3.5.3 Batching operation

Batching allows the indicator to control up to three motors, timers, augers, gates, etc.
using the three outputs for the purpose of making batches based on weight.
There are four types of batching operation:
Other parameters, that are set in a password protected menu, affect the batching
operation.
The bargraph will sequentially light up to show from 0 to 100% of the batch weight in
all types of batching except the independent setpoints.

3.5.4 2-Speed filling

2-Speed is for a single ingredient with a dual speed filling control (Fast/Slow), typically
a valve or hopper gate that can be full open, partially open or closed. When the fill starts
both SP1 and SP2 are turned on (outputs activated) which should set the dual speed
control to full open (Fast speed). When the Out 1 value is reached SP1 and Output 1
are turned off and this should set the dual speed control to partial open condition (Slow
speed). When Out 2 value is reached SP2 and Output 2 are turned off to close the
control device and complete the fill.
