Verifying That the Parcel is Ready to Measure
Once the box is in place, the ExpressCube countertop unit will resolve the weight and dimensions.
A successful measurement is indicated by the steady illumination of the yellow LED (valid
dimension) and the green LED (valid weight) on the front of the platform. The ExpressCube control
panel will also have valid measurement indicators with the actual measurements displayed.
If the weight has not been resolved, the problem could be caused by:
•
The box weight exceeds specifications. Weight will read ‘
OVER
’
•
The ExpressCube countertop was not in a zero condition prior to the box placement on the
platform.
•
The ExpressCube countertop is undergoing vibrations or movement that prevent weight
resolution.
If the dimensions cannot be resolved,
all
dimensions will read ‘
N / A
’. If a cuboidal package is placed
within the yellow guidelines and there is not a valid dimension obtained, the problem could be
caused by:
•
The box dimension does not fall between the minimum and maximum the specifications.
•
The box is not flush against all three dimensional arrays.
•
There is excessive dirt or an object blocking the measuring arrays.
"
If the ExpressCube
™
countertop is unable to resolve a valid dimension, it will behave as
a weigh scale. In this condition, acquiring a measurement will only record the weight and a
scan code (optional).
"
If the ExpressCube
™
countertop is equipped to dimension only, the unit will not record
a measurement unless a valid dimension is obtained.
The ready to acquire condition (valid measurements) display for both of the ExpressCube
™
control
panels is illustrated below:
