Configuration: Deviation alarm
The TrueFeed automatically adjusts its motor speed to the desired setpoint. The controller is able to detect and
alarm when the setpoint is not reached within a set percentage. If, after normally performed speed
adjustments, the setpoint is consistently not reached, the controller will give an alarm signal and show
"Maximum deviation exceeded" in the display.
If the setpoint it not reached within the set percentage it is a result of:
Partial or complete blockage by sticky or hard flowing material.
Inaccurate feeding because material is not uniform in size.
Disturbance of the weight signal, for example by mechanical blocking of the TrueFeed load frame
The Maximum deviation setting can be set in the CONFIGURATION menu:
Deviation alarm: xx%
Time
Example:
The Deviation alarm setting in the configuration menu is default set to 25%
The setpoint (color set) is set to
-the MAXIMUM limit value will be
-the MINIMUM limit value will be
When the maximum deviation message (Error 01, page 32) appears in the display of the controller, it shows the measured deviation (in percent) of the
setpoint.
Configuration: Auto start
Enable/disable auto startup after a voltage dip or when the main power has been switched OFF.
When enabled, the unit will continue feeding automatically after a voltage dip or when the main power has
been switched OFF.
Configuration: Master reset
Reset alarm history (ALARMS). All alarm/warning messages saved in the alarm history will be
removed.
Reset material calibrations (MATER.) All material calibrations will be removed.
Reset production jobs (JOBS). All Jobs will be removed.

Configuration: IP
IP-address is used in a network environment (TCP/IP protocol). (For example 192.168.001.001)
When a Dual TrueFeed is part of a network, the controller must have an IP-address for identification.
This IP-address has to correspond with the IP-address of your computer. Ask your network administrator for a unique address.
