Control Power Switch
On/Off, lighted pushbutton located below the keypad that controls electrical power to the
Touch Screen controls. Using this switch during operation halts the machine in mid-cycle. It
should only be used in emergencies. The Touch Screen control panel draws very little power
when not in production, and turning the controller off at the end of a shift or day may be
potentially more damaging than any savings offered by turning electrical power off.
Power Indicator
A green lamp that lights to indicate that control power is available.

Reset Switch
Pressing the black RESET BUTTON will restore power to the system after an EMERGENCY
STOP situation. It also brings all devices to their “home” position, and prepares the machine
to enter “run” mode.
All major machine setup, production, and testing are performed using the Touch Screen
panel on the Control Panel. This screen provides simple, direct selection of all operations,
control settings, and production data display. This section provides a description of the dif-
ferent screens and selections available, as well as a sample exercise to practice using the
controls.

2. Product cutoff devices that can be installed at the funnel of the filler can be controlled
using the CUTOFF CONTROL selection. Types of cutoff devices used will vary with
design, product characteristics, and other accessories used at the filler. The following
types of cutoff control are available.
None – No Cutoff control required.
By Time – Specifies a period of time for the cutoff to open and close. The actual time is
specified in the OPEN TIME and CLOSE TIME entries.
Limit Switch – Specifies a period of time to delay the closing of the cutoff. The limit
switch determines cutoff opening and filling. The opening time is not selectable in this
mode.
Open Time – Specifies the amount of time that it takes to fully open the cutoff, prior to
the start of the fill. Entries can be made in this window only if cutoff control has been
selected as “Time.”
Close Time – Specifies the amount of time (delay) that it takes to fully close the cutoff,
after the fill is completed, can be specified. Entries can be made in this window when
cutoff control has been selected as either “Time” or “Limit Switch.”
3. Press DELAY AFTER FILL to coordinate operation of the auger filler with other
equipment, or to allow product to settle and distribute into a container.
4. When entries are complete, record settings on the Run Program Worksheet (see

infeed equipment. The following selections are available.
Model B-SV-600 Touch Screen Control Panel Users Manual
14
AFI Publication 1240410 • Issue: 1 • April 2010
1. Use LEVEL CONTROL to specify operation of the Level Control switch installed in the
hopper cover at the filler. It can be selected as “On” or “Off.” When entered as “On” a
signal is generated indicating a low level condition exists. When selected as “On,” the
Pause Delay and Low Level Agitation selections (see following) can be further used to
specify low level control.
2. The PAUSE DELAY key provides a delay to occur between detection of a low level
condition in the hopper and a system pause. This selection can be used to allow infeed
equipment to deliver product to the hopper without excessive “pausing” of production.
3. The LOW LEVEL AGITATION key allows the product agitator blade in the hopper to
operate at low product levels to ensure that product is fed into flights of the auger before
re-supply occurs. When selected as “On,” slow speed agitation operates despite the set-
ting in the “Auger and Agitation“ setup menu.
4. INFEED CONTROL selects the type of signal used to actuate external product infeed
equipment. Selections are available for Pulse, Continuous, or None. When selected as
“Pulse,” pulse width can be defined using the On/Off Time entries. Infeed Control entries
will depend upon the type and wiring of external product infeed equipment used. You
may need to refer to wiring information of this external equipment to determine the cor-
rect entry.
5. The ON/OFF TIME selection specifies pulse width of external equipment used for
product re-supply.
6. When entries are complete, record settings on the Run Program Worksheet (see
“Appendix”).

Use the following as a guideline for starting and running filling production with the B-SV-600
