Controller Set-up
This section describes the proper setup of the Slide Gate blending system control parameters.
These parameters are operator changeable; however, these items should only require setup
during the initial installation. Only authorized personnel should change them. For security
reasons, the menu that is used to access these parameters is password protected.
Many of the variables and setup parameters have been preset at the factory and do not need to
be changed. However, this section of the manual will address all of the blender setup
parameters that were available at the time of printing. The purpose of this is to familiarize the
reader with all the setup parameters and their usage.
A complete listing of all default values is provided at the end of this manual.
• It may take 45-50 seconds for the screen to appear.
