Connect+® Series Operator Guide
NOTE: On Connect+® 1000systems, all mail pieces in a job must be identical.
l
The inserter sends start and stop signals to the Connect+® Series system. The Con-
nect+® Series system can send error messages back to the inserter to stop feeding.
l
If the Connect+® Series system is overcome with mail, it can pause the inserter to pre-
vent it from producing any additional mail pieces, process the mail pieces on the feeder,
then signal the inserter to resume once it has caught up.
l
When the mailing system is in maintenance mode, it will pause the inserter, then signal
the inserter to resume once maintenance is complete.
For more information about the DI900™/DI950™ FastPac® inserting system, refer to the
refer to the documentation provided with the inserter.
Running Mail with SendSuite Xpress™ or Ascent™
When a Connect+® Series system is interfaced with SendSuite Xpress™ or Ascent™, the
shipping application sends a shipping job to the mailing system.
NOTE: Accounting must be turned off and user logins must be disabled on your Connect+®
Series system before SendSuite Xpress™ or Ascent™ can successfully send a shipping
job.
The Start and Tape buttons are replaced by a "Printing Remotely Controlled" message while
the shipping application sends the job properties to the system. There are two types of jobs
sent from the shipping system: trip and batch.
l
If a trip job is sent, the Connect+® Series system displays the postage amount and
changes the job to Key in Postage mode. The Start and Tape buttons remain unavail-
able. Running mail is remotely controlled by the shipping application and your postage is
printed on a tape or tapes. Non-postal job properties (graphic ads, text messages, etc.)
cannot be added to a trip job.
l
If a batch job is sent, the Start and Tape buttons become available once the job is
received by the Connect+® Series system. You can add or edit non-postal job properties,
and print to either envelopes or tapes.
Lock Spend
If "lock spend"option is checked in SendSuite Xpress™ or Ascent™, printing (spending) on
the Connect+® Series is locked; this means that the Start and Tape buttons are not available
