Running the automatic feeder
cause impaired growth and development, increased susceptibility to illness or even the death
of your calves.
The first calibration is performed by your service technician during the initial startup process.
You must manually recalibrate powder and liquid feed and cleaning agents because the actual
quantity will deviate from the set quantity for various reasons, such as fluctuations in water
pressure.
Calibration consists of multiple steps:
•
The volume of liquid components (water and detergent) is determined.
•
The weight of the powder components (milk substitute, additives) is determined.
6.7.2.1 Manually recalibrating liquid and powder components
If your automatic feeder does not have an
automatic calibration scale
, you must provide the
following items for the calibration:
•
1 glass cylinder with ml increments (approximately 1 liter capacity).
•
1 scale (weighing accuracy of 1 g).
•
1 container for collecting milk substitute.
6.7.2.1.1 Recalibrating without a calibration scale
You determine the actual value using a scale and glass cylinder and the program prompts you
to enter this value using the number keys.
Proceed as follows to calibrate the components without a calibration scale:
1. Choose
> Calibration
to go to the
Components
submenu.
2. In
MP
, you recalibrate the milk substitute.
•
Confirm
MP
by choosing
.
•
In
Set quantity
, you can check the amount of milk substitute (MP) to be
dispensed.
•
In
Runtime
, you can check the time in which the automatic feeder will dispense
milk powder.
•
In
Date
, you can check when MP was last recalibrated.
