About PC Meter Connect™ Desktop Application
PC Meter Connect desktop application is a high-speed connectivity
option that eliminates the need for an analog line. Similar to Constant
Connection (LAN Connection), PC Meter Connect
™
enables your
system to connect to the Internet but it does so via a Windows PC
having an Internet connection.
You simply download the PC Meter Connect™ software from the
Pitney Bowes website (see page v), install it onto a PC with an inter-
net connection (broadband, DSL, network, etc.), and connect a USB
cable between your machine and the PC.
There are two versions of PC Meter Connect
™
documented in this
guide, Basic for DM100i/DM200L, and Enhanced for DM125/DM225.
DM100i/DM200L Basic Version
This version allows your machine to communicate to the Data Center
for postage downloads and rate/system updates via a PC with inter-
net access. All functions are performed at the machine.
DM125/DM225 Enhanced Version
Besides the Basic features, the Enhanced version lets you, from your PC:
• walk through the entire installation process of your machine (if that
is the method you choose when first installing)
• see status messages (such as "low funds") from the machine
• see or print your postage refill history
• set machine settings, such as date and time, printing options,
presets, etc.
• run accounting reports
The Enhanced version also includes links from your PC to:
• demos to walk you through common procedures
• online support for your system
• the Pitney Bowes Online Store, which provides an easy and con-
venient way to order ink cartridges, E-Z Seal
®
, envelopes, and
other supplies for your system.
