6.1.7 The auger and conveyor operating buttons
As has already been described, two identical functions blocks, which are merely
distinguished by a backlit symbol in the centre of the relevant button block, are available for
controlling the auger and the conveyor.
Otherwise, operation of the auger and conveyor control system is completely identical.
Manual button:
The MANUAL button switches the auger or conveyor drive to manual mode.
In this case, the auger or the conveyor runs at maximum speed.
The function LED integrated into the button indicates to the user that this
mode is currently active.
The button is pressed again for deactivation.
Activation of manual mode additionally ends any AUTO mode which may
previously have been active.
Reverse button:
The REVERSE button switches the auger or conveyor drive to so-called
"reverse" mode, i.e. the auger or the conveyor runs in the opposite direction in
this case.
Reverse mode is only maintained as long as the button is kept depressed, and
ends automatically on releasing the button.
Auto button
The AUTO button switches the auger or conveyor drive to auto mode.
In this case, the auger runs at a speed proportionate to the sensor distance.
The function LED integrated into the button indicates to the user that this
mode is active.
The button is pressed again for deactivation.
Activation of auto mode additionally ends any manual mode which may
previously have been active.
If the "auger" or "conveyor" display menu is not active at the point in time at
which the button is pressed, the menu is automatically started.
