GENERAL PARAMETERS
FLG
Change this to enable the RECIPE, BATCH, FAST, and TAG keys
FLG is a SET of flags for turning on the RECIPE, BATCH, FAST and TAG keys. These
four keys will NOT WORK and there associated functions are not available, unless this
parameter is set properly.
When all digits are set to 0 (FLG 00000), all four functions are OFF.
The second digit set to 1 (FLG 01000), will turn the TAG key on.
The third digit set to 1 (FLG 00100), will turn the RECIPE key on.
The forth digit set to 1 (FLG 00010), will turn the FAST key on.
The fifth digit set to 1 (FLG 00001), will turn the BATCH key on.
The
TAG key is useful for entering information that you wish to be "tagged" to all printouts
and computer retrievals. Work Order and Operator numbers may be entered and
displayed. Any computer loaded recipe number may also be displayed.
The
RECIPE key is useful for storing thumbwheel switch settings under a single numbered
recipe. Up to 50 may be stored. To enable the RECIPE key, place a 1 in the 3rd position
of the parameter.
The
FAST key allows the unit to operate in a faster, higher output, mode. Output may be
doubled in this way. To enable the FAST key, place a 1 in the 4th position of the
parameter.
The
BATCH key allows you to signal that you have processed a certain amount of
material, or for filling a barrel or gaylord to the top without the need for a level sensor to
stop the process. To enable the BATCH key, place a 1 or 2 in the 5th (last) position of the
parameter.
Set to one (00001), the unit dispenses until the preset batch amount is reached and then
stops and alarms. Set to two (00002), the unit alarms but continues running when the
preset amount is reached.
See KEYPAD section, for full explanations of these 4 keys.
MIX
Change this to run the mixer for a longer timed period
MIX indicates the TIME that the mixer will run after the weigh bin dump valve opens. The
number is the mix time in seconds. Adequate mixing can be accomplished in a short time.
Additional mixing may cause separation and may create a static problem with the material.
The default value is (00015), allowing an initial mix time of 15 seconds. A maximum setting
of 29999 is possible, for a mix time of over 8 hours. Setting the mix time to 99 (MIX 00099)
will cause the mixer to run 360 seconds (6 minutes).
JOG JOG indicates the number of times the blade will jog after initial
mixing is ended, plus the time interval between these jogs.
After mix TIME is complete, the mix blade is jogged about 1 turn every 1/2 minute. These
jogs serve to level the pile of material in the mix chamber, insuring that the sensor does not
remain covered for too long. The first 3 digits (030xx) of the parameter indicate how many
