The next field is to select EFT as manual or automatic.
first I will explain the EFT system.
There are 2 EFT links available for these machines, one is provided by
a company called Commidea the other by a company called Checkline.
Both these suppliers provide software that will be installed on a
computer, then as a credit card is swiped through the mag card reader,
the computer will take over the transaction, an authorisation code will
then be provided by the bank and the transaction can be finalised on the
EPoS.

The selection you make is either manual or automatic.
Generally if you select automatic, the software on the computer will 
automatically dial the bank for an authorisation code, where as if manual
is selected you may be required to phone the bank for authorisation.

covered earlier, the selection here is to allow loyalty or disable it.
