DR I think you may confuse him with one ninth.
It's simple, you have a flow rate of 12,500 per hour & 80 or 90 % large (no need to enter the rest as the total is always 100%) i.e. 100% = 12,500 lb/hr
So the operator enters the large peanut percent i.e. 90 the PLC does the maths
90% of 12,500 is 11,250 so that is the set point for large peanuts.
Sub the 11,250 from the total = 1,250 so that is the small peanuts.
There is no need for the operator to enter the small peanut as it could be automatically displayed as 100 - large peanut percent = small peanut percent just for display purposes.
On the operator display for the settings:
Production Rate: [12,500] lb/hr Operator entry
Actual production Rate: [12,467] lb/hr
Large Peanut %: [90%] Operator Entry Large: [11,224] lb/hr
Small Peanut %: [10%] Automatically calculated Small:[1276] lb/hr
Ignore the sums do not add up perfectly, just could not be A$$$D to calculate it, but you get the idea.
