The control interface provides you with several different options for
monitoring status, entering configuration parameters, and cycling the
feeder.
To fully understand how the control interface works, you must first
understand the Run Display. The default menu from which you will
start all control functions is called the Run Display. This screen is the
default screen that is shown when you press any key after powering
On the machine.
The Run Display for batch control is a real-time reporting tool con-
taining information on the status of the feeder, such as run speed,
number of batches fed for a particular job, and the batch size.
There are three types of status messages available for viewing from
the Run Display screen: Ready, Suspended, and Running.
Ready The feeder is ready to feed when faults (miss, double,
and guard open) are cleared and the display reads
"ready."
Suspended The feeder will not feed when it receives a flight sig-
nal. Pressing the CYCLE key will advance the feeder
to the "Ready" mode. Pressing the CYCLE key again
will cause the feeder to feed.
Running The feeder is currently feeding product (cycling).
• When the feeder is "ready" to receive a flight signal, the word
"Ready" will scroll across the top line. From the Run Display, you
can adjust the speed of the feeder by pressing the UP/DOWN Ar-
row keys.
• When the feeder is "suspended" (or idle), the word "Suspended"
will scroll across the top line.
• When the feeder is "running," a rotating wheel is displayed.
Procedures for operating the feeder via the control interface are pro-
vided in Section 3, How to Operate.
