5 • Adding Postage/Connecting to Data Centre

System Update

If there has been a feature enhancement or other non-essential
update to the software that runs your machine, you will be notified
that a system update is available.

Advertisements

If there are new advertisements that you ordered available, you will
be notified that you can perform a download to obtain these.

Software Update (mandatory)

If there has been an important update to the software that runs your
machine, you will be notified that a required update is necessary.

Postal Code Update (mandatory)

If the Town Circle on record at the Data Centre does not match the
Town Circle of your mailing system, the correct information will be
downloaded into your machine. (When a machine is moved to a new
location, the Data Centre enters the new Town Circle into the record.
Your system is updated when a connection is made to the Data
Centre.)

Postal Inspection (mandatory)

Each time you add postage to the machine, the Data Centre
automatically performs a postal inspection as required by the
Postal Authority. If the interval between inspections is too long,
your machine's display prompts "Inspection Due". Eventually, if an
inspection is still not carried out, the display prompts "Inspection
Required." You won't be able to use your mailing system until your
system is inspected.
See Section 8 "Troubleshooting" for specific details of the time
periods before these prompts appear.
To satisfy the inspection requirement, simply:
• Connect to the Data Centre as described in the Checking your
Postage by Phone account balance.
• Add postage (see
NOTE: You can't use this option for Inspection Required.
When an inspection is performed, an "Inspection Complete" screen
displays upon completion. The display also notifies you of the date
the next inspection is due.
