NOTE: Install the enclosures (EDGE Main Controller, 3-Slot Expansion Box, 6-Slot Expansion Box) with the hinges on the left hand side when facing the enclosure. NOTE: AP/Cumberland recommends this kind of screw: Flange Head Lag Screw for Wood, Hot-Dipped Galvanized Steel, 1/4" Diameter, 2" Long.
Page 29 Chapter 2: Basic connections Installation must only be performed by qualified service personnel. WARNING Wear appropriate grounding devices such as an anti-static wristband to service the system. WARNING Lock the enclosure once the wiring is completed or when servicing. Use the included nut and bolt or a padlock (not included) to lock the enclosure.
Page 30: Installing The Plug-In Relays
Chapter 2: Basic connections 6. Make all the necessary wiring connections to the plug-in module. 7. Reconnect the main supply voltage, and ensure all equipment turns on correctly. For the terminal blocks connected on the power relays, use a tightening torque from 0.7N*m (6.2lbf*in) to 0.8N*m (7lbf*in) to fasten a wire gage from 10AWG to NOTICE 14AWG.
Page 31: Dc Network And Power Supply Redundancy
Chapter 2: Basic connections 5. When the plug-in relay is correctly aligned, apply pressure on the middle part of the plug-in relay until it is locked in place. 6. Wire the new plug-in relay. 7.

For the terminal blocks connected on the power relays, use a tightening torque NOTICE from 0.7N*m (6.2lbf*in) to 0.8N*m (7lbf*in) to fasten a wire gage from 10AWG to...
Page 32 At both ends of network, the End-of-Line must be activated. If the wiring can’t be done in a single chain, you might need to deactivate the end-of-line (EOL) resistor to improve com- munication. AP/Cumberland does not warranty the proper operation if the topology network is not daisy chain.
Page 33: Connecting The Alarm Relay
Chapter 2: Basic connections Connecting the alarm relay 1. Locate the ALARM terminals on the EDGE Main Controller. 2. Connect the voltage source wire needed to switch in the terminal block named ALARM – COM. 3. Connect one load from the Alarm output: terminal ALARM - NO or terminal ALARM – NC. 4.
Page 34: Connecting An Analog Input
Chapter 2: Basic connections IMPORTANT: The maximum voltage on the relay outputs is 24 VDC with a maximum current of 1.5 The minimum permissible load on the relay outputs is 0.1A. Refer to the local building code to determine the type and quality of cable required. If a siren is used, the siren output must not exceed 120 decibels.
Page 35: Connecting A Variable 0-10 Vdc Output
Chapter 2: Basic connections Connecting a variable 0-10 VDC output The terminals used for 0-10 VDC outputs are named VAR (x) on the plug-in module. 0-10 VDC output returns are named GND (x) for outputs VAR (x). The maximum current of each 0-10 VDC output is 20 mA.
Page 36: Connecting The Power Supply
The Off or Stop and On position must be clearly identified on the sectioning device. AP/Cumberland recommends using a DPST disconnecting switch in series with a breaker. In the case of the use of a SPST disconnecting switch, connect the SPST disconnecting switch to cut the hot line with a neutral circuit case.

Chapter 10: House/barn setup Power ventilation setup You must have completed equipment configuration before Power ventilation setup. Setting up the ventila- tion allows you to adapt the configured equipment to the building design, and to the animal requirements. Once the Power ventilation setup is complete, the ventilation system has to be built with defined number of fans and stages.
Page 96 Chapter 10: House/barn setup Table 10-7 CFM ventilation operation (cont'd.) Absolute minimum fan capacity (15sec/cycle time) is calculated WARNING using cycle time. When changing the cycle time you must check to see if it changes any fan minimum capacities in the ventilation grid.
Page 97 Chapter 10: House/barn setup Table 10-8 CFM per head ventilation operation (cont'd.) Night ventilation reduction You can reduce minimum ventilation at night. Night reduction directly affects the minimum ventilation refer- ence value either in cfm or cfm/head. It works the same way with manual and auto (curve) minimum ventilation levels.

Also, if you want the ventilation response to temperature to be calculated by the EDGE Calculate Temperatures process, press on it after changes to the grid to refresh stage tempera- ture settings.
Page 104 Chapter 10: House/barn setup Minimum ventilation change can be induced by one of the following: • Animal growth when using an age ventilation curve • Animal population change when using CFM per head ventilation • When the minimum ventilation is corrected (for an adjustable period of time) in the ventilation page. This is a temporary change which needs a return to exact original settings after the timer expires.

When fans are used in rotation, their minimum and maximum capacity for the stage must be identical. Changing the minimum or maximum capacity on one fan group affects the other fans used in rotation in the stage This rule applies to both variable and On/Off fans.
Page 115 Chapter 12: Ventilation operation Relative humidity compensation in Power ventilation In Power ventilation, a ventilation increase is applied to current minimum ventilation air volume in the operation ventilation page. Since the air volume can come from a curve, the effect of relative humidity compensation may vary in time.
Page 116: Natural Ventilation: How It Works
Chapter 12: Ventilation operation Natural ventilation: How it works Natural ventilation is one of the three ventilation modes supported by EDGE. It allows outside atmos- pheric conditions to circulate the air in the barn in a natural unimpeded way. Natural ventilation stage Natural ventilation is considered as one ventilation stage.
Page 117 Chapter 12: Ventilation operation NOTE: Natural stage start, stop, and maximum temperature can be edited in the ventilation grid, accessi- ble through any ventilation mode setup page. They are reference temperatures and each inlet can be adjusted according to these temperatures in the ventilation grid. The Natural inlet offset is a parameter that relates an inlet to the Natural stage setting.
Page 118 Chapter 12: Ventilation operation Figure 12-3 Natural inlet settings in relation to Power ventilation settings and Natural stage settings Natural ventilation logic Natural inlets are closed in all ventilation modes except for Natural ventilation. In Natural ventilation, each inlet opens and closes according to its assigned probes, inlet stage settings, and its offset. Inlets start to open (at minimum opening) when the average temperature of the assigned probe reaches the start tem- perature + Natural offset + inlet offset.
Page 119: Tunnel Ventilation: How It Works
Chapter 12: Ventilation operation that Natural ventilation is disabled at this age. the Natural ventilation curves are part of a larger tempera- ture setting program that can also integrate Power and Tunnel curve settings. Transition from Power to Natural ventilation System is considered in Power ventilation until all inlet whisker switches have validated opening for Natu- ral ventilation and/or all Natural Mode At positions have been reached.
Page 120 Chapter 12: Ventilation operation Tunnel stages, fans and inlet sequence Tunnel ventilation behaves like Power ventilation using single capacity stages except when going into Tunnel or moving to an upper Tunnel stage, Tunnel inlets are moved first, and when 50% of the opening for that stage is reached, the fans start.
Page 121: Stir Fans: How It Works
Chapter 12: Ventilation operation Transition from Natural to Tunnel When the controller is in Natural ventilation mode, and the house/barn temperature is above Set Point + Power Bandwidth + Natural Offset + Natural Bandwidth + Tunnel offset, and all outside temperature and age conditions are met, but the temperature is still rising, all conditions are met to transition from Natural to Tunnel.
Page 122 Chapter 12: Ventilation operation Fixed capacity stir fans in delta mode When using fans in Full on or single capacity stir fans, the fan starts when its measured delta is higher than the Start delta and stops when its measured delta drops below Stop delta. Start and stop delta are assigned for each stage in the ventilation grid.
Page 123: Inlets: How It Works
Chapter 12: Ventilation operation Inlets: how it works Three types of air inlets are available: ceiling inlets, sidewall inlets and Tunnel inlets. An inlet is composed of at least one opening, an actuator, and a feedback device. Inlet position reset Inlet reset allows synchronizing cumulated opening time and actual opening.
