    VARIABLE TIME SCHEDULE NUMBER CORRECTION OF BEGIN AND END TIME (SLAVE MODE) Correct the actual “Begin” and “End” times (last column): enter a correction under the “Begin” and “End” times (first column) (maximum correction + or - 8:00 h). This may be necessary, for example if the master timer is used for several time processes with the same number of periods.
  • Page 24: Dosage Timer (Water / Feed / Sequential Timers)

    TIME SCHEDULES See “Master timer”. DOSAGE TIMER (WATER / FEED / SEQUENTIAL TIMERS) The timer output of a dosage timer is linked to a counter input. This enables the water and/or feed intake to be limited. If the intake is too low, the controller can generate a “dosage alarm” and stop the dosing of water and/or feed.

    CURVE Vary the water and/or feed amounts, depending on age, using the curve. TIME SCHEDULES For more extensive information about setting the time schedules: master timer, page 22. PROGRAM “Week program”: set that the dosage timer should not be switched on every day, but, for example, on for 6 days and off for 1 day.

  • Page 31: Maintenance And Check Up

    MAINTENANCE AND CHECK UP Regular maintenance and checking of the equipment are essential for its proper operation. Don’t forget to clean the ventilation system when cleaning the houses. ● To minimize the energy consumption, it is important that the fans are clean. This also applies to the flaps, measuring fan and the ventilation tube.
