mix cycle after each dump of the weigh hopper.

To view and change the value of the re-mix timer, refer to the “Mixer and Dump Setup” menu. All current values for Mixing and Remixing Times will be shown on this screen. The re-mix timer default value is factory preset at zero.

5-8-5 Mixer Options

Press the “Timed/Continuous Mixing” key (In the top right hand corner) when in “Mixer and Dump Setup” screen to set the following options:

Timed Mixing Option This mode of operation turns the mixer on only during dumping and during the re-mix time set into the control to jog the mixer during high level mixer operation.

Continuous Mixing Option This mode of operation turns the mixer on after initial startup and will continue to run continuously, unless the remix time is set to jog the mixer during high level mixer operation. This option is used for sticky materials that tend to bridge and block off the mixer discharge to the processing machine.

5-8-6 Weigh Hopper Dump Time

The weigh hopper dump time is the amount of time the weigh hopper’s dump valve remains open to allow weighed material to exit the hopper and enter the mixer.

To view and change the current weigh hopper dump time settings, enter the Setup menu and select the “Mixer and Dump Setup” screen. Press the field next to “Dump Time” to set the operation of the Dump Valve.

The dump timer on the dump valve has a default time of eight (8) seconds. This time can be adjusted to optimize the blender cycle time.

The timer should be set to close the dump valve shortly after the material has totally dumped from the weigh hopper. This time can vary due to material flow characteristics, and the size of the batch that is programmed into the blender control. Experimentation with this setting can allow the operator to determine the best cycle for the material being weighed.

5-8-7 Weigh Hopper Dump Delay Time

The dump delay time is the amount of time from the end of metering the last ingredient until the start of the actual dump cycle. The start of the dump cycle is marked by the opening of the weigh hopper dump valve. This value has a range from 1 second to 999 seconds. To view and change the current dump delay time, enter the Setup Menu, select “Mixer
