52 5.3 Franking The Mail - Frama EcoMail Mode D'emploi

Set additional services are displayed in the
large main field. You can also change set-
tings here. If no setting has been selected,
«No Additional Services» is displayed.
Important: If you select another type of
mailing, all other settings revert to the basic
setting (inland / smallest format / no additio-
nal services / lowest weight category). Any
postal sender clichés set are cancelled. If you
select another destination, the mail type set-
ting is retained, but the other settings are re-
set. Changes in format, additional services
and weight do not change previously made
settings for mail type and destination.

mail types with the same delivery destinati-
on within a particular weight category and
the same additional services. These can be
recalled in sequence by pressing a single
key. (For programming details, see section
5.9.22.)
