6Postage Pass - Automated Postage Refill

With this feature, you determine the amount of postage you want trans- ferred to your meter during each refill and you choose the dollar amount at which you want a refill to occur. When the postage balance in the meter drops to the amount you’ve set as the low funds value, the meter automati- cally downloads the amount you preset. Your meter is always ready for use.

IMPORTANT: This feature requires a constant connection via one of three methods:

direct analog phone line,

wireless connection using an analog device (see below), or

LAN connection using an approved Ethernet device.

When this feature is enabled, your system will automatically initiate contact with Pitney Bowes to refill your meter according to the values you establish in the system. Your mailing system will only initiate a refill when the system powers down (Sleep Mode), wakes up (if it was turned off), or if your post- age meter runs low on funds. Your system will not initiate a refill during a transaction, or in-between transactions. This ensures that your normal operations will not be interrupted.

When your system automatically connects, it will also check to see if any other tasks are necessary during the same connection. This includes uploads of tracking records, electronic postal inspection, or other functions performed during the refill. If an update is required, you will be prompted to do so at that time.
