During Operation

In the Mixmate system, a Mix is the total job, while an Operation is the specific process of adding an individual product to that mix. An operation for a single product may include prefilling, measuring, and rinsing.

  • Behavior: The component starts at the very beginning of the product's addition (prefill), stays on while the product is being measured, continues running through the rinsing phase, and only shuts off when that specific product's operation is reported complete.

  • Common Use: A rinse pump that pressurizes the inductor; it needs to be running before you start the chemical and stay on until the rinse is finished.

  • Component: Choose CAN bus or Digital, then enter a Component Name* and Scan Module Code*. Digital additionally requires a Port*. If the scanned module is a 3-way valve, you'll also name its two positions with Left Name* and Right Name*.

  • Select Plumbing Input: Choose the specific plumbing that should trigger this component.

  • + Add Plumbing: Tap this to trigger the component from more than one plumbing input. Each gets its own row with a Select Input dropdown and a Component State dropdown (On/Off, or the valve's Left/Right names for a 3-way valve). Use the trash icon to remove a row.
