Well, I don't mind putting in the leg-work on this project because this is a training project where I'm trying to develop the best technique or set of techniques for programming the 2700. I had thought of attaching permanent buttons to the shell screen, as you suggested, for the most popular...

I have HMS 5.03.

Thanks for the response TobeThor. The arrange by row option did the trick for the button arrangement. It's good to have confirmation that there are no SLU priorities. I'll just have to go the sequential route, plan the location of item blocks in the table carefully and populate the blocks...

Hi. I was wondering if it was possible to do the following on a Micros 2700: Say you have a Bloody Mary key. When you press it, you can select a vodka, either via a condiment-style screen or an NLU style pop-up window. The Bloody Mary key doesn't have a price, or has a price of 0. When you...

I read that you can assign SLU priorities on the 3700. For instance, say you have a food prep screen with a bunch of condiments/modifiers listed alphabetically, all with the same SLU. Now let's say that out of those condiments, you want all the cheeses listed together. In the 3700 you could...

I've learned that function codes 0300 to 03FF provide you with tender/media direct keys. It seems to me that you would use these codes in conjunction with the Tender table (2-1-2-2-5) to define keys to pay with cash, credit cards, gift certs, etc. But it also looks like you can define keys to...

Thanks TobeThor. Your post was invaluable in helping me to design a new shell screen.

Sorry, I'm new to forums. I don't know the ins and outs :) I think I just starred you.

I have a basic understanding of SLU's. I get that there are up to 32 SLU's with hex codes 0x0130 through 0x014F. You can then assign an SLU to a menu item from 1 to 32. Now you can define a button with FNC code 0x0130 which corresponds to SLU 1, for instance, and when you press that button, it...

Thanks for the confirmation TobeThor. I figured that's what it was when I opened up the unit and saw the keyboard and touchscreen connected to it.

I have a Micros 2700 half keyboard system unit. It has a TIB in slot B and a CIB in slot A. When I go into system diagnostics mode, the unit reports that only the TIB is installed. However, if I swap the boards and put the CIB in slot B and the TIB in slot A, both boards show up as installed...

Thanks TobeThor. I found the website and the codes:)

Okay, I've performed some diagnostic steps. I'm pretty sure that I'm using a straigh-through cable because when I look at both ends, the wire colors are in the same order. Also, I can use this same cable to connect system units via their ISN comm ports. I believe that the IDN port on the...

TobeThor, I have verified that the printer is working by performing the self test and the test with dip switch 7 on. However, I'm not sure which is the IDN port on the mobo. There are six ports in all that the patch cable fits into. 3 are on the mobo and 3 are on the board attached to the...

The cable has six pins. It's not a phone cable. I don't know if it's straight through or not, but this cable was previously used to successfully connect two system units together.
