BATCH SCREEN
By pressing softkey3 located under the word Batch on the Parts Select Screen, a
six-decade Batch counter is available.
Additional information on how to access this
screen can be found in the operator display overview in Appendix G of this
manual.
This is typically used to count the pieces required to fill a carton, with the product
being cut. The batch counter counts up to the batch preset and resets to zero. As
the accumulated count reaches the alarm preset the batch pre-warn output-3 ener-
gizes then when the batch preset is reached the batch complete output-2 briefly
energizes and both outputs turn back off. Sample/Manual cuts are not counted.
When enabled the count continues to accumulate even if the batch display is not
being viewed. It is also possible to turn this counter off or on.
Change Softkey1
Under the counter, on the left is a soft key labeled Change. Pressing this key dis-
plays the Select Batch Area screen. The operator can then choose to set the batch
or alarm preset.
On/Off Softkey2
Under the counter near the center is a soft key labeled On or Off. Pressing this key
while On is displayed will disable the counter. Likewise pressing this key while
Off is displayed enables the counter.
Reset Softkey3
Under the counter, on the right is a soft key labeled Reset. Pressing this key will
zero the batch counter.
EXIT or PREV, fixed function keys return the display to the Parts Select screen.
