Recipe
The Write Recipe command allows users to configure an entire recipe remotely. See
, for
more details on recipes and recipe parameters. The return registers will echo the arguments received.
NOTE:
NOTE:
NOTE: The recipe must be enabled via the ADM before it can be loaded for mixing.
NOTE:
NOTE:
NOTE: If a recipe is Linked, writing to a recipe will also affect the same recipe for the other Mix Unit.
Example: Configure Mix Unit # 1 Recipe 6 for
Color = 2, Catalyst = 1, Color Flush Sequence = 2, Catalyst Flush
Sequence = 3, Mix Ratio Set Point = 1.50:1, Potlife = 10 minutes, and Mix Pressure Tolerance = 40%.
