The Mode Property provides information, how the throughput of the feeder is controlled.
| Name | Value | Description |
| ONLY_CONVEYING | 0 | The throughput is not controlled. The feeder only transports the material (e.g. by screw, conveyor belt) or the material is only falling through a feed opening |
| OTHER | 1 | Throughput is controlled, but in another mode than these below |
| GRAVIMETRIC | 2 | The throughput is controlled by a gravimetric dosing system. |
| VOLUMETRIC | 3 | The throughput is controlled by a volumetric dosing system. |
| LIQUID | 4 | The throughput of liquid material is controlled by a pump. |
| BATCH | 5 | The throughput is controlled by a batch dosing system. Note In this case, each material has an own feeder although there is only one physical system. |
