Models Revision
 
A570 The A570 opened the PLU editor instead of the Dynamic UPC editor. This error was introduced on the
2/21/2008 release
 
ALL Corrected an issue where changes saved to the Server Presets were not sent during the "Transmit
Changes" on all models except the A420 and the UP3500. This was introduced on the 2/21/2008
release version
 
ALL Corrected an issue with the Base Quantity field resetting the value to 0 when saving the record. This
error was introduced in the 2/21/2008 release.
 
A530, A570, UP600,
UP3500
Corrected the issue in the PLU editor where the Kitchen Printer assignments were not refreshed after
using the Find button. This could cause the KP settings to be set to the value of the record the user was
previously on if a change to a PLU was saved after using the Find function.
 
ALL Corrected the "Modified" flag not being displayed when Departments are updated. This causes the
Department changes to not be sent in the Transmit Changes. (Adding/Deleting departments was still
properly triggered.)
 
A530, A570, UP600,
UP3500
Corrected the Theoretical Cost values not being saved in the PLU editor
 
UP3500 Corrected the Non Add Code data showing up as a 32 digit number instead of a 16 digit number.
 
A450 Corrected an error with the Link UPC data conversion. When importing or exporting the Link UPC table,
the data was incorrectly set to assign 2 decimal places to the UPC Code so when this data was sent to
the register, it did not link the UPCs from the main UPC properly
 
Change to existing feature
 
Models Revision
 
ALL Added the ability in the TLOG report to filter transactions based on the Non Add Code that was
captured during the transaction.

UP3500, UP600 After entering and exiting the UPC editor, the Select box used in the Combo Meal and PLU Menu
editors opened a list of UPCs to select from instead of PLUs.
 
A420 2A, A450, A570
Corrects various errors relating to opening the UPC editor.

not present.
The A570 opened the PLU editor instead of the UPC editor.
 
A450 Corrected an issue where in the Link UPC editor when assigning PLUs from the list. The first digit of the

within the Virtual Keyboard.

SKAN_Talk additions and revisions
 
 
Build date:  2/21/2008
 
New Feature
 
Models Revision
 
UP3300, UP3301 Added support for the UP3301 2H and UP3300 3G, 3I and 3N EPROM versions which includes support
for the new CAT settings, Combo Meals 21-99 and PLU Menus 51-99
 
ALL Added support to the Tax editor for the Tax Table / breakpoint fields. Previously, only the Tax Rate
option was supported.
 
UP600, UP3300,
UP3301, UP810
Added the ability to modify the Receipt Print LALO field on the Major Account ROM version. This is
accessible through a new tab in the Media Preset editor
 
UP3500
Adds Beta Support for the UP3500.
(No Virtual Keyboard and some reports not available in this version)
 
Modification to Existing Feature
 
Models Revision
 
ALL The function that builds the list of changes/deletes that gets sent to the register from the "Send
Changes" menu was re-written and has dramatically decreased the amount of time it takes to build
these jobs before the polling begins.
 
ALL Changed the Store Editor to allow up to 64 terminals in a single store when it for a Standalone
configuration. Previously the limit was 16 terminals
 
ALL
Added the ability to propagate program changes to/from the following tables:
Employee Preset
Mix & Match
Hourly Group Text
Job/Location Presets
Link UPC
RJE Time Scheduler
Default Menu Level
 
ALL Made a change to the display on the Condiment editor. When the frame for condiments 26-51 was
selected, it covered up the Table, Next Table and Repeat fields at the top of the screen
 
UP3300, UP3301 Added the IC Card Entry field to the Media Preset editor
 
ALL Added the ability to perform the SKAN_Talk registration while communicating over Port 80 as an
alternate port due to some computers with firewalls or other security measures restricting access to the
registration program.  Port 80 is a standard port used for HTTP and is less likely to run into security
issues.
 
Corrections
 
Models Revision
 
ALL Corrected a condition that can result in Windows returning a Winsock error during a polling retry after a
failed polling. In Setup, if the "Pause Between Polling" interval was set for greater than 30 seconds, and
the register gives a specific type of error (Inline error on RJE commands), the long pause causes
Windows to close the socket that SKAN_Talk was using. At this point, SKAN_Talk needed to be closed
and re-opened for communications to be re-established.
 
ALL Corrected an error when exporting the Tax presets for records that used the Tax Table instead of Tax
Rate. The Breakpoint fractional breakpoint values were truncated nearest dollar ($1.49 became $1.00;
$0.46 became $0.00)
 
A530, A550, A570 Corrected a issue where double sized characters were sent to the register as a the original character
preceded by a space instead of a making the character double sized.

Corrections
 
Models Revision
 
ALL Changed the PLU reports to display the 3 decimal fractional quantities.
 
UP600 Corrected an error in the CAT Preset editor where the Amount field did not read or write the value
properly when it was set to 100.00
 
A420U, A530 Corrected an error in logic where the PLU Price Change Scheduler would not display UPCs in the Add
box

on the "CAT #2 Preset" record
 
A771 Correct an omission where the caption associated with each record in the CAT Preset editor was not
being displayed ("CAT #1 Preset","CAT #2 Preset", "CAT #3 Preset", "Pin Pad", "Online Account
Balance", "Card Reader")
 
ALL Corrected an error notification that occurred when importing files through the ASCII import editor. When
the file being imported has a problem, it always reported the problem with the last field instead of the
field that the error actually occurred on.
 
UP600 Corrected a problem with the Clone function not copying the program data for a store where the model
is a UP600/UP700.
 
ALL Corrected a "No Current Record" runtime error that occurred at startup when all terminals for all stores
were set to Inactive then SKAN_Talk was shut down.
 
A770, A771, UP600 Corrected a problem when displaying keys in the keyboard editor when Combo Meals were assigned to
menu levels 2-6 but not assigned to menu level 1. These keys were displayed as PLUs. This problem
only affected the key display when the combo meal change was made at the register then imported into
SKAN_Talk. The same change made in the keyboard editor would display properly.
 
UP3300, UP3301,
A770, A771
Corrected an error where PLUs greater than 99999 were reset back to 0 when editing combo meals
 
ALL Corrects an logic error running the Flash Z reports. When the store running any of the Flash Z reports
was set as IRC and to poll Consolidated, the commands to get and post the data were duplicated
having the effect of double posting the sales data. This error was introduced on the 6/27/07 release.
 
ALL Corrected an error where the PLU theoretical cost and Misc. Text as well as  Department Royalty fields
were not being properly propagated.
 
ALL Corrected an error that occurred if attempting to enter the Failed Polling Recovery screen when there
were more than 256 failed pollings. This limit has been increased to 2048
 
A750, A770, A771,
UP3300, UP3301,
UP3500
When the polling was set to "By Terminal" and the Flash Z report was run for the Employee Time and
Attendance, the Employee Sales data was polled instead
 
A420, A420U, A530,
A771, UP600
Corrected an error in the CAT Preset editor where the CAT Timeout 3 only allowed a value to be
entered from 0-255 instead of 0-3000
 
ALL Corrected an omission in the Customer Preset editor when a record is deleted. The corresponding
records from the Customer Sales were not deleted which created orphaned records. Over time, this
could cause the Customer Sales file to fill up and receive a "Lacking Memory" error when attempting to
use newly created Customers at the register.
 
UP3300, UP3301
When the Default Key Size option was changed in SKAN_Talk, the program update was not sent
automatically during the Transmit Changes
 
When making changes to the Mode Secret Code, an incorrect Broadcast command being sent. It was
previously set to issue the /4600/ command, but it is actually supposed to send the /0800/ command
 
A420, A420U Corrected an error with the PLU Sales Price level 2 data not getting posted when running the End of
Day Polling. (The data was being posted properly when running the Flash X and Flash Z PLU reports.)

A420 Corrected an error when opening the Stack Report editor on the A420
 
A520 When changing the 987A Service Parameter to set Spanish as the default language used by the

assigning a server number that exceeded 99.
 
UP3300, UP3301 Corrected a problem with the Cover Count Entry and Table Number Entry values being swapped in the
