FEED button and turn the register on.

Continue to hold the button until white text shows up on the screen.

Release the button and press the SUB-TOTAL button.

When the register asks "1. Flag Clear / 2. Something Else", select "1. Flag Clear" and press yes.

This is the Casio ECR equivalent of CTRL-ALT-DEL; it should fix the printer-cycling issue.

Cheers!
