4.5. Working with scales
In connection with scales, a whole range of possibilities is open to you for determining the accurate
weight of a mail item.
4.5.1. Checking weight of mail item when franking
Information about the weight is displayed continuously in the top section of
the franking mask (in this case 118g). In view of this, you can have the weight
of a mail item conveniently displayed to you without your having to interrupt
the franking process.
Displaying the weight has no effect on the postal rate calculation.
4.5.2. Fetching mail item weight for postal rate calculation
In the detailed overview or the postal rate calculation, press the “Weight” key
and, at any time, by also pressing the “Scale 118g” key, you can fetch the
displayed weight for calculation of the postal rate.
4.5.3. Weighing a stack of mail items (Option)
The so-called stack weighing mode is a special feature. You can frank a day’s
mail very efficiently in this mode.
Put a stack of mail items onto the scales (we recommend that they are pre-
sorted according to format). The total weight of the stack will be shown in the
top section of the display. Select a OneTouch key whose content is nearest to
the mail items in the stack. The letter format however will be upgraded auto-
matically if required.
Take a letter from the stack. The display changes to the multiple weighing
mode. The key “Weight” fades out. The postage is calculated on the basis of
the weight of the letter removed from the stack. Frank the letter.
Take the next letter from the stack. The weight of
the letter is displayed and the postage calculated
accordingly, etc. When you take the last letter (mail
item) from the stack, the multiple weighing mode
will quit itself after 3 seconds.
You also have access to the type of mailing, format,
destination and letter extra services when you are
in the stack weighing mode.
