The following manual functions are available in the MANUAL mode.
SETTING: Press once followed by one of 3 keys: REG, COL, or ADD. The
(SET) current thumbwheel setting is displayed. If, while in the program mode, the keypad was used to enter this setting then it will not match the thumbwheel setting.
EXIT will exit the sequence.
OPERATE: | Press once | followed by one of 8 | keys: REG, NAT, COL, ADD, | |
(OPER) | DUP, ALM, MIX, or HOLD. The selected output operates until | |||
| the key is | pressed again or another output is selected. | ||
| Only 1 output will be active at | a time. | ||
| EXIT will exit the sequence and | close all outputs. | ||
TIMED: | Press | once | followed by one of 4 | keys: REG, NAT, COL, or |
(TIME) | ADD. | A time in interrupts is requested; (TIME | ||
| digits must be entered specifying a dispense time up to 999 | |||
| interrupts | (about 4 seconds max.). CE will cancel entry | ||
| before last digit is entered. Following a full 3 digit time | |||
| entry, the | specified output is activated for the time | ||
| requested. After the dispense is weighed, the dump valve | |||
| automatically operates to empty | the weigh bin. If a printer | ||
| is on line | and the Print flag is ON, then output information |
will be printed. EXIT will exit the sequence.
CALIBRATE: (RATE) Press once and then press one of 4 keys: REG, NAT,
(CAL) COL, or ADD. A dispense will occur for 2 seconds. If the amount dispensed is less then 50 grams, a second dispense will occur for 20 seconds. Using the resulting weight and time, the processor calculates a proper beginning point dump rate for the start of production blending. After each dispense is weighed, the weigh bin dump valve automatically operates to empty the weigh bin. If a printer is on line and the Print flag is ON (see KEYPAD *54), then output information will be printed. EXIT will exit the sequence.
If the display says (DO AGAIN), press any key to cause the process to repeat itself. If the display then says
( NO GOOD), the weight dispensed was below 5 grams, not enough for a valid calibration.
During initial operation, after each power up, the blender calibrates itself completely automatically, regardless of how far off the initial flow rate may be. This may take several cycles. During normal operation, calibration correction occurs continuously.
Since this unit adjusts flow rates automatically, manual Rate Calibration is not necessary for proper operation.
ZERO WT: | THIS HAS BEEN | DONE AT THE FACTORY. IT SHOULD NOT BE | |||
(ZERO) | NECESSARY | FOR | YOU TO DO | THIS AGAIN. |
|
| Press the | ZERO key once | to set the displayed gram | weight of | |
| the empty | bin | to zero. BE SURE the load cells are | plugged | |
| into the controller. Be sure the bin is properly | in place | |||
| and EMPTY | when this key | is pressed. |
