Batch

 

 
Enables you to set the batch option to 

LoAd

 or 

u.LoAd

.  In this configuration, the parameter MUST be set for 

u.LoAd

 

to batch from the inventory bin into the weigh bin. 

 
Segmented display: 

 

 

 

3.  Press the SELECT key to enter BATCH menu, and 

.

should be displayed.

  

If 

 is displayed,

4.  Press the SELECT key and then

 is shown. 

 

5.  Press 

 and

 is displayed. 

 

Capacity (L.C.CAP) 

 
The load cell system capacity is the sum of all the load cells rated capacity in either pounds or kilograms. This 
parameter sets the calibration of the system.  To determine this value, multiply the number of load cells by their 
capacity. 
 

Example:   A four leg bin with 5k load cells would require an L.C.CAP setting of 20000 pounds. 

 

Segmented display: 

 

 

6.  Press the SELECT key. The display will show the current setting (default is 30000). 

 

7.  Use the 

 and 

 keys to increase or decrease the value.  Hold the key down to increase/decrease quickly. 

 

8.  Upon setting the appropriate value, press SELECT and the display will show

 

9.  Press the 

 key and 

 is displayed. 

      

Full Value 

 
This value is the maximum weight of a full bin in either pounds or kilograms as is for calibration of the LED bar graph 
level.  The value determines at what weight the bar graph will display completely full (all 16 LEDs lit).  Set this to the 
maximum amount of feed that you would consider the bin to be full.
