How to Use Rate Chaining

The rate table can implement the rate chaining function. For a selected rate if the weight

exceeds a threshold, the rate shall be chained to another rate.
When the printing with the rate chaining is done, the Machine shall return to the selected

rate.
A rate chaining can require additional rate data such as a Zip Code.

The following example explains the rate chaining functionality:
1.

From the home screen, a rate has been selected.

Enter a weight manually.

The weight entered exceeds a threshold lead to rate chaining.

2.

The ZIP Code screen is displayed.

Using the numeric keys enter the zip code and press

OK

to validate.

The ZIP Code is saved until a new ZIP Code is entered. When

the Machine is restarted, the ZIP Code is erased.
