Selecting a
Class,
Carrier, or
Special
Service
Each carrier has its own set of classes and each class has its own set of
special services. When you select a class or carrier, only those options
available for that selection display in the main screen.
NOTE: When selecting a class/carrier:
If your system has been set up to retain the class on each piece of mail
weighed then the class that appears in the main screen will be the one you
selected last.
If you turn off and then turn on the power to your system, or if your system
has been set up to clear the class on each piece of mail weighed, it will
clear the class. In this case, you need to select a new class.
If you place a piece of mail on the scale, or enter a weight manually, the
system automatically prompts you to select a new class if the new weight
requires a different class.

2. Select the class and press Enter.

accept. For more information, refer to Selecting a Country in this sec-
tion.

played.

confirm the class.
