Load Cell Bracket Four or more load cell brackets allow the BinTrac Breeder Control to accurately measure the feed level in your bins. The Smart Summing Box averages the signals from all brackets to minimize errors that could result from voids (holes) in the feed.
• Communication Wire (4 Cond. 20 – 22 AWG, shielded) Steps to Come There are several steps to install the BinTrac Breeder Control system. To give an overview of the installation process, these steps are outlined below. • Mounting the ‘A’ frame •...
Gain-In-Weight (Load Batch Method) The BinTrac Breeder Control System allows the user to select the amount of feed required for the day. The BinTrac Breeder Control System controls a conveying system to deliver feed from the Fill Bin to the Weigh Bin. The Weigh Bin weighs the feed delivered and the BinTrac Breeder Control System stops the delivery when the required amount of feed has been delivered to the Weigh Bin.
The Loss-In-Weight (Unload Batch Method) allows the user to select the target batch amount of feed required for the day. The BinTrac Breeder Control System will enable the hopper or feed line fill system allowing the feed line system to transfer the feed into the house until the required amount of feed has been delivered. In this configuration, this system batches and unloads until the batch target amount is unloaded from the bin.
Installation Manual Weigh Bin with Dual Breeder Consoles for Programmed Fill and Batch Configuration This configuration provides automated filling and batching of Hen feed using a weigh bin. A Remote Breeder Console provides automated filling of a programmed gross weight amount into a weigh bin. A Master Breeder Console provides automated loss-in-weight batching of a programmed amount for the Hen feeding.
Installation Manual Installation Mount the Bracket Assembly 1. Remove all bolts connecting the leg to the footpad. Loosen the original anchor bolt but leave it intact at the bottom of the footpad. The footpad can and should be removed if it is binding or interfering with lifting the leg.
Installation Manual Figure 4: Lift until there is a 1/2" (+/- 1/8”) gap. Figure 5: Leave 1/4” (+/- 1/8”) gap between C- channel and bracket. Repeat Steps 1 – 13 for all bin legs. After completing steps 1-13 for each leg (and before continuing to step 14), re-examine each leg to ensure proper clearances as noted and adjust as needed.
Figure 8: Connect wires following the above chart. 25. Run the communication wire to the next SSB or to the BinTrac Breeder Control. 26. Tighten every strain-relief (“dome nut”) on the box. First, tighten the nuts to attach the strain reliefs to the box.
Control unit. 30. Once the cable is routed from the Power Supply to the BinTrac Breeder Control and has been tied up out of the way, cut off any excess cable and connect into Breeder Control unit as shown below.
A Remote Display is a BinTrac Indicator (BT200 / BT260) programmed as a Remote Display which displays the same weight data as the local BinTrac Breeder Control. The Remote Display receives all its settings (with the exception of enabled bins) from the Master BinTrac Breeder Control. Calibration and Zero must be done on the Master BinTrac Breeder Control.
Control Indicator. Calibration and Zero must be done on the Master Indicator. Follow the wiring steps below to wire up as a Remote Display. Connect the wiring between the Remote Display and the Master BinTrac Breeder Control Indicator. Power is typically supplied to the Remote Display from the Master BinTrac Breeder Control Indicator.
