Materials Rate Calibration
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DO THIS.
Software is set to expect STANDARD hardware. If a device meters at a much lower feed rate then expected, the software will take
10 to 20 cycles to fully adjust. During this time cycles will take longer.
An example of this is a system using a 1/2" auger instead of 1".
If you don't mind letting the system SELF ADJUST, or your hardware is STANDARD, then:
