2 FUNCTION KEYS (GRAPHIC, ALARM, PREVIOUS / NEXT CONTROL ETC.)

Function key F1 (language)

Function key F2 (house

status)

Function key F3 (graphic)

Changing language:

Call up house status

Place graph:

Hold down F1 and press on the left

or right cursor key.

The “graph” function is active when

the LED

in the function key lights.

You can switch off the “graph”

function by pressing the function key

again (the LED in the key is off then).

The values in a graph are linked to the window on the basis of which the graph was drawn up. The graph is

updated automatically when you change the details in the window. f the details in the window are displayed in

graph form, the symbol will be displayed in the top right corner of the menu line.

Select previous / next control

Use these buttons to select the previous or the next control, if there are any controls of the

same type, such as ventilation groups (left, right, recirculation, etc.).

Alarm key (switching the main alarm on and off)

Hot key for alarm screen. The LED in the alarm key lights if there is an alarm on one of the controls.

When the main alarm is switch off, the LED in the alarm key will flash. No alarm is generated anymore.

If no access code has been installed or

if you have already entered the correct

access code, you can switch

off the

main alarm.

Test (alarm test)

Test “yes”: This enables you to test the operation of the alarm relay

(siren). If you enter "yes" in the line Test, the alarm relay (siren) will

be switched on for 10 seconds.

You can clear the alarm test time by setting "no" in the line Test.

(alarm temporary off)

Off “yes”:This enables you to temporarily switch off the alarm

(siren). This does not apply to the hardware alarms which cannot be

switched off temporarily. The main alarm is switched off for 30

minutes (the lamp will blink irregularly). The main alarm is switched

on automatically again after 30 minutes. The alarm relay will then de-

energize again, causing an alarm, if the cause of the alarm has not

been removed.

You can clear the temporary alarm

deactivation time by setting "no" in

the line .

Attention:

NEVER FORGET TO SWITCH THE ALARM BACK "ON" when you have switched this feature off

'temporarily', e.g. to solve a problem. Failing to switch it back on may have adverse effects for

humans, animals, equipment or property.

Preferably use the (alarm retard) function to solve a problem.

MAIN MENU

If you use access codes, it is advisable to

write the code down and store it

somewhere safe. If you forget the access code, you can no longer change

any settings.

As soon as one access code is active, you can only change the setting by

entering the correct access code.

The access code remains act

ive until you select the “Overview” window.

After selecting this window you will have to enter the access code again to

be able to change a setting.

ACCESS CODE

You can use an access code to protect your computer against unauthorized access. If you want to prevent non-

authorized users from changing settings on your poultry computer, you can have an access code set.

An access code consists of a combination of 4 figures. You can have an maximum of 2 access codes set by your

installer.

For the status screen (see page 27), it is possible to set a separate access code.

CLIMATE CONTROLS

HOUSE STATUS

You can put the house in use or

not in use, using the house status.

In use

The poultry computer carries out its control operation

in accordance with the settings.

Not in use

All control, alarm and temperature monitoring functions

are switched off (all flaps are closed, all timers are

switched off).

Use the

left / right cursor keys ( ) to change the house status.

HOUSE TEMPERATURE

House temperature: the temperature at which the ventilation groups and heaters are controlled on (relative

temperature setting).

If the cursor is placed on Growth curve temperature and you push the confirmation key the curve for the

settings concerned will be displayed. You may change the curve settings or switch off the curve. Press the

cancel key to return to the previous window. If you have switched off the curve, the text 'growth curve' will be

replaced by the standard text and you can no longer access the relevant curve settings from this window (the

curve is off).

RELATIVE OR ABSOLUTE TEMPERATURE SETTING

Control Relative setting Absolute setting

Main ventilation group

Always relative to temperature in

the house

n.a.

Aux. ventilation group

Always relative to temperature in

the house

n.a.

Manure belt: Intake fan

If the setting is between -9.9°C and

+9.9°C, the setting is relative to the

house temperature

If a value equal to or higher than

10.0°C is set, this will be an absolute

temperature setting.

Manure belt: Heater block

Always relative to temperature in

the house

n.a.

Ventilation groups

Always relative to temperature in

the house

n.a.

Heating 1..6

If the setting is between -9.9°C and

+9.9°C, the setting is relative to the

house temperature

If a value equal to or higher than

10.0°C is set, this will be an absolute

temperature setting.

Central heating 1 and 2

n.a.

These are always absolute

temperature settings.

Cooling

If the setting is between -9.9°C and

+9.9°C, the setting is relative to the

house temperature.

If a value equal to or higher than

10.0°C is set, this will be an absolute

temperature setting.

Temperature 1..4

You can indicate to your installer whether you want the temperature control

to use relative or absolute temperature settings.

Relative

The temperature control works with a differential temperature compared to the preset house

temperature. The temperature control is based on the preset house temperature. E.g. if you set a

differential temperature of 5.0°C and the preset house temperature is 20.0°C, the temperature

control will work as follows: 20.0°C+5.0°C = 25.0°

C. If you now change the house temperature to

18.0°C, the temperature control will change the temperature as follows: 18.0°C+5.0°C = 23.0°C.

Absolute

The temperature control works with absolute temperature settings. E.g. if you set the temperature

to 5.0°C, the output control operation will also be based on 5.0°

C. The temperature control works

independently of the preset house temperature.
