Spinner Spreader Control Product Settings
These settings are shown in the Controller Settings window, accessed via the Spinner Control button on
the Run screen.
Note: Each of these settings described below must be set for each individual Product Channel (bin).
Changing any of these settings in the display does not make the needed adjustments on the product
applicator. Setting value and physical setting on the spinner bed must be verified for correctness prior to
any product application.
• Product Density
This density value (shown in pounds per cubic foot, or lb./ft.
3)
, is stored with each product and control
channel. Use the keypad to edit if needed.
Note: For proper machine performance and accuracy, you should check the Product Density daily.
• Feed Gate 1 Opening
Represents the feed gate opening for Conveyor 1. Measure the depth of product on the conveyor to ensure
an accurate feed gate setting value.
Note: By changing the Feed Gate value, the actuator will automatically change position to the desired
position.
• Conveyor 1 Rate (CFR Number)
This setting represents the volume of product dispensed by one revolution of the conveyor drive shaft (cubic
foot per revolution, or ft.
3
/rev.) This number is shown with the assumption that the conveyor shaft has a 1-
inch gate opening. This conveyor rate remains constant, regardless of the height of the feed gate opening.
CAUTION: New products will have a default CFR number the first time they are used. You must either
manually enter or perform a CFR calibration routine for each product once that product is created, otherwise
misapplication will occur.
