Symptom
Solution
Improper phone line 
or phone line not 
connected to meter
• Make sure you've connected your meter to a dedi-
cated an a log phone line (the same type you con-
nect your home phone to). If you are using a DSL 
line, you should use a DSL filter obtained from 
your DSL provider.
• Make sure the phone line con nec tors are firmly 
seated in their re cep ta cles.
• Try using the PC Meter Connect
 method to com-
municate with the Data Center if an internet PC 
is available (see Chapter 6, Adding Postage/Con-
necting to the Data Center
).
Incorrect setup of 
system options
Go to the Chapter 7, System Options, and check 
the following:
• Does your phone system require you to dial a 
pre fix number to get an out side phone line? Make 
sure to include this in the setup if needed.
• Is the dial method correct? You have to tell the 
machine if your phone uses a pulse or tone for 
di al ing.
