Volumetric Mode
Press (*,8,7) to set flag for operation in a VOLUMETRIC mode. Use the * key to toggle the flag
ENABLED or DISABLED. Press EXIT when done. When power is turned off this flag is always
reset to OFF. With this flag ENABLED (VOLUMETRIC mode), the load cells are completely
ignored. Error correction and rate recalibration does not take place. The unit functions like a
volumetric feeder without checking or correcting for errors. Since load cell readings are ignored,
this flag allows operation even if the load cells become damaged. Dispense times will be based
entirely on the WT and TI parameters.
