Setup and Calibration - continued
All setups are performed in the Edit Mode with the use of the
Navigation Buttons to move you around to editable positions and the
(+) and (–) buttons to make changes and to answer questions.
1. House # - this is where you identify the house (barn) that the control is being
setup.This is important when a PC is part of your system.
2. Temperature Units - choose between Fahrenheit or Celsius temperature
readings.
3. Units of Measurement - metric or nonmetric
4. Clock Type - if you want to have time of day represented in a 12 hour clock (a.m.
and p.m.), or a 24 hour clock format.
5. House Equipped For - answer the following questions by choosing "yes" or
"no". These answers will configure your house and inform the control what it has
to do. For instance, if you answer "no" to natural, then all references to natural
ventilation will be removed from the screens. If your management practices and
equipment is changed in the future, you can always reinstate natural by changing
the "no" to "yes".
6. Curtain Speeds - if you have answered "yes" to natural, then you will have to
tell the control the curtain speed(s). To do so, with the open switch, time how
long it takes for the curtain to travel 18 inches. Insert this number by using the
Edit buttons. Repeat the same steps if you have a separate control for your
number 2 main curtain, or tunnel curtain.
The actual curtain opening will be the movement less the full closed
curtain overlap.
7. Curtain Movement - now that your main curtain speed(s) are entered, you can
choose where you want your first curtain opening movement, and you can adjust
what you want the full opening movement to be. This is done by simply inserting
the number of inches you have chosen.
8. Number of Fans - insert the minimum number of fans you want to operate while
in the tunnel mode (available only on Model 16).
9. Water Meter Calibration - enter the volume of water represented by each
electrical signal received from your water meter (if used).
From this point on, we recommend that you use the accompanying
house diagram to layout the equipment and assign them numbers.
This will coincide with how these devices are wired into the relay
panel.
