DOSAGE CURVES
If no growth curves have been installed for the climate control, you can set the day number of the dosing curve
here (the dosing curves are off when the day setting is 000 and the day number will not be incremented
automatically for a new day then).
If the installer has activated the dosing curves, you can use
programmable curves
to have the amount of
water and/or feed per animal increase automatically as the animals grow older. The total amount is calculated
again every day using the curve settings, the current day number and the current number of animals in the
house.

Day number
Feed curve
A curve can consist of a maximum of 15
breakpoints; the day number must be
between 1 and 999. The current day number
is increased automatically at midnight.
In addition to a day number to indicate when
the settings of the breakpoint have to
become active, you also set the daily amount
per animal in the dosing curve.
DATE / TIME
In addition to date and time you can set the “First day of the week”. The “First day of the week” is used to
determine the weekly totals. If, for example, you set “First day of the week” to
Su
(
Sunday
) the week totals will
be calculated on Sunday (a week total is the sum of Sunday, Saturday, Friday etc. to Monday)
Be careful when changing the “Beginning new day” setting; if this time is in a dosing period the
error message “Beginning new day in period” will be generated.

ALARM
For a dosing timer (water or feed) you can set the
minimum amount to be dosed here (as a percentage
of the amount to be dosed). If this percentage is not
reached, a dosing alarm will be generated.
For the nest box timer the nest box status is displayed
in addition to the alarm status.
