5.5.1.1 Selecting Blend Ingredients

Bin ingredients can be combined to create feed blends. The amount

of each ingredient of a blend is defined according to a user-defined

recipe. In all, the controller can memorize up to 8 different blends.

If the receiving hopper has a mixer, the mixer
must be enabled in the installation setup (s. 5.8.2).

Select "

2a. Blends

" from the main menu. Press the right-arrow

key. Note that this menu is only available if blends have been en-

abled during the installation (s. 5.8.2).

Use the up and down-arrow keys to select the desired blend. Press

the right-arrow key. The proportion of feed taken from each bin is

displayed.

Use the up and down-arrow keys to

select the desired bin then use the ad-

justment buttons to set the desired pro-

portion of this ingredient.

The total percentage of all ingredients of the blend

must give 100%.

2a.1 Blend 1

Bin 1: 25%

Bin 2: 75%

Total: 100%
