TOLERANCE: balance software accepts mass of an ingredient if it is
within set percent tolerance of total ingredient's mass (±%) - (data
acquired from database of products).
THRESHOLDS: the software accepts mass of an ingredient as correct if
it is within set thresholds (data acquired from database of products).
Selected relation is in effect for all ingredients in the formula making
process.
If during formula making process one of the ingredients mass shall be
excedeed (ingredient mass is not within the set percent tolerance, but it
exceeds its upper set point in relation to its target mass) upon
confirmation of ingredient mass the software shall display a message
<VALUE OUT OF RANGE, RECALCULATE THE FORMULATION?>. Upon
confirmation the software shall automatically recalculate mass of other
ingredients so that mixture proportions were correct. Option is available
when ingredients' data of ingredients database comply with a selected
option <MEANS OF INGREDIENT VERIFICATION>, i.e. an ingredient is
specified with thresholds and <THRESHOLDS> value is selected for <
MEANS OF INGREDIENT VERIFICATION > option. For lack of unity
between data automatical recaclulation is not available, i.e. thresholds
are entered for the ingredient whereas <MEANS OF INGREDIENT
VERIFICATION> is set to value <TOLERANCE>.
− Multiplier's editing, enables making multiple mixtures according to a
selected formulation in a single weighing process:
o YES, on selecting a formulation for processing, the software
requests for specifying multiplier's value used for multiplying mass
of each ingredient while weighing. Inserted value is in effect for all
ingredients in the formula making process.
o NO, inserting multiplier value is disabled, default value is set to
<1>
− Printout, means of using the function is given in point 10.8. "Additional
parameters on weighing process".
22.2. Formulation – quick access keys
Each of working modes features a set of default quick access keys which are
automatically displayed on mode activation. The set of keys can be modified
by selecting other quick access keys to the bottom bar of the display. Such
process requires appropriate operator's access level.
22.3. Adding formulas to the Database of Formulas
Database of formulas consists of formulas names, and ingredients with names
and mass forming a formulation. Each product used for formula making
process is saved in the database of products. When preparing a formulation,
the first step requires naming the formulation, and then adding ingredient's to
already named formulation.
The software operates intuitively, and commands a user to follow displayed
information.
