Process Variables Definitions
4.1 Total Input Count
Total Input Count increments by the factor setting each
time an input is received at the Input Count input. Total
Input Count can range from 0 to 99,999,999.
This process variable is stored in memory in case of a
power outage.
Reset job will clear this process variable to zero.
4.2 Total Output Count
Total Output Count increments by the factor setting
each time an input is received at the Output Count input.
Total Output Count can range from 0 to 99,999,999.
This process variable is stored in memory in case of a
power outage.
Reset job will clear this process variable to zero.
4.3 Batch Down Count
The Batch Down Count is the number of remaining
inputs necessary to trigger a batch output. As input counts
are received, this value counts down to zero. Each input
decrements the Batch Count Down by one. When zero is
reached, the Batch Down Count resets to the Batch Preset.
The Count input that is used by the Batch Down Count is
determined by the Batching Selection in Machine Setup. If
Feeder is the Batching Selection, the Batch Down Count
will be affected by the Input Count Input. If Delivery is the
Batching Selection, the Batch Down Count will be affected
by the Output Count Input.
Batch Down Count can range from 1 to 999.
This process variable is stored in memory in case of a
power outage.
Reset job will clear this process variable to zero.
Reset batch will load this process variable with the batch
preset.
4.4 Number of Batches
The Number of Batches is the number of times the
Batch Down Count has reached zero.
Number of Batches can range from 0 to 9999.
This process variable is stored in memory in case of a
power outage.
Reset job will clear this process variable to zero.
Reset batch will clear this process variable to zero.
4.5 Current Rate
The Current Rate is based on the number of Input
Count inputs received during the sample period.
The Current Rate is calculated every second.
The Current Rate is shown as rate per hour
TP10243-3
The Current Rate is rounded to the nearest hundreds.
Current Rate can range from 0 to 99,999,900.
This process variable is not stored in memory.
4.6 Main Drive Run Time
The Main Drive Run Time is the amount of time the
Drive output has been on since the last Clear All Memory
Reset in Maintenance Mode.
This value is displayed in the format HHHHHH.HH.
Main Drive Run Time can range from 0.00 to 999,999.99.
This process variable is stored in memory in case of a
power outage.
Reset ALL in maintenance mode will clear this process
variable to zero.
4.7 Main Drive Velocity
The Main Drive Velocity is the speed of the Tachom-
eter input.
This value is displayed in meters per minute.
This value is calculated every 300 milliseconds.
This process variable is not stored in memory.
4.8 Waste Count (Option)
The Waste Count is the difference between the Total
Input Count and the Total Output Count.
Waste Count is accessible by pressing and holding the Total
Count button followed by pressing the Total Output Count
button.
Waste Count can range from 0 to 99,999,999.
This process variable is not stored in memory.
Reset job will clear this process variable to zero.
5.0 Counter Setup Variables
5.1 Batch Preset
This parameter, accessible in the Batch Setup mode,
specifies the batch count that will be used by the Batch
Count Down. Zero is the default setting.
This value can range from 0 to 999.
5.2 Batch Output Type
This parameter, accessible in the Batch Setup mode,
specifies the batch output type that will be used when the
Batch Count Down reaches zero.
Available choices are Feed (FED), Delivery (DEL), Speed
(SPD), and Table (TBL).
