and Dump Setup” screen, and then select “Dump Delay”.

The default time is factory set at zero seconds. This delay time is used to start the mixer prior to dumping the material from the weigh hopper into the mix chamber of the blender.

5-8-8 Weigh Hopper Dump Cycle

The dump cycle allows the weigh hopper dump valve to cycle, or open and close, a number of times prior to commencing with the next batch cycle. The setting allows from 1 to 9 dump cycles between batches (open and closed cycles).

The normal and default factory setting is 1, meaning the weigh hopper dump valve will open at the end of the weighed batch and close after the batch is discharged into the mixer.

Setting the dump cycle to more than one cycle may be useful when blending high static, dusty material or those that have sticky tendencies. This will cycle the dump valve open and closed to allow any material that may cling to the dump valve.

To enter the dump cycle menu, first enter the Setup menu by pressing the “Sterling” icon from the main menu. Enter the password and press enter. Next, press the button marked “Mixer and Dump Setup”. The display will show the “Mixer and Dump Setup” menu. Press the “Dump Cycle” key to enter a dump cycle value and press enter. Please refer to the menu structure tree shown on page 51.

5-8-9 Feeder Alarm Setup & Flags

This screen allows the operator to configure the alarm settings for each individual feeder. It can configure whether a feeder will retry during the metering of a batch, and enable or disable the “Out of Material” alarm for any feeder. If the alarm flag is set to “Stop”, the blender will not continue. It stops on that component continuing to try and meter. The optional low level proximity switches have their own separate alarm. The alarm will sound, but does not stop the blender. To configure each hopper do the following:

1.) Enter the Setup Menu.

2.) Once in the Setup menu, press “Alarm Setup.” This will take you to the “Alarm Flags & Feeder Setup” screen.
