SGB Batch Blender with Mitsubishi Controller
**Note: The blender monitors the operator’s entries and determines if the
recipe is valid before accepting the new recipe. If there is an error
(such as the recipe does not add up to 100% and the blender is in
Percentage Mode.) then a message is shown on the Recipe screen to
alert the operator of the problem. The “Accept New Recipe” button is
only shown if the recipe is valid and different from what is currently
running on the blender.

Recipes can also be changed while the blender is running. The new
accepted recipe is entered at the beginning of the next batch. This
allows the operator to modify the new recipe without affecting the
blender until they hit the “Accept New Recipe” button.
