11. MIXER MOTOR OUTLET
This outlet is energized by the software for a time period following
the dump of the weigh bin. You may adjust this time in the parameter
table (MIX 00010). This time should be just long enough to provide
adequate mixing. Mixing for a longer period may contribute to a static
problem. Also, excessive mixing sometimes causes separation of pellets
of different size and weight. (MIX 00099) will cause the motor to run
for 360 seconds (6 minutes).
12. MIXER MOTOR ON/OFF/TIMED SWITCH
The Mixer ON/OFF/TIMED switch has been removed. To have the mixer
operate continuously, the MIX parameter may be set to 00099. 99 will
instruct the software to run the mixer for 6 minutes after the weigh
bin has emptied at the end of each cycle. This is more then enough
time. This limitation prevents accidentally running the mix motor for
hours on end when the blender is not actually operating.
13. MIXER MOTOR FUSE - 3 amp
This fuse is rated at 3 amps and protects the mixer motor circuit
separately from all other fuses. On 100, 200, and 400 series models,
this fuse protects the mix motor directly. On 900 and 1800 series
models, this circuit operates a 25 amp solid state relay in a separate
box. The mix motor is protected by a "motor starter" switch with a
"heater". This switch must be on for the motor to operate.
14. LOAD CELL input port
The system's two load cells are joined by a common connector that is
plugged into this port.
15. PRINTER output
This is a parallel printer port. A printer plugged in here allows four
types of information to be ported directly to a printer giving the
benefit of a permanent printed record. They are:
1. The totals of the material usage data.
(press VIEW and "*" keys or use the PRT parameter to
AUTOMATICALLY and periodically print these totals.)
2. A listing of the internal parameter table.
(press *77 in the PROGRAM mode.)
3. A printout of information after each cycle including actual
dispensed weights and percentages for every cycle. (press *54 in
the PROGRAM mode, use "*" to set printer flag ON.)
4. A printout of information after the TIME or CALIBRATE routines.
(*54 flag must be on)
Any common parallel printer that you would use with a small PC computer
may be used. Connect using a standard parallel printer cable, (34 pin
parallel Centronix connector to a DB25 IBM compatible connector),
available from us or at any computer store. See: PRINTED OUTPUTS for a
