7 Loading postage – TELESET
Notes on the TELESET procedure
TELESET is the loading of the desired postage
credit via modem from the TELESET data center.
The modem is built into the Optimail. After entering
your PIN (personal identification number) and the
desired amount, the Optimail establishes a
connection to the TELESET data center for the time
of the actual loading process.
Accounting is as per your contract with the United
States Postal Service.
Permissible amounts
Permissible amounts for calling postage:
From 10 to a maximum $ 5,000 in steps of $ 10.
The Optimail will not accept impermissible amounts/
incorrect inputs. The amount last used then
reappears in the display .
Security features
For reasons of safety, the United States Postal
Service demands that the postage meter connect
with the TELESET data center at regular intervals.
During this contact, the TDC checks the registers
and other parameters.
An internal counter allows your postage meter to
determine when the next contact with the TELESET
data center must be made.
When it is time to contact the TDC, the message
“Call-FPxx” (possible messages are: -FP44, -FP45,
FP46, FP47) will appear in the display. If you do not
respond to this message within a reasonable
amount of time the postage meter will discontinue
operation until communication is made.
All you need to do to establish communication is
conduct a normal TELESET postage loading. If you
do not need postage, you may ask for a reset of zero
dollars. If you have any questions, call service.
