TrueBlend™ Operation
Edition: February 2008 67
The batch size limit multiplier controls the maximum batch dispensed, regardless
of the condition of the (too much material) alarm button. All blender weigh bins
have some excess volume capacity to accommodate variations in material bulk
density. This setting uses that excess capacity to improve accuracy.
NOTE
If running high percentages of light density material (regrind) you should re-
duce the maximum batch weight setting for this particular model. (See sec-
tion 7.10.2 Setting Weight Bin Batch Weight.)
Precision Mode – If running precision or natural blend and the first ingredient is
overfed by a large amount the rest of the batch will be diluted as much as possi-
ble based upon the maximum batch limit.
7.7.5 Activating Batch Setting
Î From the Blender Status screen,
press the Settings navigation button.
The blender Settings screen will appear
as shown at right. The bottom panel on
this screen allows one to access the
Batch Mode screen where the Batch
Mode of operation can be Turned On and
setup for the amount of blended material
in that batch.
Setting the blender in the Batch Mode
In normal operation the blender will
continue to make individual blended
batches of material until the level sensor
is satisfied or the blender is turned off by
the selection button on the Blender Status
screen. When placed in the Batch Mode
the blender will blend the current settings
or recipe until the preset Batch Weight is
accomplished and then stop.
Î To activate the Batch Mode, press the
off button in the top panel position.
The “gray” button will change to “green”
indicating this mode is now activated.
