of alarm usually occurs when a bin is empty. The maximum fill time
can be adjusted from 0 to 30 minutes.
Re-order point:
This is the bins' minimum allowable amount of feed. An alarm is set off
whenever the quantity of feed into a bin decreases below the re-order
point. The Re-order point can be adjusted from 1kg (or 1lbs) to 2000
tons. The system continues running even though the re-order point
alarm is active. Use the adjustment buttons to set the re-order point to
the desired value.
Alarm if empty:
Set to yes if you want an alarm to be set off when the bin is empty.
When this type of alarm is set off, the system stops operating except
