6.4.12.6 FEEDING (WITHOUT LOADCELL) GRAPHICS (EPC 3&4)
If there is no way to weigh feed then
FEED UNIT PAREMETERS PAGE
UNIT parameter must set to TIME.
In this case EPC calculates the step working time by using
FEED UNIT PAREMETERS PAGE
FEED PER MIN parameter and current step’s “FEED <KG> “ column.
For example;
EPC calculates each step’s working time below;
For F1 step: 30min (150/5)
For F2 step: 40min (200/5)
For F3 step: 20min (100/5)
For F4 step: 20min (100/5)
For F5 step: 40min (200/5)
For example if step F1 would work then its graphics could be below(minutes is converted to seconds);
FEEDING PARAMETERS
F1: 06:00 150
F2: 10:00 200
F3: 12:00 100
F4: 19:00 100
F5: 22:00 200
