Dispensing Material from a Scale

Use the following steps to dispense material from a scale.

Press the

Start

button on the unit. The system verifies if:

• E-Stop is pulled out

• A valid target weight is entered

The system does the following during this process.

• Increments the consecutive number by one

• Tares the scale to zero (net mode)

The system begins dispensing either of three speeds while the 920i screen displays real time sequence progress.
The displayed net weight will continue showing more negative as weight is dispensed, until the target weight
presets are achieved.

The three dispensing speeds include:

• Single speed dispensing - The system turns on fast dispense until the target weight/preact weight is satisfied.

• Parallel speed dispensing - Turns on the fast dispense and slow dispense until the dribble weight is satisfied.

The system then turns off the fast dispense and leaves the slow dispense on until the target weight/preact
weight is satisfied.

• Dual speed dispensing - Turns on the fast dispense until the dribble weight is satisfied. The system turns on

the slow dispense until the target weight/preact weight is satisfied.

If during the dispensing cycle the system determines that the material supply on the scale has run empty, the system
will pause the automatic process and prompt for a resupply of material. The current dispensing process can resume
from where it left off by pressing

Start

.

The system does the following when the target/preact is reached.

• Turns off the output based on the dispensing mode

• Updates the subtotal weight and number of dispenses

• Updates the total and number of dispenses

• Turns on the Dispense Complete output

The system delays for the Delay After Dispense time before it exits the sequence and ready for the next dispense.
