DOL 635 includes complete production functionality, while DOL 634 includes the basic production features such as light, water and 24-hour clock. A combination of climate and production functionality can be achieved by combining DOL 634 and DOL 635 system software. This controller is called DOL 639.
DOL 635 • DOL 639 2 Procedure This technical manual deals with the installation of the controller and and is aimed primarily at the technicians and electricians who will be mounting, installing and testing the controller. The installation must be carried out by expert personnel and according to current national and in Europe also EU regulations.

DOL 635 • DOL 639 Different types of feed may be fed to the two feed lines in systems with two feed lines and a feed distribution shutter located below the feed weigher. The feed is delivered to feed line one or feed line two, according to the position of the shutter.
DOL 635 • DOL 639 4 Connecting components The main part of the connection terminals is universal. Different components can therefore be installed using the individual terminals. When you select a component from the menu Technical | Setup | Instal- lation the house controller allocates I/O on the basis of a list.
