• E-Stop Screen: The blender is equipped with an E-stop switch that
removes the power from all mechanical outputs. The E-Stop Screen
appears along with an audible alarm whenever the E-Stop is
activated. The operator can not access any screens until E-Stop is
deactivated. The Panel View will then put the screen back to the
display that the operator was on prior to hitting the E-Stop.
The objective of this section is to familiarize the reader with the SGB

blender, including the recipe book and recipe storage facilities.
Topics covered in this section are:

• Recipe Menu
All personnel operating the SGB blending system should read this
section of the manual before operating the blending system.
The general operation of the SGB blending system is as follows: Once
the system is properly installed and set up, the system will be ready for
operation. Please see the Installation and Setup chapter in this manual
for further information.
Once the SGB system is powered on, the unit will display the recipe
screen (the recipe format should be in “Quick Set” mode). Pressing the
highlighted box next to the feeder number, the operator can enter a
valid recipe or use a previously stored recipe from the recipe book.
Any feeder in the SGB blending system can be emptied and refilled with
a different material. To do a feeder clean out, the operator has to press
the “Clean Out” icon key from the recipe screen (the first screen that
appears on power up).
