Temptron 616 User's Manual Installation Open the front panel Connect the Temptron 616 to the wall in a dry place approximately 1 meter away from the electrical cabinet. Analog Input Connections Temperature sensors Input 1 is used for inside temperature sensor 1. Use a two wire cable. Connect one wire to analog input 1 and the second wire to the GND input.
Temptron 616 User's Manual Digital Inputs Input 1 is used for the dry contact signal coming from the inlet motor each times it moves. Use a two wire cable. Connect one wire to Digital Input 1 and the second wire to 0(zero).
Temptron 616 User's Manual Relay Connections Connect the relay outputs to the various systems. Connect to the C (common) and NC or NO according to your needs. All outputs are dry contacts, maximum 2 Amp/220V NO/NC. See diagram 4 The light dimmer option is not included in this model.

Lock Code It is possible to enter a 4-digit code, which will lock the Temptron 616 to prevent unauthorized personnel form making changes in the unit. It is possible to see all the information in the unit, but not possible to make any changes.
Temptron 616 User's Manual Glossary of terms Minimum ventilation Minimum ventilation mode is the ventilation mode that is used by the controller to supply the minimum amount of air needed per kilo per hour. The fans and the amount of air that they supply are set up in functions 8-13. Normally these are cross ventilation fans and they are running together with the inlets to create a required static pressure in the house.
Temptron 616 User's Manual Index The minimum ventilation calculation uses the Minimum ventilation Air 1, 2, 3 and Minimum ventilation 1, 2 and 3 to help calculate the needed minimum air for the house. Each minimum ventilation air and minimum ventilation function is also called an "Index".

Temptron 616 User's Manual 16. Minimum ventilation out temperature This is an outside temperature setting. This is used tohelp calculate the minimum amount of air per kilo per hour to be given during minimum ventilation. This value is used by the "Minimum air per kilo" high and low functions (14-15).

Temptron 616 User's Manual As long as the average inside temperature is less than 26° (required plus fan G1) and the outside temperature is less than 50° the unit will run a minimum ventilation cycle mode. The control unit will calculate which "Index" is needed to supply the 6250 cmh.

Temptron 616 User's Manual 29. Tunnel Cold Temperature Enter here a value that represents an outside temperature. If the units goes into the tunnel ventilation mode and the outside temperature is less than this temperature, the unit will go into Cold tunnel ventilation mode. In this mode the unit will not open the cooling curtain for tunnel ventilation but will continue to use the inlets.

Temptron 616 User's Manual 35. Out Temperature Pressure (ABS) Enter here value that represents an outside temperature. This is the outside temperature marker. If the outside temperature is above the temperature set here the requested static pressure will be the value set in function 33. If the outside temperature is below the temperature set here, the requested static pressure will be the value set in function 34.

(84). 59. Water Meter If a water measuring clock has been connected to the Temptron 616 then in this function will be displayed the amount of water consumed over a 24 hour period. This 24 hour time period is from Reset time to Reset time (84).
Temptron 616 User's Manual If the feed auger runs for 10 minutes then the Temptron will assume that 250 kilogram of feed was consumed. Since different types of feed will cause a change in the amount of feed, this is only an approximant calculation of consumed feed.
Weight (73). 84. Reset Time The Temptron 616 collects all its information on a 24 hours basis. It is possible to set the reset time. The grow day also changes after this time is passed. All information, temperature, humidity, water count and feed consumption will reset at this time.
Number of sensors for average. Enter here up to 4 sensors that are to be used for calculating the average temperature. 91.Net Name It is possible to connect the Temptron 616 to a PC computer with the help of the "ChickPro" software package. Each unit needs a net name. 92. Digital Input reading: This is a display of the current digital input in use.
