APPENDIX 4 - Troubleshooting - continued
I want to make a one
day or short term
change in my setpoint
without changing
everything.
4.2a
You can change the ramp temporarily without changing any settings by using the Ramp
Offset in the Temperature Control Settings menu. Raise or lower the temperature up to
12 degrees Fahrenheit. You must change it back to zero when you want to return to your
normal settings.
I’ve input my ramp
points and setpoints,
but nothing’s working.
4.3a
Is your animal age between ramp points? The controller calculates setpoint temperatures
for in-between ages each day at midnight. In that case, the setpoint temperature won’t
appear to be adjusted until the next day.
4.3b
Check the Temperature Control menu item to ensure the controller isn’t in a “parked”
(OFF) state.
5. Security
Someone has changed
the parameters I set.
5.1
Add a password code for security (see the
Operation Manual
). The controller is not
secure without a password. Those who need to can collect data from the controller but
they will be limited in what they can change.
I forgot my password.
5.2
Call service and ask for a one-day password.
6. Control Pad
I can’t get out of a menu
category.
6.1a
Press CANCEL until you move to the first menu screen.
6.1b
If you press keys and the menu does not change, you are probably still in the pro-
cess of changing information. Finish making your change with PLUS/MINUS. Press
ENTER to confirm. If you do not want the changes you’ve made, press CANCEL to
prevent an accidental change from being entered into the controller. Now you should
be ready to move to another menu screen.
I have no idea where I am
in the menu system.
6.2
Press CANCEL three times. You will always return to the starting menu by using
CANCEL.
I’m unable to change the
group number.
6.3
Use PLUS/MINUS to change a group number. After you press ENTER to change
a parameter, you cannot change the group until you confirm your choice with EN
-
TER or exit with CANCEL.
If you change duty cycles for fogger/mister/cool pad groups or the number of
fans for curtains or inlets, the process is a little different. While on a duty cycle/
fan group menu, PLUS/MINUS changes the cycle/fan groups number rather than
the group number. To change group, scroll with UP to the FULL ON menu. Press
PLUS/MINUS to change the group number. Press DOWN to move into the duty
cycle/fan group menus, and change your cycle parameters for that group.
How can I change from
Spanish to English:
6.4
Press PLUS and MINUS at the same time.
