Auger Filler with Inputs to Adjust the Fill Amount
Incremental indexes are used to squirt a specified amount of food product into a box. Inputs are
used to adjust the index distance. It would be much simpler to adjust the index distance with an
OIT-3165 operator interface panel, but inputs could be used as described below.

ModuleOutput.4=OFF
Do While (TRUE) ‘Repeat until the program is halted
If (ModuleInput.2=ON) Then ‘Fill a box if the “Go” input is on.

‘ModuleOutput.3 is used to make sure that the distance is
‘incremented only once each time ModuleInput.3 is pressed.
