About the NR-510BE

What it is and who it fits

The NR-510BE is the flat-keyboard model in the NR-510E Series. Its 90 keys hold 75 programmable locations, so a preset key can ring each menu item, and the spill-resistant surface is built for a food counter. The sales journal is kept electronically rather than on a second paper roll, and the Ethernet port is there for semi-integrated card payment.

Best fit

  • CRS positions the NR-510BE for food service: cafeterias, quick service, concessions, ice cream and frozen yogurt stands, hamburger, sandwich, pizza, coffee, bakery, delis and bars (manufacturer positioning, LIT-408)
  • Menus that change during the day: modifiers, and a key sheet under the overlay that is easily exchanged
  • Counters that want a preset key for each item rather than a small set of department keys
  • Receipt-only printing, with the journal kept electronically and saved or polled to a PC

Consider a different model when

  • NR-510RBE if staff ring by department or preset-price key and you want large raised keys. It is the same register otherwise.
  • ER-920E if you need a larger keyboard and item file: 150 key locations and up to 22,000 PLUs.

These are workflow differences, not quality rankings.

Key features

  • One thermal receipt printer. 15 lines per second on 58 mm paper, up to 32 characters per line, with drop-and-print loading. Up to a 6-line preamble and 6-line postamble, and an optional graphic logo.
  • Electronic journal. Up to 30,000 lines kept in memory, archived for printing at end of day, and polled and collected by a PC using the included eSpresso utility.
  • Flat, spill-resistant keyboard. 90 keys and 75 programmable locations. Modifiers handle menus that change during the day, and the key sheet under the overlay is easily exchanged.
  • Operator and customer displays. An adjustable 192 x 64 graphic blue backlit LCD names each item as it is entered, and a rear two-line, 16-character backlit turret display shows the customer prices and the total.
  • Scanning. The USB port is documented for a scanner, and not-found PLU registration builds the item file as you scan. Which scanner fits which register
  • Card payments. Semi-integrated credit, debit and gift card processing over the Ethernet port, using Datacap with an appropriate PIN pad and a persistent internet connection. No card information is stored in the register. It is optional: you can buy this register and keep your current processor. How integrated processing works
  • Ports and storage. Three serial ports (two RJ45, one DB9F), one USB port for a scanner, save and load or a PC interface, and an SD slot for saving programs and reports.
  • Documented peripherals. Kitchen printer, slip printer, scale, scanner and pole display, plus PC communications with optional polling software.
  • Everyday capacity. Up to 500 hard or soft guest checks, 2 price levels per PLU, 100 mix and match discounts, 4 tax rates or tables and up to 99 group totals.
  • Security and cash control. Voids, reporting and programming are restricted by the manager's key lock, with enforced closed drawer and an open-drawer alarm.
  • Languages. English, Spanish or French.

Electronic journal. This register can keep journal records electronically inside the machine rather than only on paper. That is an electronic recordkeeping capability, not an extra print station: it does not add a second built-in printer, and it is not an external kitchen or remote impact printer.

Accessories, supplies and support

These are the items we associate with this register in our own data. Add what you need now, or keep the register by itself.

Hardware compatibility

Compatibility review statusVerification required

Documented in:NR-510E Series BrochureNR-500 Operator-Programming ManualNR-500E / NR-510 Help

Verification is still required for the exact interface, connector or cable, available power, firmware and programming before this hardware should be ordered for the register.

A connector that physically fits does not by itself establish compatibility. Interface, cable, protocol, firmware and programming can all matter, so anything not marked as established should be confirmed with us before you order. Ask us to confirm a pairing.

Programming & support

Support and programming are sold as time blocks at $100 per hour, or $50 for a 30-minute block, Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–5:00 PM Eastern. There is no 24/7 line. You do not need to have bought the register from us.

Supplies

This model uses 58 mm (2.25 in) receipt paper. Check the roll diameter your printer accepts as well as the width, since width alone does not guarantee fit.

Taking card payments too? Processing is a separate decision from the register, and you can buy any register, package, support or programming here without changing processors. If you want a second opinion on your current statement, equipment and pricing, we can review it.

Verified accessories

Accessories documented for this register

These are exact products, matched to this exact register. Anything not listed here is not ruled out — it simply has not been verified yet, and we would rather tell you that than sell you a guess.

Documented does not mean plug-and-play: port programming, baud settings and the correct cable still have to be right, and that is what we confirm with you before anything ships.

Before you add accessories Compatibility depends on the exact register model, interface, cable, firmware and programming. We verify the correct configuration before recommending an accessory.

Replacement & upgrade

Coming from an older register?

Replacing Older NR-500 / NR-510 Series Closest current SAM4S fit, based on the documented feature comparison
Older NR-500 / NR-510 Series→NR-510B → NR-510BE · NR-510RB → NR-510RBE

One CRS NR-500 series manual covers the older NR-510 and the current E models, which add an Ethernet port for DC Direct payments. The keyboard and printer configurations match, so this is the closest current fit based on documented features, not a manufacturer replacement statement.

Confirm the exact old model, keyboard style, programming, scanners, scales, printers, cash drawer, payment equipment, reports and data-transfer expectations before ordering. Do not assume existing programming or peripherals transfer directly.
Replacement guidance is advisory, not a confirmed one-to-one mapping.

Before ordering a replacement we confirm:

Existing programming and peripherals do not automatically transfer to a new register. Send us the exact old model and we will check it against your workflow before anything is ordered.

One difference, and it is the keyboard. Printer, displays, capacity, ports and payment route are identical, so the rows they share are collapsed into one. Prices are current.

Still comparing registers?

Need payment processing with this register?

We can review your current processing statement and help match the payment setup to the register. If your existing processor already works well, you can keep it.

Processor change is not required. Buy or replace the register first; review processing only if it is useful to the business. For multiple registers or a larger rollout, request volume pricing based on the actual project.
