Gravimetric Batch Blenders w/Mitsubishi Control Chapter 8: Addendum 94
Feeder Setup
This screen allows you to modify the type of each feeder. In most cases, the user will want to
keep regrind on hopper 3 because that blender has been specifically designed to handle the
regrind. These settings should only be modified under special circumstances.
If the blender is configured in “Quickset Mode” then one hopper must be configured for
Regrind and only one hopper must be configured for Virgin material. If this is incorrect, a
message will be given on the Recipe Screen.
Customer Setup Menu
Units
This screen allows the user to change the blender’s unit of measurement. The entire blender
can be configured in either Kgs. or Lbs., while the Target vs. Actual data can be configured
for either regardless of the blender’s units.
Network Setup
This screen allows the blender to be configured for use with the Ethernet Option. The
blender will automatically configure the Ethernet module’s IP Address and Subnet Mask if
the configurator is enabled. Whenever you modify the IP Address or subnet, you either need
to reboot the PLC or touch “Send Ethernet Config to Module.”
