5.  Add the calibration weight to each load cell mounting bracket and write down the 

value displayed in “weight”, as in step 4. 

6.  Subtract the values recorded in step 4 from step 5.  This is the measured weight.  If 

the measured weight is within a 0.003 pounds of the weight stamped on the 
calibration weight, then you are within spec.  If not, follow the steps above to 
calibrate the blender.  (If your blender is frequently out of calibration, verify the 
operator is being cautious removing the weigh hopper during clean out.) 

7.  Press “Done” until you have reached the Recipe screen.   

8.  ***Anything in the Diagnostics Menu that is not covered here is in the Detailed 

Controller Setup Section*** 

Feeder calibration should be done on all Auger blenders prior to start-up.  This allows the 
blender to configure the parameters which will best suit the auger size and gearbox ratio of 
the feeder.  To perform a feeder calibration, the operator must enter the “Feeder 
Calibration” screen (see menu structure), select a feeder number, then touch “Press Here.”  
The feeder calibration will start automatically and will notify the operator when complete.  If 
the operator so desires, they can repeat the process by entering in a new feeder number and 
touching the “Press Here”button.   

If the blender does not see enough weight gain during the calibration process or if the weigh 
hopper reaches maximum weight, then an error is given and the calibration is a failure.  
Another useful feature on the “Feeder Calibration” screen is the ability to manually enter in 
the “weight per second” values.  This increases the blender learning process and the values 
can be recorded for future blending. 

This screen allows the operator to configure the alarm settings for each individual feeder.  It 
can configure whether a feeder will retry during the metering of a batch, and enable or disable 
the “Out of Material” alarm for any feeder. If the alarm flag is set to “Stop”, the blender will 
not continue.  It stops on that component continuing to try and meter.  The optional low level 
proximity switches have their own separate alarm.  The alarm will sound, but does not stop 
the blender. To configure each hopper do the following: 

1.  Enter the Setup Menu. 

2.  Once in the Setup menu, press “Alarm Setup.”  This will take you to the “Alarm 

Flags & Feeder Setup” screen.
