Minimum Vent Curve Settings
1. Select the Main menu button.
2. Select the Curves Button.
3. Select the Min Vent button.
There are several terms that need to be defined in order to understand the Minimum Ventilation Curve
Screen.
4. A "curve" is a listing of up to
10 points in time (bend points)
that defines how you want a
parameter to automatically
vary as the animals grow. By
turning the curve "on" the
Control will follow the curve
settings .
5. Curve Value - This indicates
the current value(s) of the
specified curve.
6. The Bend Points (BPs) - are
points on the curve that define
the curve. The curve values are
adjusted between the Bend
Points. The bend point values are the exact values at midnight of the day # of each Bend Point. The
curve takes over when you turn the curve "on" and the day number is equal to or greater than the
day number assigned to BP #1.
7. Day - The intention is that the day # is age of the animals. Negative days (down to - 7) are allowed
if it is desired to preheat the house, for example, prior to the arrival of the animals. The day # of a
BP can also be negative, if desired. Changing the day # in any screen that shows the day number,
will change the day # in all the other screens that show the day #.
8. On and Off columns - are the Min. Vent. time for a specific bend point
9. The graphs on the right side of the Minimum Ventilation Curve screen shows the progress of the
curve. The dashed line indicated the current day number of the curve.
