......................................................................................................................................................FEEDER information display
The area of the Main Operating Screen devoted to the display of those parameters relating to the feeder outputs is shown
in Figure 0.3.
Information in this display area is arranged in rows and columns. Each row corresponds to a different feeder. Each data
column corresponds to a different measurement or calculated value.
NOTE: The number of different feeders (rows) and their descriptors may be different from the example shown.
Column one shows the feeder output rate. Column two displays the aggregate blend calculated so as to total 100 percent
aggregate (NOT 100 percent mix). Column three shows the user entered values of moisture for each aggregate.
If feeder no flow sensors are used and a no flow condition does occur, the rate indication for the affected feeder will flash,
an error will be annunciated at the bottom of the screen and the ’horn’ will beep. The error can be acknowledged by hitting
the ’0’ key. This will silence the horn and the rate display will stop flashing and will be shown in inverse until the no flow
problem is remedied.
The bottom line of this display area shows the current target values. The target aggregate dTPH is shown in column one
followed by the target mix number. These targets are the current rates and blends being proportioned by the feeders and
during a target change may be different from those at the point of asphalt addition as shown in the MIX information display
area.
