Depending on the selected feeder functions the displayed dynamic submenu can be:
Daily feed amount
When the feeder is calibrated, you can set here the total amount of feed (weight). Then, the
feeder will automatically set the duration of the feed events (times must be selected in the
time-controlled feeder menu) so, that the defined weight of feed is fed per day. In case you
want to change the feed amount depending on the temperature (temperature correction),
please note that daily feed amount corresponds to the temperature of 16°C.
For example, select Plug 1 / Function: Feeder and under Plug 1 / Time-controlled / Mode:
Interval. Set the interval period to 1 h and the daily feed amount to 100 g. Now, the control
unit calculates, how long the feeder must be activated in each interval. If you set the duration
manually, you can see the feed amount per event below the duration time.
Daily increase
Since fish grow with time and need therefore more feed per day, the feed control can
automatically increase the daily amount of feed. Insert here the increase rate in %.
Environ. based feed.
Under this menu item, several environmental parameter based functions are included:
Low O
2
Protection: In case the oxygen concentration is too low, ongoing feeding can
deteriorate conditions. Therefore, the user can use this function to cancel the feeding, if
the oxygen concentration is below a threshold. Enter in this menu item the concentration
of oxygen below which the feeding is cancelled. Note, that it is necessary that a SENECT
oxygen sensor O2S needs to be connected and that this sensor is selected under “plug”.
Air pressure: Since the barometric pressure can have an effect on feeding, you can select
here under which barometric pressure (measured by the AQUACULTURE|CONTROL
internally) the feeding should be cancelled.
Min. / Max. Temperature: You can also set limits in the temperature, above which (min.
temperature) or below which (max. temperature) feeding is allowed.
