programmer has started the engine. This spot does
not appear if the engine has been started without
using the programmer.
This count can start again at 0 using the
“configuration - code 3”.
7.3. PROGRAMMING (Px)
The desired values for every one of the five
possible programmes are entered at Programming.
The programming is divided into five options in the
main menu: P1, P2, P3, P4 and P5. Choose the option
according to the programme to be acceded. There are
the same sections within each section.
Table 6. Programming option sections
CODE FUNCTION
P1
How often it activates.
P2
Days left until the following activation.
P3
Starting time.
P4
Activation time of the first sector.
P5
Activation time of the second sector.
Press the “C” key to go from one section to
another. Press the “+” and “-” keys to modify values.
Press the “C” and “+” key at the same time to go
back to the Main Menu.
- Code P1: The activation frequency is to be entered
in days, that is to say, the number of days this
programme has to be activated. If number 1 is
entered, the programme will be activated every
day, if number 2 is entered, it will be activated one
day yes, one day no, etc. The maximum is 15 days.
If a 0 is entered the programme will never be
activated automatically.
Example 3.- Programming screen
P 1 0 3
- Code P2: To change the days that are left before
the programme is activated. For example, if it is to
be activated every 7 days, but we want it to activate
tomorrow, a 1 is to be entered, which means that
there one day left for it to activate. With a 0, the
programme is activated on the current day. This is
the only section which is updated by the unit every
day.
- Code P3: The time of the day when the programme
is to start working is indicated here, in hours and
minutes. When the programmer clock reaches this
time, the programme will be activated, starting the
engine if it is not working in this moment. If the
engine is working, it would mean that a programme
has not finished yet or a sector has been activated
manually. Whatever the problem is, the new
programme is the one which is taken into account,
not paying any attention to the previous one. The
00:00 starting time is not valid.
- Code P4: The duration, in hours and minutes, of
the activation of sector number 1 is to be entered
here. The maximum time is 23:59.
- Code P5: The time, in hours and minutes, sector
number 2 has to be activated is to be entered here.
The maximum time is 23:59.
7.4. CHANGE CLOCK TIME (HO)
In this option there is just one section, HO, which
displays the programmer clock time. This time can be
changed with the “+” and “-“ keys. Press the “C” and
“+” keys at the same time to go back to the Main
Menu.
7.5. MANUAL PROGRAMMES (AP)
In this option there is just one section, AP. Use
the “+” and “-“ keys to select the programme number.
Then, press the “C” key to stop the selected
programme if it is working or to start it if it is stopped.
The number of the selected programme goes to 0
waiting for the selection of a new programme.
When a programme is selected, a spot on its left
indicates that the programme is already activated.
If the programme which is to be started lacks any
of the basic parameters to be activated (Time 1 in the
case of a fertilisation, for example), the programme
order of start will not be taken into account and the
programmer does not display a 0 in the number of the
selected programme.
If a programme is activated manually when
another one is already working, the one which is
working is deactivated and the one which was
activated manually starts to work.
The fact of activating a programme manually
does not affect the days that are left for the
programme to be activated.
A spot appears at the left of the displayed time at
the consultation codes C2 and C3, to indicate that the
programme has been activated manually.
Press the “C” and “+” keys at the same time to
go back to the Main Menu.
Manual programmes are not affected by the
“configuration - code 15” value and are activated
independently of the state of input 1.
