Display and Keyboard
3.1 Display
The display is an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) capable of displaying various
sizes of characters and graphic images.
As shown in the diagram above, the scale displays the class of mail available,
selected special services, weight and calculated rate. When additional infor-
mation is needed, the scale will prompt for the information in pop-up windows
or display other menu selections.
3.2 Sleep Mode
If the scale is left unattended for five minutes, it will automatically go to sleep
(darken display) to conserve energy. While in the “SLEEP” mode, the scale
retains the last transaction information in memory. When weight is placed on
the platter or a key is pressed, the display returns to normal operating mode.
3.3 Keyboard
The keyboard is composed of numeric keys, operator keys and four soft keys.
The four operator keys are located directly beneath the display. The numeric
keys are grouped on the far right side of the keyboard while the four soft keys
are located directly to the right of the display.
3.3.1
SOFT KEYS
The four keys located to the right of the graphic display are the
soft keys. These keys interact with the graphic display and are
used to make menu selections that guide you through the rate
calculation process. The two arrow keys to the right of the soft
keys allow you to move the soft key selections up and down as
indicated by the arrow in the display.
