Configuring the Discrete Batch Application
Batch management functions are shown at the top of the window:
• To specify the preset to use for batching, select it from the dropdown list at the top of the
Batcher Control window, and click
Apply
.
• The current target is displayed. Depending on the setting of
Lockout target
, you may or may
not be able to change the value from this screen. To change it, enter the new target value and
click
Apply .
• To inhibit batch, inhibit batch totalizer, or inhibit batch flow, select the appropriate checkboxes
and click
Apply
. For a discussion of these functions, see the preceding section.
• To reset, start, stop, resume, and end a batch, use the batch control buttons. These functions
may also be assigned to a discrete event or discrete input (see Section B.3.4). For a definition
of these functions, see Table B-4.
Status of the batch application is shown at the bottom of the window. A red light indicates that the
associated condition is active.
B.5 Performing Batch AOC calibration
Batch AOC (Automatic Overshoot Compensation) keeps the actual quantity delivered as close as
possible to the batch target, by minimizing the amount of overshoot.
If batch AOC is enabled (see Section B.3.2), batch AOC calibration is required to provide data for the
compensation process. Thereafter, batch AOC calibration is recommended:
• Whenever consistent overshooting or undershooting of the target occurs
• If equipment (valve or pump) is changed
Note: If batch AOC is not enabled, you cannot perform batch AOC calibration.
To perform batch AOC calibration using ProLink II:
1. Choose
ProLink > Calibration > AOC Calibration
.
2. Click
Start Calibration
. The
AOC Calibration Active
light turns red, and will remain red
while batch AOC calibration is in progress.
3. Run 2–10 batches.
4. When overshoot has been adequately minimized, click Save Calibration .
