Frequently Asked Questions - XE-A137 SHARP

How many departments and PLUs can be programmed on the SHARP XE-A137?
The SHARP XE-A137 cash register manages 8 departments, each with a 12-character text, and up to 200 PLUs (Price Look-Up) also with a 12-character description. This capacity is suitable for small to medium-sized businesses with a limited range of items.
How to replace the thermal paper roll?
The SHARP XE-A137 is equipped with a 1 station top-loading thermal printer (drop-in). Open the printer cover, remove the empty spindle, insert a new roll of 57.5 mm width leaving a few centimeters of paper protruding, then close the cover. Do not use carbon or chemical paper.
How to perform a Z report (daily closing)?
Turn the cash register key to the Z position, then press the TOTAL key. The Z report prints sales totals by department, by PLU, and by hour, then resets the counters to zero. Keep this printout: it is your daily sales receipt proof.
How to program the VAT rates?
The cash register accepts 4 programmable VAT rates. To enter them, switch the key to P (Programming) mode and follow the instructions in the user manual section on VAT. Each rate can be freely assigned to one or more departments according to your business.
What is the purpose of the SD card and what format to use?
The XE-A137's SD card slot accepts SDHC cards from 4 GB to 32 GB. It allows you to save the programming (PLUs, departments, VAT rates) and transfer the electronic journal to a PC for archiving or analysis. It's also the fastest way to reprogram a new cash register in case of replacement.
What to do if the display shows an error or if the cash register is blocked?
Press the C (Clear) key to cancel the current entry. If the cash register remains blocked, turn the key to the REG position and press C again. In case of a persistent error, the HELP key allows you to print basic configuration and troubleshooting instructions directly without consulting the manual.
What batteries should be installed and why?
The cash register uses 3 AA batteries (LR6) exclusively for data backup in case of a power outage. These batteries do not power the cash register (which is always plugged into the mains). Replace them as soon as the low battery indicator appears to avoid losing programming and counters.
How to access the electronic journal?
The electronic journal records all transactions without consuming paper. To view it, switch to X or Z mode and print the journal report, or export it via the SD card to open on a PC. This feature is particularly useful for finding a specific transaction or verifying a cash discrepancy.
How to lock the cash drawer?
The XE-A137 cash drawer is equipped with a key lock. Once closed, turn the provided key to lock it. A quick deposit slot on top of the drawer allows you to slip large bills from the outside without opening the drawer, for added security during service.
Can the SHARP XE-A137 be connected to a computer or management software?
The XE-A137 does not have a USB port or direct PC connection. Data transfer is done only via the SD card: files are exported from the cash register to the card, then read on a PC. There is no native compatibility with third-party cash register software.
What are the dimensions and weight of the cash register?
The SHARP XE-A137 measures 335 x 360 x 190 mm (width x depth x height) with a weight of 5.0 kg. Its compact profile makes it suitable for small counter spaces. It is available in two colors: black (XE-A137-BK) and white (XE-A137-WH).
What types of reports can the cash register generate?
The XE-A137 produces daily reports (X report and Z report) and periodic reports. Data is broken down by department, by PLU, and by time slot, allowing you to track activity peaks. These reports are printed on receipt or exported via SD card.

SHARP XE-A137 - Initializing the Cash Register - 1

L 0.00

NOTE If this does not happen when inserting the AC adapter, then the initialization has not been done successful. (This will occur when the voltage is high because you operated the cash register before starting initialization.) Wait at least one minute after pulling out the AC adapter and reinsert the AC adapter into the AC outlet only after this waiting time has passed.

2 Installing Batteries

Three new alkaline batteries LR6 ("AA" size) must be installed in the cash register to prevent the data and user-programmed settings from being erased from the memory, when the AC adapter plug is accidentally disconnected or in case of power failure. Once installed, the batteries will last approximately one year before needing replacement. At this time, the "L" symbol will appear on the display to indicate the batteries are low and must be replaced within two days. If the no battery symbol "L" appears, you must install the batteries at once. Install three new alkaline batteries LR6 ("AA" size) according to the procedure shown below with the AC adapter plug connected and set the mode switch to the REG position:

  1. Push the printer cover forward and detach it. Be careful with the paper cutter, so as not to cut yourself.
  2. Open the battery compartment cover next to the paper roll cradle.

  3. Install three new alkaline batteries LR6 ("AA" size) as per the diagram. When the batteries are properly installed "L" on the display will disappear.

  4. Close the battery compartment cover.

NOTE • Be sure to observe precautions shown on page 1 when handling batteries.

- If you press a key by mistake, an error symbol “PPPPPPPPPP” may be displayed. Press the CL key to clear the symbol after installing paper rolls.

5 Tax Programming

If you program the VAT/tax, the cash register can calculate the sales tax. In the VAT system, the tax is included in the price you enter in the register, and the tax amount is calculated when tendered according to the VAT rate programmed. In the tax system, the tax is calculated when tendered according to the tax rate programmed, and added to the price. The cash register can provide totally 6 kinds of VAT/tax systems (automatic VAT1-4, automatic tax 1-4, manual VAT 1-4, manual VAT 1, manual tax 1-4, and automatic VAT1 and automatic tax 2-4 systems) and 4 kinds of rates. By default, the cash register is pre-programmed as automatic VAT1-4 system.

When you program tax rate(s) and taxable status for each department (by default, VAT1/tax1 is set to taxable.), tax will be automatically added to sales of items assigned to the department according to the programmed tax status for the department and the corresponding tax rate(s).

For details of the tax systems, refer to “Computation of VAT (Value Added Tax)/tax” section in “FULL DETAILED INSTRUCTION MANUAL”. To change the tax system, please refer to “Other programming” of “Various Function Selection Programming 1” section in “FULL DETAILED INSTRUCTION MANUAL” (Job code 69).

Tax rate programming

The percent rate specified here is used for tax calculation on taxable subtotals.

1 In Case of Power Failure

When power is lost, the machine retains its memory contents and all information on sales entries. (Note: Three alkaline batteries must be installed.)

  • When power failure is encountered in register idle state or during an entry, the machine returns to normal operation after power recovery.
  • When power failure is encountered during a printing cycle, the register prints “==========” and then carries out the correct printing procedure after power recovery. (See the sample print.)

SHARP XE-A137 - In Case of Power Failure - 1

2 In Case of Printer Error

If the printer runs out of paper, the printer will stall, and “” will appear on the display. Key entries will not be accepted. Refer to section 5 in this chapter, install a new roll, then press the CL key. The printer will print the power failure symbol and resume printing.

3 Cautions in Handling the Printer and Recording Paper

■ Cautions in handling the printer

  • Avoid dusty and humid environments, direct sunlight and iron powder. (A permanent magnet and electromagnet are used in this machine.)
  • Never pull the paper when the print roller arm is locked. First lift up the arm, and then remove the paper.
  • Never touch the surface of the printer head and print roller.

■ Cautions in handling the recording paper (thermal paper)

  • Use only the paper specified by SHARP.
  • Do not unpack the thermal paper until you are ready to use it.
  • Avoid heat. The paper will color at around 70^ .
  • Avoid dusty and humid storage places. Avoid direct sunlight.
  • The printed text on the paper can discolor under conditions of high humidity and temperature, exposure to the direct sunlight, contact with glue, thinner or a freshly copied blueprint, and heat caused by friction from scratching or other such means.
  • Be very careful when handling the thermal paper. If you want to keep a permanent record, copy the printed text with a photocopier.

4 Replacing the Batteries

This cash register displays a low battery symbol (L) when the batteries are low, and displays a no battery symbol (L) when batteries are extremely low or batteries are not installed.

When the low battery symbol is displayed, replace the batteries with new ones as soon as possible. The existing batteries will be dead in about two days.

When the no battery symbol is displayed, replace the batteries immediately. Otherwise, if the AC adapter plug is disconnected or a power failure occurs, all the programmed settings will be reset to the default settings and any data stored in memory will be cleared.

Caution: While the no battery symbol is being displayed, do not turn the mode switch to any positions. Follow the battery replacement procedure below without changing the mode switch position. Never pull out the AC adapter from the AC outlet, all the programmed settings will be reset to the default settings and any data stored in memory will be cleared.

NOTE Be sure to observe precautions shown on page 1 when handling batteries.

To replace the batteries:

SHARP XE-A137 - To replace the batteries: - 1

natural_image Pure electrical circuit lines without any symbols
  1. Make sure that the cash register is plugged in.
  2. Remove the printer cover.
  3. Open the battery compartment cover next to the paper roll cradle and remove the old batteries.
  4. Install three new alkaline batteries LR6 ("AA" size) in the battery compartment. Be sure the positive and negative poles of each battery are facing in the proper direction. When they are installed correctly, the "L" or "L" symbol will disappear.
  5. Close the battery compartment cover.
  6. Replace the printer cover.

5 Replacing the Paper Roll

Be sure to use paper rolls specified by SHARP.

The use of any other paper rolls other than those specified could cause paper jamming, resulting in register malfunction.
