Thank you for purchasing a BinTrac Breeder Control from Herdstar, LLC.
Overview
Your BinTrac Breeder Control provides a cost effective way to automatically monitor bin level and batch a programmed
load or unload amount.
Components
A BinTrac Breeder Control consists of four basic components:
BinTrac Breeder Control
This is the main unit of the BinTrac system. The BinTrac Breeder Control communicates
with the Smart Summing Boxes to register the weight of material in the bins. The material
level is computed and displayed on the LED bar graph.
Load Cell Bracket
Four or more loadcell brackets allow the BinTrac to accurately measure the material weight in your bins. The Smart
Summing Box averages the signals from all brackets to minimize errors that could result from voids (holes) in the
material.
Smart Summing Box
A single Smart Summing Box per bin communicates the current reading on the leg brackets to the Bintrac Breeder
Control.
BinTrac Power Supply
This provides the power for the BinTrac Breeder Control. The power supply converts the line voltage to low voltage.
Features
Weight Display
The Bintrac Breeder Control displays the gross weight of the bin and its level.
Batch Run
The Bintrac Breeder Control features a relay to enable a load or unload system for batching a programmed amount.
Fill Events
The Bintrac Breeder Control records the net weight increase of the last four fill events for each enabled bin.
24hr Usage
The Bintrac Breeder Control records the last four operational 24 hour usage amounts.
Remote Display
A Bintrac Breeder Control can be configured as a Remote Display which will display the same updated weight
information from the host BinTrac Indicator.
