GROWTH CURVES
Several growth curves are available for gradual
automatic adjustment of the climate in the house. A
growth curve can consist of a maximum of 7
breakpoints.
The current setting is determined on the basis of
the growth curve, depending on the current day
number. The poultry computer uses this calculated
setting to control the climate in the house (provided
that the growth curves are
on
).
Growth curves on/off
You can use this setting
to switch
all curves
on or
off simultaneously.
Attention
!
Relative or absolute temperature setting, see page 8
The day numbers in the curve have to be consecutive numbers.
If the day number of the first breakpoint is greater than 1, the setting for the first breakpoint
will be maintained until the preset day number.
If the temperature compensation is active, the calculated house temperature will immediately
be adjusted to the curve setting.
The settings obtained from a growth curve are recalculated
every hour
to achieve a more
gradual development of the setting.
Press function key F3 to display the graph displaying the curve; press function key F3 again
to return to the numerical screen.
: The current curve day number is displayed between brackets behind “Day”.
House temperature
When changing the growth curves of the
house temperature
you should be aware that there may be controls
which control relative to this temperature, see page 8.
Main ventilation
The temperature setting of the main ventilation group is relative to the house temperature setting.
Heating / cooling etc.
The temperature setting is relative to the house temperature if the setting is below 10.0ºC. If a temperature
equal to or higher than 10.0ºC is set, this will be an absolute temperature setting.
Animal weight
At present, the growth curve of the animal weight is only used for the overview.
