When FT-
13 is in the “Ready” status (the top LED in the LED
bar is “on” ) press the keys shown on the left sequentially.
“d_FıLL “ means a start delay.
When the start input is activated, the filling starts after the
start delay. This period can be entered by keypad from 0.0 s
to 9.9 s. The delay parameter may be helpful for some
special processes.
“tArE ” is the minimum tare value.
The filling can start if the tare of the container is higher than
this value. It can be entered by numeric keys.
“tArE ” is the maximum tare value.
The filling can start if the tare of the container is smaller than
this value. It can be entered by numeric keys.
Condition: Safety > tare max.
If the filling valve doesn‟t go through the hole of the container,
this parameter saves the system. While the filling valve is
moving down and if the weight is higher than the “SAFEty
Weight”, then the valve moves up and the filling does not
start.
Zero range.
At the end of the filling, when the container is removed from
the platform, the weight has to be in the zero range for ending
the filling process.
“Gr-NET” defines if the the filling will be done as Gross or
Net:
0 = Gross
1 = Net
