Operation Mode, Station Settings Menu
In most applications, each loading station can use different types of hoppers. The two
common types are standard hoppers and sight glass loaders. You’ll need to set up your
controller for the type of hopper you are using for each of the 12 loading stations.
The first submenu in the Station Settings menu is the Operation Mode.
To enter the Operation Mode submenu:
• Press the YES key at the following screen prompt.
Each station in the conveying system can be a standard configuration or a sight glass
configuration. Each hopper design operates in a slightly different manner.
In Standard mode, a flapper sensor detects a demand on the system. The volume fill sensor
senses when the hopper is filled with material. These two (2) sensors are wired in series and a
single input of the controller reads them. The controller determines the difference in the
signals, depending on load sequence timing.
In Sight Glass mode, only one single sensor detects demand. This mode has no volume fill
operation, and you’ll need to disable that function. Properly setting the operation mode lets
the controller correctly sequence station loading.
Upon entering the Operation Mode menu, the controller prompts you to set all 12 stations to
Normal (default) mode.
