Description of Calibration Values

Two Position Gate
The Two Position Gate menu item allows you to enable gate checking for your
granular materials. The default value is Disabled. If enabled, you will be able to
select the gate position for each granular material. Two Position Gate uses Input
1 for the low gate sensor and input 2 for the high gate sensor. They will not be
usable for other features if this is enabled.
Aug Fwd
The Auger Forward submenu contains settings for normal operation of the auger.
Min DC
The Min DC menu item sets the duty cycle required to turn the auger at its
slowest rate. Min DC is used in closed, open, manual, and unload modes, and
should be configured as accurately as possible. The default value is 20%.
Use the green Standby knob to test the auger speed when adjusting the Min DC
value. If a cross auger has its parent function set to Auger Forward it will run at
max. If both cross augers have its parent function set to Auger Forward, then
whichever was last selected on the operation screen will run at max (and the
other will stay off). The current Auger RPM will be shown on the screen to assist
with adjustments.
Max DC
The Max DC menu item sets the duty cycle required to turn the auger at its
fastest rate. Max DC is used in closed, open, manual, and unload modes, and
should be configured as accurately as possible. The default value is 75%.
Use the green Standby knob to test the auger speed when adjusting the Max DC
value. If a cross auger has its parent function set to Auger Forward it will run at
max. If both cross augers have its parent function set to Auger Forward, then
whichever was last selected on the operation screen will run at max (and the
other will stay off). The current Auger RPM will be shown on the screen to assist
with adjustments.
Aug Rev
The Auger Reverse submenu contains settings for the auger during Auger Reverse
mode. None of the settings in this submenu have any effect if Auger Reverse is disabled.
The Aug Rev button and submenu is disabled in 5150 systems and if the Auger Reverse
Valve Type is set to None or Selector. When the Auger Reverse Valve Type is set to
Selector, the Auger Forward min and max DC will be used for both Auger Forward and
Auger Reverse output.
Min DC
The Min DC menu item sets the duty cycle required to turn the auger at its
slowest rate. Min DC is used in closed, open, manual, and unload modes when
Auger Reverse is active and should be configured as accurately as possible. The
default value is 20%.
Use the green Standby knob to test the auger speed when adjusting the Min DC
value. If a cross auger has its parent function set to Auger Reverse it will run at
max. If both cross augers have its parent function set to Auger Reverse, then
whichever was last selected on the operation screen will run at max (and the
other will stay off). The current Auger RPM will be shown on the screen to assist
with adjustments.
