Print Cycle Diagnostics –
When ON this sends a Cycle-by-Cycle printout after each
full dispense cycle to a USB drive inserted into the controller. When ON and with a USB
Flash Drive in the USB port, four lines of information about the dispense cycle that just
occurred will be sent to a file named PRINTER.TXT. The information in this file includes
dispense weight and percentage of each component, the internal rate numbers used by the
computer to determine dispense time, and the actual dispense time of each component.
This is excellent information to track the accuracy of each dispense cycle and the accuracy
of the entire system over an extended period of time. Can be printed as fixed width plain
text file or as a CSV file with or without the column headers (titles).
