5.8 Initiating data transfer to the batching or weighing system
(Weighing and batching systems module only)
If a recipe is displayed in the main window, you can use this module to
initiate the transfer of recipe data to a batching or weighing system.
1. In the main window, click on the Batching systems symbol or
in the Recipe menu on Send to batching system. The Batching systems
selection window appears.
2. If you wish, change the pre-selected recipe designation
or enter an additional description.
3. Click in the Batching systems selection field and select the desired
batching or weighing system from the list displayed.
The selection list only appears when more than one batching or
weighing system is activated ( see Section 22.4 «Batching systems
settings»).
4. Click on OK.
5.9 Measure current ink mixture
This menu option is used to transfer the reflectance values effectively
achieved to a mixed recipe. When the recipe receives this information, the
calculated reflectance is replaced by the measured one and all following
program calculations (particularly the correction calculation) are based
on the effective reflectance values. A recipe of this kind is proposed in
the standard way as pallet recipe. With this menu option it can be clarified
quickly whether a correction is necessary, since following measurement
of the mixture, the deviations of the color effectively achieved are shown
in comparison with the target color. It is not necessary to measure the
ink mixture for recipe correction.
1. Load the recipe associated with the ink mixture.
2. Click on Measure current ink mixture in Recipe menu.
You can also click on the recipe color field to open the window to
measure the current ink mixture.
3. Define the ink mixture.
Proceed in the same way as when defining a target color (
Section 5.2.3 «Defining a target color»).
