arrow keys. Press the right-arrow key.
Accessible from the installer mode only (s. 5.8.1).

" menu then press

Use the up and down-arrow keys to
select the desired bin then press the
right-arrow key. The following
parameters are displayed :
Max Fill Time (Empty bin alarm):
This is the maximum allowable time
to fill the feed scale hopper. An alarm
is set off whenever the filling time ex-
ceeds this delay. This type of alarm
usually occurs when a bin is empty.
The maximum fill time can be adjusted
from 0 to 30 minutes.
Re-order point:
This is the bins' minimum allowable amount of feed. An alarm is
set off whenever the amount of feed into a bin decreases below
the re-order point. The Re-order point can be adjusted from 1kg
(or 1lbs) to 2000 tons. The system continues running even though
the re-order point alarm is active. Use the adjustment buttons to
set the re-order point to the desired value.
Alarm if empty:
Select "Yes" if you want an alarm to be set off when the bin is
empty. When this type of alarm is active, the system stops oper-
ating except if a backup bin is selected (see below).
