Recipe Book (Storage) Menus
In many applications, it is favorable to hold several recipes in the memory of the blending
system. The Slide Gate/Auger blender has provided for this by incorporating the
manufacturer’s recipe book software.
The recipe book is capable of holding 50 different recipes. These may be stored and recalled
by number. During this section of the manual, the operator may wish to revert to the Menu
Tree Diagram on page 59 of this manual.
It is important to note that the recipe book only stores and recalls recipes. The blender will
operate on the current recipe only, so a recipe must be recalled from the book to the current
recipe for it to be active.
Each recipe stored in the recipe book may be displayed and/or modified. Only the current
recipe will be blended.
Always verify that the Current Recipe is showing what you want to run, and that the
correct recipe has been downloaded from the book.
The recipe book section contains the following Items:
• Save Running Recipe to the Book
• Load a Stored Recipe from the Book
• Display a Stored Recipe
• Erase One Recipe or the Entire Recipe Book
