On Time

Off Time

Reverse Delay

ZSS Off Delay

On Time
This is the time, in seconds, that the drag chain will run if set for "Timed"
operation ( see Main Menu > Advanced Setup > Feeder Peripherals > Drag
Chain > Settings).
Off Time
This is the time, in seconds, that the drag chain will be off if set for "Timed"
operation ( see Main Menu > Advanced Setup > Feeder Peripherals > Drag
Chain > Settings).
Reverse Delay
This is the time, in seconds, that the controller will wait after the drag chain
has run forward, before allowing the user to run it in reverse (from the User
Interface).
ZSS Off Delay
This parameter sets the time, in seconds, that the controller will wait after the
proximity (or other) switch is triggered. If the switch is not triggered again
within this wait period, the drag chain will be assumed to have jammed and
the appropriate output will be set.
Note: This parameter will not be visible unless the setting "Has Zero Spd Sw"
is enabled ( see Main Menu > Advanced Setup > Feeder Peripherals > Drag
Chain > Settings).

Infeed Flow Monitor

Infeed Flow Monitor refers to a device installed above the feeder, generally in a
downspout, that monitors the flow of material and indicates when flow has
stopped. Generally if the feeder is running and flow above the feeder stops, this is
an indication of a blockage, and in certain situations this can be very dangerous as
it may eliminate the seal between the feeder and the silo above, if the downspout
is allowed to completely empty.
