PACER PX-I and PX-I
THEATRE ADMISSIONS SYSTEM
PACER'S PX-I (and PX-II) is a complete standalone
system designed specifically for theatres with up to
four screens (eight screens for PX-II). Designed with the
smaller theatre in mind, PX-I (and PX-II) provides point-ofsale
control over admissions, financial information, and
other operational activities. The keyboard, central processing
unit, and high speed ticket printer all reside within one
compact module. The report/audit printer is a remote unit.
The entire PX-I (and PX-II) fits easily into a 5-bank
mechanical ticket issuer cutout, allowing quick and inexpensive
box office retrofits. PX-I (and PX-II) features are:
KEYBOARD. Multicolored sealed membrane, like PACER's
Concession Terminal, is used to sell tickets, take reports,
display information, and operate the system.
TICKET PRINTER. The high speed ticket printer prints
tickets from blank stock at the point of sale.
REPORT PRINTER. The report/audit printer produces
8'/2xll hard copy of all box office activity.
ADVANCED TICKET SALES. PX-I (and PX-II) allows the
operator to pre-sell tickets for any showing during the
course of the same day.
HOUSE COUNT. The number of seats remaining per
showing is available at all times.
GENERAL LEDGER ENTRIES. The PX-I (and PX-II) has
general ledger categories to allow input of all miscellaneous
box office items.
AMOUNT TENDERED. The PX-I (and PX-II) computes
change due the customer.
TELEPROCESSING. PX-I (and PX-II) can transmit, via
telephone lines, daily theatre information to the corporate
office computer.
EXPANDABILITY. Up to two PX-I (or PX-II) units can be
installed in a theatre through the interunit communications
option. The PX-I (and PX-II) can be used in conjunction
with the PACER Manager's Office Station (MOS), allowing
the theatre the ability to utilize PACER Concession Terminals
and payroll software. The addition of an MOS does
not increase from four the number of features which can be
sold at one time from the PX-I, but it does allow the theatre
to store and track up to four additional features for doublebooking
purposes. (The PX-II allows from 8-30 features.)
OPTIONS. Optional PX-I (and PX-II) items are the patron
display, modem for teleprocessing, interunit communications
package for linking two standalone PX-I (or PX-II)
units, and the MOS communications package for hnking the
PX-I (or PX-II) to an MOS.
SERVICE. PACER's service is through modular exchange of
components supported by our 24-hour, 7-day-a-week
national service organization.
