TR-1 WITH 99 FORMULAS (UP TO 4 INGREDIENTS EACH)
This unit has 99 formulas which control relay outputs to
fill the scale hopper to the correct net weights.
The system will test for over tolerance of each net
ingredient and will give an alarm output if any ingredient
exceeds its tolerance percentage.
An alarm will also sound if material does not flow within
an adjustable time period.
Each ingredient has a total material accumulator and this
data can be printed and cleared at any time.
Calibrate the TR-1 using the main TR-1 calibration manual.
Parameter #00 has been changed to print the scale name.
Set to 00 for no scale name print
Set to 01 to print "CEM"
Set to 02 to print "AGG"
SET-UP:
The following FUNCTION entries set the values for free fall
compensation / jog point, jog relay on/off time, ingredient
tolerance, no-flow alarm, and dump-down-to point.
Free-fall / jog point is set to the amount early to stop
the ingredient. For example, to stop the #2 ingredient at 30
lbs.
before the scale reaches the target weight, then set the
free-fall for #2 ingredient to a value of 30.
(Function #2 = 30)
If the Jog on time is set to a number other than zero, the
ingredient relay will go into the jog-feed mode until the
target weight is met.
Jog-feed times
When a jog feed on time is set for the ingredient, the
system will jog feed when in the PREACT range. The relay will
energize for the time period set by the "JOG FEED ON TIME"
setting, then turn off for the "JOG FEED OFF TIME", then test
to see if the ingredient target is met. This repeats as
necessary until the target is met.
The jog feed times are set as a 4 digit number: the first 2
digits are the off time and the last 2 digits are the on
time.
example: the entry of 1002 means that the relay will turn
on for 02 samples and turn off for 10 samples
If the DUMP option is installed, then set Function 0 to the
value that the scale must dump down to before the dump gate
will close.
FUNCTION 0= Dump down to value.
1= Free-fall for ingredient #1
2= Free-fall for ingredient #2
3= Free-fall for ingredient #3
4= Free-fall for ingredient #4
5= Jog off/on for ingredient #1
6= " for ingredient #2
7= " for ingredient #3
8= " for ingredient #4
10= Time period before alarm sounds if no product
flows (Set to the number of display updates)
11= Tolerance % over-fill for #1
12= Tolerance % over-fill for #2
13= Tolerance % over-fill for #3
14= Tolerance % over-fill for #4
1. Press and hold the FUNCTION button until the data lamp
lights.
2. Enter the function number desired and press the enter
button.
3. The display will show the current setting for this
function. Use the keypad to alter this value and press
enter when finished.
FORMULA SELECTION:
Rotate the formula number thumbwheels to the desired
formula number. (00 to 99)
SETPOINT ENTRY:
1. Press and hold the SETPOINT button until the data lamp
lights.
2. Enter the ingredient number (1-4) desired, then press
enter.
3. The display will show the current value for this
ingredient.
4. Use the keypad to alter the value, then press enter.
5. Repeat steps 1 to 4 for any ingredients to change.
VIEWING THE FORMULA:
When the sytem is not running a batch, the ID button can be
pushed to view the contents of the selected formula. The
display will flash thru each setpoint (1,2,3,4).
When the system is running, pressing the ID button only
shows the formula number of the formula that is running.
This may be used to verify the setting of the thumbwheels
when the start button was pushed. Note that it is possible to
run a different formula for each scale but this is not
advised.
OPERATE:
1. Set the formula number desired.
2. Assure that the scale is empty.
3. Press the GREEN start button, and note that the lamps
flash to indicate that the system is in the run mode.
4. The system will fill each ingredient that has a value that
is not zero, or less than the free-fall setting. The
printer output will identify the ingredient and the amount
that was loaded into the scale.
5. When finished it will return to the GROSS display mode,
and the lamps will stop flashing. The printer will print
the total of all materials loaded.
OPTIONAL DUMP:
1. Press the DISCH button.
2. The dump relay will activate until the gross weight gets
down to the value set by FUNCTION #0.
NOTES:
To stop the system before finishing the complete batch, press
the "CLEAR" button.
To override a tolerance alarm, press the GREEN start button.
INVENTORY TOTALS:
1. When the system is not running, press the PRINT button.
2. The printer will print the total weight used for each
ingredient.
3. The display will show all dashes.
4. To clear the totals, press the CLEAR button.
5. To keep the totals, press the ENTER button.
