15. UPDATE & BACKUP
The PRO-VISION can read and write on
standard USB memory cards which makes
it easy to create a backup of you control-
ler or to upload a new configuration in it.
Note that once your system’s configuration
is saved on a memory card, it can then be
transferred on a home computer, palm pilot
or it can be uploaded in another controller of
the same type.
NO USB memory card is provided with
the system. You can purchase one in
any good electronic store.
Connecting the Memory Card:
Open the
latches and lift the cover. Now, insert the
USB card in the USB connector located on the
electronic board inside the enclosure.

Configuration Files (*.pkg):
The controller
only recognizes the configuration files with
the *.pkg extension. In addition, the files
must be located at the root of the USB mem-
ory card otherwise, the controller will not see
them (it cannot access any sub-directory). In
order to erase or rename a configuration file,
you must access your USB memory card via
a computer (or palm pilot).
Furthermore, when uploading one of these
files in the control, it is possible to upload
only 1 of its 2 components: the software or
the parameters settings. It is thus possible to
upgrade your controller without loosing your
parameter settings for instance.
14.4. Egg Count
If it is used in a breeder facility, the controller
offers an egg count menu. Refer to the Set-up
menu in section 4.4 to select in what type
of facility the controller is located (breeder,
broiler or turkey).
Select:
1.
Main menu
* Start Flock / Eggs

On the left hand side of the screen are today’s
egg count values. Update these values as
required. On the right hand side are yester-
day’s values. These values are displayed for
comparison purposes only, they cannot be
modified.
14.5. Operation Costs & Cur-
rent Consumption
If there are current sensors on some of the
controller outputs, the PRO-VISION can dis-
play the operation cost and amperage draw of
these outputs. Refer to section 4.7 to assign
a current sensor to a relay.
Select:
1.
Main menu
History
Select the
2.
“Actual Current”
tab with the
menu selectors to display the amperage draw
of all the outputs that are using a current sen-
sor.
* This tab is accessible if at least 1 relay uses a
current sensor and if this relay is actually assigned
to an output (see section 4.7).

The total cost recorded since the beginning
of the flock is also displayed. Note that the
operation cost is determined as a function of
the run time of the output and as a function
of the electricity rates. Please refer to the
Set-up menu in section 4.4 to specify the
current electricity rates.
* This tab is accessible if
at least 1 relay uses a current sensor and if the relay
is assigned to an output (see section 4.7).
