ABSTRACT:
In a method for statistics mode reloading and for the statistical acquisition in the storage of a dataset in an electronic postage meter machine, the statistics mode of the electronic postage meter machine created for the acquisition of pre-compressed data according to statistics classes (postal classes) is interchangeably installed. A formation of freely selectable, new statistics instruction data for a future statistics mode ensues in the data center for the purpose of a transmission in the form of an instruction dataset. The installation of the statistics mode ensues during a communication of the postage meter machine with the data center. A microprocessor of the postage meter machine is programmed to change the statistics mode by modem or with another suitable communication means at least periodically or when the mail carrier is changed, or within the framework of a reloading of the postage meter machine. Preceding transactions are provided in the communication mode in order to transmit data of the old statistics mode to the data center. A deletion of the old statistics data ensues after a successfully ended, error-free transaction for interrogating the old statistics data and after a transmission of valid, new statistics instruction data during a following transaction. The acquisition now ensues according to new statistics classes, whereby all check steps for membership in respective statistics classes are executed.
