DOSAGE
The programme has been made to manage automatic/manual multi component dosages, in loading and in
unloading, with tolerance control, accumulation, and printing of the executed formulas.
The input/output allows for the automatic dosage management, for the selection of the formulas and for
other functions (see technical manual).
To start the dosage, one should start the cycle as described in the following sections.
6.1
Function of the activities and formulas
- A formula
is the sequence of the activities which allow to execute the desired dosage.
- An activity
is each single part, component or material that makes up the dosage.
The available activities are:
AUTOMATIC DOSAGE
MANUAL DOSAGE
UNLOADING
TIMER
PAUSE
MANUAL WEIGHT
REMOTE DOSAGE
SYNCHRONIZATION
Each activity executes a specific function, shown in the following sections.
It is possible to assign one of the available outputs to each activity (except for the last two activities):
- the instrument’s outputs start from 1; enter 0 to create an activity without linked outputs.
- Refer to the technical manual for further details regarding the maximum activity outputs available and the
correspondence on the terminal board.
In order to execute a dosage, one must first of all identify which are the single activities that have to be
carried out and enter these in the activity database; after this one must enter a formula in the formula
database, which must contain, in order, all the activities which must be carried out in order to execute the
desired dosage.
