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 accurate feed gate setting value.

• Conveyor 1 Rate
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: You must either manually enter conveyor rate value or perform a CFR calibration routine for each
product and channel combination, otherwise misapplication will occur.

Conveyor Rate Look-Up

A pop-up screen will display a warning when a product is assigned to a container or bin for the first time
and has not been calibrated. The warning prompts the operator to review product density and conveyor
rate settings.

Conveyor rates for previously applied products can be
found by first pressing the Spreader Control button
which opens the Spreader Control screen.

The Spreader Control screen has a tab for each control
channel/product being applied. Select the desired channel
and press the Conveyor Rate button.

CAUTION: For proper machine performance and accuracy, Product Density should be measured for every
application load.
