6Setting Up the Scale and Selecting Rates

If you have a scale on your DM800™ Series Digital Mailing System, you can use this section to set up how your scale works with your system.

For example, the Attached Scale op- tion allows you to set your scale to ac- commodate 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 de- pends on the model number of your mailing system. All of the options are listed in the menu on the right.
