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.

tion allows you to set your scale to ac-
commodate for environments subject
to vibrations.

Piece and Dest. if new Class options
allow you to specify if you want to
clear or retain the class or destination
(ZIP Code or Zone) whenever you put
a new piece of mail on the scale.
