Brief instructions: Setting the automatic feeder
To use a feeder with SENECT Control units, proceed as follows:
1.
Menu / Output port: Feeder / Operating time
2.
Set Start and stop time: e.g. from 7:00 to 20:00
3.
Set Feeding time:
a.
Interval mode: enter here at what interval and for how long you want to
feed (example: duration: 20 s, interval period: 30 min).
b.
Alternatively: at specific times (use the timer table, for example: 10 am,
20 s duration, 12 am, 30 s duration, etc.)
In the newly published sub-menu Feeder you can use further additional functions and
calibrate the automatic feeder. Calibration is necessary to use additional functions that
relate to the feed quantity (daily feed quantity, daily rate of increase, temperature
correction).
For more information on each of the additional functions, refer to this chapter.
