The EU has set up systems for the separate collection of waste electrical and electronic equipment and batteries (Directive 20212/19/EU). If you do not dispose of the device properly, you risk a fine. Electrical and electronic equipment must be collected separately at the end of its life. KFM-6400-G-EN02160...
Page 6: Multi-Phase Feeding System
The Maximum runtime setting allows you to stop the system once this maximum runtime has expired. This prevents the feed system from being unnecessarily active in the following situations:  empty silo  feed drop tube not straight above feed hopper KFM-6400-G-EN02160...
Page 7: Circular Circuit With Supply Auger
This should first be discharged into the troughs before new feed is added to the circuit (pipe too full). You can omit the Supply auger full indicator in certain situations. Have the circuit run one full cycle after starting and then start filling. KFM-6400-G-EN02160...
Page 8: Circular Circuit In Cascade
If the cascade circuit is too full, the system will stop. The circuit does not see any feed for a while now and again sends a full signal. This means that it cannot be restarted by the Take-over sensor. The supply auger drawn in the cascade circuit is optional. KFM-6400-G-EN02160...

2. After the waiting time for this circuit has elapsed, the silo circuits and the valves programmed for this recipe are started. 3. As soon as the system's full indicator detects that the system is full, the status changes to ready and the next circuit starts. KFM-6400-G-EN02160...

Page 19 The system can be started manually, automatically or via a digital input. After the system is started, changes are only implemented the next day Normally, the KFM-6400 multiphase feeding system will run its program normally. Abnormal situations can occur: faults, no feed component in the silo, etc.

Filling silo active With bulk switch As soon as the bulk switch is operated, the KFM-6400 assumes that silo filling is taking place. Without bulk switch The weight filled is determined automatically. If the silo contents increase by more than 50 kg every 30 seconds, the KFM-6400 assumes that filling is taking place (Filling silo active).

11.3 Communication Switching the communication alarm on / off. A communication alarm can only occur on a KFM-6400 which is set as the main station. If the main station does not receive any data from a device in the same communication loop, a communication alarm will occur.
Page 33 Do not forget to switch the alarm back on, e.g. if it was switched off to resolve a fault. Preferably use the off (alarm temporarily off) function to resolve a fault. Installation errors, such as Output already assigned, Incorrect type of output, Input already assigned etc. must always be resolved before putting the installation into operation.
