Programming and control 37
4. Programming and control
You control the automatic feeder using the hand terminal. The hand terminal is directly connect-
ed to the automatic feeder by a cable. You switch it on and off together with the automatic feed-
er. It remains in operation as long as the automatic feeder is switched on.
Note: After the hand terminal has been switched on, the version of the hand terminal's program
first briefly appears in the display, before the automatic feeder carries out a test routine. Do not
press any buttons on the control panel during these initial routines.
• You monitor and control the automatic feeder (the feed pump, for example) directly via the
keys of the hand terminal.
• You monitor and change the settings of the automatic feeder and the values of calves via
menus. The menus and sub-menus are arranged so that you can find the necessary settings
quickly and easily. With a click of a button, you can access the most important menus, such
as Animal control, Main menu and Manual functions as well as the Animal list.
4.1 Hand terminal
The hand terminal is directly connected to the automatic feeder by a cable. The lighting of the
display switches off when the unit is not used for a long period. This saves power.
