Metering Test Screen
This screen is useful when testing the metering performance of each feeder. The user can
perform test to evaluate the mechanical standard deviation of the gate or auger. This test
meters for the calculated time based off the target weight entered on this screen. The blender
does not retry or adjust the time of the meter to reach the target. This allows you to open the
gate for several feeds using the same time. You can then record the Dispensed Grams and
plot the standard deviation of the gate. The other purpose of this screen is to verify that the
dispensed weight displayed is correct. You can perform a meter and then pull the weigh
hopper to weigh the material on a gram scale. Refer to the Troubleshooting Section of this
manual for additional details.
