5-5-4 Verifying Calibration (Recommended on a periodic basis to
ensure accuracy)
1. Login by touching “login” from the Inventory Page and enter
“5413”, then touch the Sterling logo to access setup.
2. Touch “Calibration” and then “Direct Scale Readout”.
3. Remove the weigh hopper.
4. Locate the weight display for each of the two load cells, directly
below “Current Bits.” Write down the displayed value.
5. Add the calibration weight to each load cell mounting bracket
and write down the value displayed in “weight”, as in step 4.
6. Subtract the values recorded in step 4 from step 5. This is the
measured weight. If the measured weight is within a 0.003
pounds of the weight stamped on the calibration weight, then
you are within spec. If not, follow the steps above to calibrate
the blender. (If your blender is frequently out of calibration,
verify the operator is being cautious removing the weigh hopper
for clean out.)
7. Press “Done” until you have reached the Recipe screen.
8. ***Anything in the Diagnostics Menu that is not covered here is
in the Detailed Controller Setup Section***
5-6 Controller Mode Setup
Setting up a recipe
1. Login by touching “login” from the Inventory Page and enter “5413”, then
touch the Sterling Logo to access setup.
2. Press “Recipe Format” and toggle through the EZ, Percentage or Parts
Modes.
3. While in the “Recipe Format” screen, the following areas will need to be
configured:
Batch Size: This allows the operator to change the size of the
batch to be made. A value will need to be entered
between 0.5 to 199.9. This can also be changed
while making a batch without affecting the current
running batch. If the size is changed then you will
need to touch “Accept New Recipe” on the Recipe
screen before the change takes place. This feature
allows stored recipes with different batch sizes to
easily be loaded without the operator having to
reconfigure the blender every time they want to load
a stored recipe.
