TEMPERATURE CURVE
The user can define a temperature curve to adjust the set point auto-
matically over a given time period.
A curve is defined using up to 10 points. Each point specifies a day
number and a set point for that day. The herd age value defines the
current day number used by the curve. Once the points of the curve are
defined, the curve must be activated. The controller will change the
temperature set point every hour in a linear fashion between consecutive
points of the curve. When the last point of the curve is reached, the
temperature set point for that day is maintained until the herd age is
adjusted for starting a new herd or the set point is adjusted manually.
NOTES :
i) All ten points of the curve must be specified. If ten points are not
needed, repeat the last temperature value for each unnecessary point.
ii) Certain restrictions apply to reduce the risk of errors:
- The highest possible day number is 250.
- Decreasing day numbers are not allowed.
- Increasing temperatures are not allowed.
