The OS/OA System contains several operator friendly recipe menus.
This section of the manual lists these recipe menus:

To enter the OS/OA Recipe menu, select Item #2 from the main menu.
Recipe format option is used to select one of the three available
formats: “EZ” Mode, Percentage Mode or Parts Mode. (“EZ” mode is
the default setting preset at the factory.) In addition, every feeder in the
blending system can be assigned as either ‘Used’ or ‘Off’ (Percentage
or Parts recipe formats), or as a material type (REGRIND, COLOR,
NATURAL, ADDITIVE or UNUSED) in “EZ” Mode recipe format.
The feeder metering order is useful when the dispensing sequence
needs to be changed. For more details on this setting, refer to page 65.
