*57 For LIQUID COLOR applications only. This function usually operates in conjunction with an additional two air solenoids mounted on the blender frame.
Press (*,5,7) to allow automatic switch over to a full drum when the current drum of color runs out. When function is off, display will say (COL= 4 ). Press * to toggle to (COL= 4+7). When display says (COL= 4 ), the color setting aplies to output 4 only, the standard COLOR output. When display says (COL= 4+7), this means that output 4 is the starting output, and when no weight is detected after a dispense, the output switches to output 7. The "7" is determined by the parameter (LIQ 00007). You can change the secondary output by changing the parameter.
If output 7 is also empty, the output switches back to 4. See parameter (LIQ 00007) for more information.
*66 Press (*,6,6) to enter an identification number for this particular weigh scale blender. This I.D. number will appear on all printed reports. If you have more than one unit, this helps to identify reports. If you are using a computer to automatically gather data, then each controller must have a unique address. Valid numbers are 000 to 255. They need not be consecutive. When units are connected to a computer, do not use the number 000 for identification.
*69 Press (*,6,9) to set flag to treat the "REGRIND" dispense as a SECOND NATURAL material.
With the flag OFF, Natural is calculated to fill the space remaining in the weigh bin after a Regrind dispense has occurred. In other words, when a reduced amount of Regrind is dispensed, additional Natural is dispensed. Color and Additive dispenses are calculated as a percentage of this Natural dispense ONLY.
With the flag ON, Natural is calculated to maintain the proper RATIO between the two components (Natural and Regrind). Color and Additive dispenses are calculated to add to BOTH components at the requested ratios.
"Regrind", in the normal sense, is not added. Instead, this component is treated as another "Natural" material. If the ratio of the two naturals is not 50/50, place the HIGHER volume component in the "regrind" side. Set the "regrind" thumbwheel for the percentage that the "regrind" side is of the combined mix. For example; Naturals A and B are to be used at a 20/80 mix ratio; B is the greater at 80 percent. Put component B in the regrind side and set the regrind switch for 80 percent.
NOTE: The Regrind alarm parameter (RAL) is automatically set to a number that forces retries and stops the system when this component runs out. See PARAMETERS,
Use the * key to toggle flag ON or OFF.
Press EXIT when desired flag status is displayed.
