Stop

 

The active feed process will be stopped as soon as the current process is ready. The 
weigher will be emptied and the feed dosed out to the hoppers. Then the control 
computer will stop the feed process and set the process status to 

BLOCKED(STOPPED)

The process will remain blocked until it is released using the option 

Continue

Block

 

The process is stopped. If the feed process is active, the running process will be 
finished first. The weigher will be emptied and the feed dosed to the hoppers. 

The process will remain blocked until it is released using the option 

Release

Emergency stop

 

The current process will be stopped immediately. Weighing, dosing in and dosing out 
stop at once and the control computer gives a report. The process status will become 

BLOCKED(EMERGENCY STOP)

Resume the feed process as follows:   

After the feed process has been interrupted, it can be resumed.   

Select one of the following options, depending on the feed process status:   

Start

 

If the process status is 

READY

 or 

ENDED

.   

Continue

 

If the process status is 

EMERGENCY STOP

 or 

STOPPED

.   

Release

 

If the process status is 

BLOCK

Reset

 

After an emergency stop or if the feed process is not active. Only use the reset option in 
emergencies.   

Read the instructions on the display before finally carrying out the reset. Restarting the 
system takes longer after a reset. 

 

 

Before re-starting the process ensure the system is empty, as if no feeding 
cycle had been run. The weigher/blender, hopper and the transport system 
must be empty. 

After 

Start

Continue

 and 

Release

 the control computer resumes the feed process as follows: 

 

If the time of the feeding cycle has not yet elapsed, the control computer will supply feed if the feeding cycle 
permits this. If the feeding time has elapsed, the status will be automatically set to 

FREE

 so the next feeding 

cycle can start as normal.   

 

If the next feeding time is already active, then the next feeding cycle will start at once.
