How do I prepare my XEA147 for set-up?
Take the XEA147 out of its box, remove the packing materials. Place the XEA147 on a flat stable surface,
close to a power outlet. Also insure it will not be exposed to direct sunlight, and is away from water (taps,
sinks, etc).
How do I clear the XEA147 to ready it for programming?
It is very important that you “initialise” the XEA147 correctly once you have removed it from the box, and
are ready to start programming. If you do not “initialise” the XEA147, it might not work correctly.
1. Insert the Mode key into the mode switch and turn it to the REG position.
2. Plug the AC adapter connector into the AC adapter jack, then plug the AC adapter into the wall
outlet.
This must be done without the batteries installed. If you have installed batteries; be sure to remove
them before you start this procedure.
After a few seconds, the register display should look as indicated below.
The register is initialised.
Note: This register does not have a sound function. No beep sound will be made when pressing
keys, this is normal, and is not a malfunction.
If the above steps do not happen as described, the initialisation has not been successful. If this is the
case: disconnect the register from the AC outlet, wait at least one minute, and then try again.
If there were any data from a previous programming attempt, they would have been cleared

How to install the batteries, and why should I do so?
The XEA147 uses 3 x AA size batteries to hold its preset, and sales data in memory when it is switched
off. If you do not install 3 x AA size batteries; the XEA147 will be cleared of all preset, and sales data
when it is turned off.
1. Lift the printer cover up and forward, and detach it. Be careful of the paper cutter to avoid cutting
yourself.
2. Open the battery compartment cover next to the paper roll cradle.
3. Install 3 alkaline AA size batteries.
4. When the batteries are properly installed the “ ” message on the display will disappear.
Note: If you press a key by mistake, an error symbol “PPPPPPPPPP” might be displayed. Press
CL to clear the symbol after installing the paper rolls. (see next question).
5. Close the battery compartment cover.
A set of new alkaline batteries once installed will keep the memory for up to one year without power.
Please see the question on how to replace the batteries for details on when and how to replace the batteries.
If the unit is not used for some months, you might not get any warning when you turn it on that the
batteries have failed. In this instance, the XEA147 will initialise itself.
