Part Number MAN-000009
Zero Value
Sets the weight of the empty bin in either pounds or kilograms. Convenient when wanting to calibrate a system when
a small amount of feed is already in the bin. The zero value is used to compensate for the empty weight of the bin to
give an accurate value for the net weight of the material inside the bin. The Breeder Control calculates the material
weight as the total weight less the zero (empty) weight value.
Example: A bin weighs 1200 pounds empty. In standard operation mode, simply press and hold on both the
and keys until displays. This would then set the zero value in the SETUP mode to 1200.
Segmented display:
13. Press the SELECT key. The current zero value is shown. If zeroed in standard operation mode, simply record
this value for future reference. If you need to adjust this value, use the and keys until the desired value
for an empty bin is shown.
14. Press the SELECT key and is displayed.
15. Press the key three times until is displayed.
Hour
Sets the current hour in 24-hour (military) format. The default hour is set to CST and should be adjusted, if necessary,
for your time zone.
Segmented display:
16. Press the SELECT key and the current hour is displayed. Use the and keys to enter the proper hour in
24-hour format.
17. Once the proper value is displayed, press SELECT and is displayed.
18. Press the key four times until is displayed.
