John Bean BFH 1000 Operators Manual
6.3 SCAN MODE SELECTION
The BFH 1000 can be operated in 2 automatic scan modes and one manual mode. Default factory setting
is the OPTIMA mode. The BFH 1000 can easily be set to PROFILING mode if OPTIMA functionality is
not required or wanted for every balance job. To access PROFILING OR OPTIMA modes, depress the
F6 key for approximately 3 seconds. The mode will change with each depression. Pressing the F6 key
momentarily activates the OPTIMA procedure.
PROFILING mode is used when wheels only need to be balanced and the operator does not want to
monitor the ride performance of the wheel and includes:
- Rim profiling to get rim data including ALU wheel weight position
- Spoke count when ALU mode is detected
- Balancing
The PROFILING mode is indicated by the following symbol that is visible in informa-
tion box 3 in the left upper corner of the screen.
