Advanced Features on the Meter
From the Barcode Scanner screen, the following selections
appear.
Default: Use the soft key next to this selection to toggle
between "E-Service" or "ZIP". This determines how
the scanner interprets the data being scanned– as either an
E-service code or a ZIP code – when entering USPS
Confirmation services records into your mailing machine.
Auto Enter: Use the soft key next to this selection to toggle
between "OFF" or "ON". This determines if the system
automatically advances to the next screen after scanning a
post code or barcode label, without having to press the
softkey to continue to the next screen. If the setting is off, you
have to manually press the softkey to continue to the next
screen.
When the scanner is seated in the Intellistand’s “cup”, the
scanner is in constant-on, hands-free mode. When you
remove the scanner from the Intellistand, it operates in its
normal hand-held mode. When the scanner is not in use, it is
advised that you do not place the scanner in the Intellistand
to avoid the scanner being in constant-on mode.
Intellistand operation:
1. Insert scanner in stand.
2. Present barcode and ensure the scan line crosses every
bar and space of the barcode.
3. Upon successful decode, the scanner beeps and the LED
turns green.
