PostBase One Franking System
34
4.1 Postage / Royal Mail product
PostBase One sets the postage, i.e. the price for the postal product using the chosen
mailing data (destination, type, mail piece dimensions, and additional services if
applicable), in conjunction with the displayed weight.
Step by step, you simply select the mailing data in the Product Calculation menu.
Depending on the system configuration, weighing is available via the static scale and/
or the dynamic scale.
The different ways to set the product are described below:
– The easiest way to set the product is via shortcut
. Refer to chapter 4.1.1.
– When using the static scale
, you simply select the mailing data from the Product
Calculation menu, then place the mail piece on the weighing platform. Refer to
chapter 4.1.2.1.
– For information on how to use the differential weighing function of the static scale
(optional weighing mode for systems without dynamic scale), please read chapter 4.1.2.2.
– When using PostBase One with the dynamic scale, the weight and size – depend-
ing on the settings in the Product Calculation menu – are determined while trans-
porting the mail piece through the scale. The results are transmitted to the franking
machine. Refer to chapter 4.1.2.3.
– Should no scale be available on your franking system, enter the weight manually.
Refer to chapter 4.1.3.
Note
: The examples in this manual show actual postal products. In case the Royal
Mail changes their products / services on short notice, corresponding software
updates to the rate table will be made available to the franking system in time. How-
ever, this does not apply to the documentation delivered with you franking system.
