detailed explanation of these printouts.
16. COMPUTER input / output
If you choose to gather material usage data automatically and
continuously by computer, then this connector allows for connection to
any IBM PC type computer operating under MS-DOS or WINDOWS.
The COMPUTER port is a DB9 (9 pin) male port. You will need a
specially wired cable from us to connect to the serial port on your
standard PC computer. Your computer operating system must be MS-DOS or
WINDOWS. You will need software from us for communicating with your
Autoweigh Blender. This software allows downloading settings and
retrieval of information and produces reports for those customers who
wish to take advantage of this feature. Either one or many Weigh Scale
Blenders can be connected to one computer. For multiple Weigh Scale
Blender systems, or communication over long distances, an additional
piece of hardware is required. All GB/WSB controllers are fully
programmed to communicate with your computer now or at a later date.
17. PANEL FUSE for duplex receptacle - 3 amp
Fuses the common power wire of the duplex receptacle (the color and
additive outputs). Since these outlets are only turned on one at a
time, each is protected to the full 3 amp rating of the fuse.
18. PANEL FUSE for processor - 1/2 amp
Fuses power to the circuit board power supply which includes all
solenoid outputs and solid state relay outputs.
19. INTERNAL FUSES
An in-line fuse is provided internally to protect the main 120 volt
power cord supply (10) amps. If this fuses blow, an internal short
circuit is indicated and we don't recommend that you try to fix it.
Remember, this unit carries a three year warranty; just send it back.
The MIX MOTOR timed power source and the AUGER FEEDER OUTLETS are
driven by internal solid state plug-in relays. These relays are
located on the circuit board mounted on the inside back surface of the
controller enclosure. A small 5 amp glass fuse is located to the right
of each relay. A spare fuse is also located on the board if
replacement is necessary.
20. THUMBWHEEL SWITCHES
The three sets of THUMBWHEEL switches have no effect unless they are
assigned to a particular output device. Entry of all SETTINGS is done
by using the KEYPAD. However, if you prefer, you may assign up to
three components to the Thumbwheel switches and then use these switches
to set and alter their settings.
Since only three switch sets are available, only 3 components can be
controlled in this manner. All others must use the keypad.
See ENTERING SETTINGS for more information on how to do this.
