5 • Mailing System Setup

Scale/Rates:

Attached Scale

This option appears only if you have an integrated scale or an attached

external scale connected to your mailing system.
Use this option to select how much time your system allows the scale to

settle (Normal or Adjust for Motion).
Select Adjust for motion if your mailing system is in an environment sub-

ject to vibrations, such as near air-conditioning vents or closing doors. If

you select this, the scale will require more time to settle.

NOTE: If this is the first time you are using an attached scale, you may be

prompted to enter a location code. Refer to the documentation that arrived with

the scale, or contact the Pitney Bowes Help Desk. Refer to the Pitney Bowes

Contact Information List

at the front of this guide for the phone number.

(ZIP Code or Zone) whenever you put
