12 - BATCH

Programming Functions

The 

12-BATCH 

menu is only displayed when 

Batch 

is

set to 

ON 

in the 

5-INPUTS

 menu.

Nsamples=

 is the number of batch cycles required to

define the value of compensation for valve closure. This
function is used to automatically determine the average
value for automatic compensation of system delay
(

Interval=h, 9-DATA LOGGER

 menu). Set this function

to “

0

” for manual entry of the compensation value.

Diff. thr=%

 is the value which defines the percentage of

maximum difference between the value of compensation
set (

V.com=, 12-BATCH menu

) and the value of

compensation set with the function 

Interval=h 

(

9-DATA

LOGGER

 menu).  Beyond this threshold the new value

of compensation will be automatically set (if Number of
batch samples is not zero).

V.com=

 is the value expressed in the same units of

measure of the selected volume and is the result of the
difference between the batch value setting and the
quantity of product dispensed due to delays in the system:
valve closing times, pump stop times, etc.

NOTE

: If the value of compensation needs to be set

manually, set the number of batch samples to “

0

(

Nsamples=, 12-BATCH 

menu).

V.pre=

 is the volume of liquid at which the pre-batch is

enabled. At this pre-batch volume, the output (if enabled)
is de-energized.  This value is a constant for all batch
quantities and is based on the units of measure of volume.
The pre-batch function is useful for fast and accurate
fillings.

Auto batch=

 Applying a voltage to the on/off input

terminals for more than 5 seconds, the valve driven from
the meter will open until the voltage is applied on the
input. When the product has reached the desired volume/
level removing voltage from the input: the meter closes
the valve and memorizes the volume of product
dispensed in the current memory batch (see “BATCH
FUNCTIONS”); the value obtained with this procedure
will be the volume of each consecutive batch. To modify
this value, repeat the operations above. This procedure
sets the safety timer to 1.25 times the time employed for
reaching the batch quantity.  It will also reset the count of
the number of batches.

BM auto sel=

 is the automatic selection of the first 4

formulas act as the duration of the pulse of start of the
batch (see page 12 “Input operation stage”). This function
is active only if it has not enabled the function 

Cons.mode

(

12-BATCH

 menu). Activating this function also excludes

the automatic compensation of the batch volume (the
value of 

Nsamples=, 12-BATCH

 menu will be

automatically set to zero). However, manual
compensation is possible introducing parameter 

V.com=,

12-BATCH

 menu.

Cons.mode=

  is the consent mode.  This function enables

the start and stop of batching using a constant signal
applied to the input instead of a pulse (see diagram on
page 12).  This signal stays 

ON 

through the entire batch.

This function automatically disables the functions 

BM

auto sel= 

and 

Auto batch 

(

12-BATCH 

menu).

Batch Function Enable

Enable one of the following functions to enable and
program the batch on the converter:

START/STOP 

batch from input (

5-INPUTS

 menu).

Out1

Out2 

(

6-OUTPUTS

 menu): assign one of these

output functions to one of the two inputs.
