Check the value of the mixer timer setting.

 

Check the value of the dump delay timer.

 

Check the mixer motor fuse. This is located in the control panel on the

 

SSR for the mixer motor. If the unit has two (2) power inlets with a

 

separate power inlet for the mix motor the overload fuse will be located in

 

the rear junction box on the blender frame.

 

Check the power source to the blender.

 

Check the load cell in diagnostics under direct scale readout. Place a

 

calibration weight on the weigh hopper; determine if the weight

 

corresponds.

 

Check the load cells to make sure that a pellet has not jammed under a

 

load cell.

 

Check the load cell connections to the control panel

 

Check the power supply voltage and readjust as necessary as described

 

earlier.

 

Check the memory battery voltage on the CPU board. If the battery is

 

dead, the blender “forgets” settings when the power is off. Replace it with

 

a new battery. Order a spare CPU board; send the replaced one back to

 

the factory to have a new battery holder and battery installed. If this is

 

done in the field, the controller warranty will be voided.
