You could change it here, but the SET routine is the proper way to alter this number. This parameter can also be set to ASSIGN this component to one of the three THUMBWHEEL switches. This also is normally done in the SET routine by using the SET key followed by a letter key (A,B, or C). When set to 10000, 20000, or 30000 the component will follow the TOP, MIDDLE, or BOTTOM thumbwheel switches respectively. The SET routine is the proper way to assign thumbwheels. In the special case when there are four components, and two or more are naturals, then one NATURAL can have its setting calculated automatically, based on the other natural settings, so that all natural settings total 1000. This is done by setting the CS parameter to 40000. This allows four components to be controlled by only three thumbwheel switches, three assigned, and the forth calculated automatically by default. If this is a four (or less) component system, then you are using this software because your components are not NATURAL, REGRIND, COLOR and ADDITIVE. Our standard "FOUR" software handles that combination in a simpler, more straightforward way. See KEYPAD, STAR FUNCTIONS, *04 for a rapid way to set up your system for 4 or less components. _AL Sets alarm functions _AL Alarm FLAGS. When material runs out, or for some other reason material does not dispense fully, these flags will instruct the controller what to do. 00000 = no alarm, no pause in process, no retries. This is sometimes useful for a Regrind dispense. 00001 to 00009 = sound alarm after specified number of retries and continue retries until successful. The process will not continue until the fault condition is corrected. The last digit determines the number of retries before sounding the alarm. This is appropriate for all important and necessary components. 00011 to 00019 = sound alarm after specified number of retries but then stop the retries and continue with the remainder of the cycle. The alarm will continue until the fault condition is corrected or until the next cycle begins. The last digit determines the number of retries before sounding the alarm. This would be appropriate if you wish to make several attempts at a dispense, such as regrind, but you wish the process to continue even without the component. 00021 to 00029 = same as 1 to 9, Stop Process, Sound Alarm, but NO more retries.

WEIGH SCALE BLENDER® MAGUIRE PRODUCTS, INC. Just sound alarm and wait. Press the RESET button to clear alarm and start the retries again. Appropriate ONLY if you absolutely want operator intervention to occur when material runs low. In other words you do not want any automatic loading or other correction to allow the process to continue. The first three digits of this parameter (_AL xxx00) may be used to STOP and ALARM the blender if an over dispense occurs by the number of grams specified. For example, CAL 02004 will cause the system to STOP and ALARM if the COLOR dispense is 20 grams over target. (C - OVER) will be displayed. Use PAUSE (or POWER OFF) to reset the Alarm condition. If a printer is connected, a standard cycle printout will occur. _XT Allows a setting entry of less then 00.1 _XT, is a number that will alter the value of the setting that you enter. The value of the XT parameter, is divided into the setting, thereby reducing the setting's value. The only valid entries are 10 and 100. When set to "00010" the decimal point is moved to the left one place and the setting is read as X.XX percent. When set to "00100" the decimal point is moved to the left two places and the setting is read as .XXX percent. This allows closer control where a requested dispense is less than 1 percent. When set to "00000", this parameter has no effect. _SE Use to lock out high settings or limit access _SE is the upper SETTING limits for this component. This allows a reasonable cap to be set for each component so that an operator cannot accidentally set the controls to an excessively high setting. For additives, these limits will ensure that expensive material is not wasted. Settings that are greater than the limit are held to the limit. EXAMPLE: If the highest color usage in your plant is 6%, then you can enter this upper limit in the parameter table. Since settings are stored as 1/10's of percent (##.#), the parameter would be: _SE 00060 Any setting above 060 is held to 6 percent. When a 1 is entered as the first digit of this parameter, (_SE 1xxxx), setting entries can only be made from the program mode. In this way access is limited to only those who know the password. _WT _TI Set AUTOMATICALLY by the CALIBRATE routine _WT, and _TI parameters are related to the flow rate or dispense rate of each material. These can be changed manually, set by the RATE CALIBRATION routine, or simply allowed to adjust automatically as necessary after each cycle. _WT and _TI are WEIGHT and TIME numbers that, taken together, indicate a dispense rate for the specified material (WT/TI). This rate is used to Edition: March 24, 2008 71
