Operator Displays

The Slide Gate/Auger blending system utilizes a standardized menu format. Each screen was designed to be user-friendly and provide the operator with the necessary information to run the blender.

Figure 33: Typical Recipe Entry Operator Screen

A typical menu is shown in the figure above. This display, which is defaulted to when the controller is turned on, provides the operator with the following information and options:

•The ability to change Recipe Values

•Accept a newly entered Recipe

•Start or Stop the blender

•Access to the Recipe Book

•Access to the Clean-out Screen

•Access to the Inventory Screen

•Access to the Controller Setup Screen

The menu tree shows the structure for a standard Slide Gate/Auger blender.

When the unit is initially installed the Manual Control menu will be used. This screen is primarily used for trouble shooting the blender. All outputs can be controlled manually and all digital inputs from the proximity switches can be viewed. Pressing the “Manual Control” key when in the “Setup” menu accesses this screen. To gain access to the “Setup” menu, a password will be requested.
