Timeouts

This section describes how to set various

system timeouts for your mailing system.
1. To access the system timeouts, press

the Menu key on the control center, and

select Set Up.

2. Select Basic Settings and then Time-

outs

to get all of the timeout options.

The timeout options are listed on the right.

All of these options are described in the fol-

lowing sections.

Standby Mode: Least Power Usage

In order to reach the lowest level of power consumption, the mailing system

can be manually switched "Off" while still plugged into the wall. Toggle the

"On/Off" switch to "Off" when not using the mailing system for an extended

period of time. When switched back "On" expect some delay for a normal

reboot to assure that the entire system is ready to go.

Timeouts:
Display Sleep

This option allows you to specify how long the system can remain inactive

before the display turns off. You can set the timeout for 1 - 30 minutes, in 1

minute increments. The default timeout is 5 minutes.
The display turns on again when you press any key on the control center or

if you place mail in the feeder or on the scale (either integrated or attached

external scale).
1. Press the Menu key and select Set Up.

2. Select Basic Settings and then Timeouts.

3. Select Display Sleep.

4. Enter the number of minutes (1-30) using the numeric keyboard.

5. Press the Enter key.

Timeouts: Sleep

The "sleep" mode will save money, and help protect the environment. Use

this option to specify how long the system remains inactive before it goes

into "sleep".
You can set this timeout for 40 - 240 minutes, in 1 minute increments. The

default timeout is 10 minutes.
The system goes into display sleep before it goes into system sleep. The

system wakes up again when you press any key on the control center or if

you place mail in the feeder or on the scale (either integrated or attached

external scale).
1. Press the Menu key and select Set Up.

2. Select Basic Settings and then Timeouts.

pad.
