Overview 4.1
The Postal Security Device (PSD) — Postage Meter
The Meter, located in the base, handles the credit (or money) in your Mailing System.
The Meter performs all necessary operations to comply with the postal standards. To
do so, regular connections to the Postal Services are necessary.
Check that your Mailing System is connected to a telephone line
or network (see Connections on page 22) and that the connection
is properly configured (see Connection Settings on page 158).
Managing Credit
As a user, you can carry out the following operations dealing with credit in your Mailing
System:
• Check the available credit in the Meter.
• Add credit to the Meter.
• Display the date of next call.
The crediting operations trigger a connection of the Mailing System to Postal Services
through the telephone line or internet connection.
Tracking Credit
You can generate reports on the use of your postage credit as all Mailing operations
involving your postage are recorded by the Mailing System.
To generate reports, see
Reports on page 95.
