RATE CALIBRATION
YOU DON'T 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:

To perform a RATE CALIBRATION:
Have the HOPPER LOADED with enough material to run for several cycles
without running out.
Have the "OFF AT END OF CYCLE" and "PAUSE" switches DOWN.
Press: * Display will say: (PASSWORD)
Press: 22222 Display will say: (P x)
If you are calibrating an auger feeder, operate it briefly to ensure it
is fully primed. To do so:
Press: OPER Display will say: (OPERATE )
Press: 5 (or 6) Run until auger is dispensing.
Press: DUMP This will empty the weigh bin.
Now you can CALIBRATE the material.
To do so:
Press: CAL Display will say: (CALIBRATE)
Press: 5 Component #5 will calibrate itself.
(or whatever component you are calibrating)
Repeat this two key calibration routine for EACH material that you
wish to calibrate. Only components that have a TYPE selected (not
"OFF") will operate.
Each time a dispense will occur, followed by weighing, followed by
a dump to empty the weigh bin.
Press: EXIT when all calibrations are done.
YOU ARE NOW READY FOR ACCURATE PRODUCTION BLENDING.
