The command signal for effecting the peak time condition display is generated according to the present time and the peak time zone start time and end time which were inputted or stored. Moreover, the peak time zone start time and end time may be detected according to the number of customers. Moreover, the command signal may be further generated in response to a key switch or a rotary switch. The peak time zone data may be switched between weekdays and holidays. The peak time condition may be judged according to the number of customers. The command signal may be transmitted from the cash register and received by a video controller to effect the peak time zone display operation.
