Counters Functions Group

The Counters record operational and performance data about the
FT-70/75 and the production line it is operating on. This data is
useful for plant performance management and for machine
maintenance. Here are some other issues you should be aware of:
• The counters are active only for those functions that are active.
If you disable a function, the associated counter (or counters)
no longer include that function in the count.
• When you reset a counter, the current count is erased. If you
need the current count, you should record it before you reset
the counter
Total Throughput
Displays the total number of containers that passed through the
trigger beam. The counter automatically resets at 99,999,999.
Total Rejects
The total number of rejected containers. The counter automatically
resets at 99,999,999.
Total Rejects is the sum of the rejections from all active inspection
functions. If two functions reject the same container, only one total
reject count is recorded. The Reject Next Bottle function is included
in Total Rejects.
Total Underfills Rejected
The total number of underfilled containers that failed the fill level
inspection. The counter automatically resets at 99,999,999.
Total Overfills Rejected
Displays the total number of overfilled containers that failed the
fill level inspection. The counter automatically resets at 99,999,999.
Total Missing Cap/Lid
The total number of bottles that were detected with missing caps
or cans that were detected with missing lids. The counter automat-
ically resets at 99,999,999.
