Simple password protection:
PSWD Access to Recipe and Diagnostics menus are available
only through a password, set by using Option 7 in the
first-level diagnostics screen.
To toggle between the different options, press the
<5> key.
BRDY This mode permits the blender to pre-weigh a batch of
ingredients and hold them in the weigh hopper until the
mix hopper level switch is uncovered. The ingredients will
immediately dump after the level switch uncovers. This
eliminates a delay in making the batch before dumping.
The customer decides whether to run the unit in this
mode. If the blender is shaking (say, on an injection
molding machine), the weigh hopper load cells can be
fatigued over time by constantly holding weight in the
weigh hopper. This is also referred to as batch ready
mode.
This condition is not covered by the warranty.
To toggle this feature on and off, press the <6> key.
Programmable Switches (continued)
After all selections are made:
• Press the key.
The “Factory Setup Saved” message displays and the unit
automatically returns to the first level of the diagnostics menu.
• Press the key (again) to return to the Run menu.
Important!
Programmable switches should not be accessed by
inexperienced operators or inexperienced plant
personnel. Unauthorized changes may prevent the
blender from operating properly and may void part or all
of the warranty.
Call the AEC/HydReclaim Service Department for
assistance or for further explanation of these or any
other programmable switches, which may or may not be
shown in this manual.
