4. Operation
4.1. Switching on and off
Information
You must always press the Log Off button to shut down the franking system before you
switch your Matrix franking system off. This procedure ensures that the print head is properly
sealed and cannot dry out.
You can restart your system by pressing Restart System
without having to operate the mains switch.
Use the Power Off button to switch the system off (soft
OFF). Touch the screen to wake the franking system up
again.
The screen is switched off after a specified delay in the
Auto Log Off mode (see page 39). This reduces power
consumption to a minimum (standby). Touch the screen
to wake the franking system up again.
4.2. Cost centres
4.2.1. General comments on cost centres
Your Frama Matrix franking system is equipped with various counters which allow you to monitor
postage consumption and the number of mail items franked.
Cost centres are provided to allow you to specifically break down postage consumption. These
counters are known as R-Piece and R-Value. The R stands for “Resettable”.
Each cost centre can be given its own name. You have 16 characters at your disposal. The cost
centre active at any time is shown in the top section of the display in the CC key. You may change to
another cost centre by pressing this key.
