G R A V I M E T R I C A U G E R F E E D E R
Number of seconds after loader finished before correction accumulators are readjusted and error
checking resumes. Whole seconds
NWA
No Weight Adjustment – Grams
Factory Default - MGF-4: 00100, MGF-8: 00100
If the material in the hopper goes below this value in grams, stop making adjustments to error
correction.
XMR
Extruder Minimum Rate – Grams/Second
Factory Default - MGF-4: 00000, MGF-8: 00000
For Extrusion control only – When a value is specified, this is the minimum rate (grams per
second) that the MGF will run when the extruder slows down.
SPR
Steps Per Revolution – Number - DO NOT CHANGE THIS PARAMETER
Factory Default - MGF-4: 06400, MGF-8: 06400
Stepper motor micro steps per revolution. With a current MGF motor, there are 200 step per
revolution and 32 hardwired micro steps or 6400 (200 x 32).
RPM
Maximum Revolutions Per Minute - Number - DO NOT CHANGE THIS PARAMETER
Factory Default - MGF-4: 00100, MGF-8: 00100
Software defined maximum number of revolutions per minute based on hardware capabilities.
PMR
Prime Motor Rate
Factory Default - MGF-4: 00020, MGF-8: 00020
Software defined maximum number of revolutions per minute when running the Prime Function. A
slower speed is used during PRIME to prevent overfills.
LCT
Load Cell Tolerance - GEN5 only. GEN6 does not use this parameter.
Factory Default - MGF-4: 00505, MGF-8: 00505
This parameter has 2 parts, xxx.yy. The left three digits (xxx) are the number of sequential raw
count readings before snapping to the new value (00505 = 5 sequential readings). The right two
digits (yy) are the difference between 2 sequential raw count readings (00505 = 5 raw counts) if
the latest raw count reading is less than yy, then continue to use the previous reading however, if
xxx readings in a row are the same value, then use to the latest reading.
BFS
Bin Full Settle - stepper motor only
Factory Default - MGF-4: 00020, MGF-8: 00020
If the bin weight spikes ± BFS grams beyond the target rate, then LOAD will appear and error
correction is halted until the bin weight settles again.
RCP
Recipe Number - Number
Factory Default - MGF-4: 00000, MGF-8: 00000
Recording purposes only, set the MGFs recipe number returned in the MLAN commands.
This field stores a 5-digit number 00000-99999.
WKO
Work Order Number - Number
Factory Default - MGF-4: 00000, MGF-8: 00000
Recording purposes only, set the work order number returned in the MLAN commands.
This field stores a 5-digit number 00000-99999.
OPR
Operator Number - Number
Factory Default - MGF-4: 00000, MGF-8: 00000
Recording purposes only, sets the operator number returned in the MLAN commands.
This field stores a 5-digit number 00000-99999.
NMA
No Metering Alarm - Continuous mode only
Factory Default - MGF-4: 33500, MGF-8: 33500
This parameter has 3 parts: x.y.zzz
Leftmost digit (x) is the number of times the rate is below the threshold before the alarm is turned
on (33500 = 3 counts). Second digit from the left (y) is the number of times the rate is above the
threshold before the alarm is turned off (33500 = 3 counts). The rightmost 3 digits (zzz) are the
percentage of target rate (1/10th of a percent) (33500 = 50.0%).
