7Setting Up the Scale and Selecting Rates

If you have a scale on your mailing system, you can use this section to set up how your scale works with your system.

For example, the Attached Scale option allows you to set your scale to accommo- date for environments subject to vibrations.

The Class if new Piece, Dest. if new 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.

The list of options that displays depends on the model number of your mailing system. All of the options are listed in the menu on the right.
