GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Batch plant control panel, controls the whole system and is the main unit which has
two different running modes as manuel and automatic.
The controlling of the whole system is made by the control panel So keeping this
panel healty is an important point. This can be obtained by supplying a clean&stable
energy and earthing. If supplied voltage or earthing not healty, user may have problems
and may not use the system. To prevent this, user has to control the supplied voltage
stability and earthing periodically.
Pls do not setup any other softwares to the computer which is running the “Batch Plant
Control Software”. Any other sofware or viruses may harm your PC or Operating
System.
Control panel has two running modes as manuel and automatic. The operator can
choose the required one.
Control Panel Electrical Characteristic

CONTROL PANEL
WARNINGS : THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The loadcell‟s over the weighing platform, weighing indicators inside of the control
panel, PLC and the computer system is highly sensitive equipments to the current
leakages. So, user has to control the supplied voltage stability and earthing periodically.
Before a welding operation on the concrete plant‟s body, all main switches should be
shut off. The cables between the loadcells and indicators should be taken off. Chassis
cable for the welding, must be placed near the place where will be welded.
When the system energized at the first time, operator has to wait for 2-3 minutes to let
system components warm&run correctly.
The equipments which connected to the computer and PLC (printer, monitor,
weighing indicators, etc.) must be grounded same reference.
Pls do not setup any other softwares to the computer which is running the “Batch Plant
Control Software”. Any other sofware or viruses may harm your PC or Operating
System.
If any thermal switch trips, the light over the atteched motor blinks and warns the
operator. Operator panel and PC Program warns the operator too.
