3C7F Grab request not accepted by FG within 5 minutes
Feed Grabber out of operation Solution:
Preventive measure:
The MFR has sent a task to the
Feed Grabber, but the Feed
Grabber did not accept the task
within 5 minutes to execute it.
The Feed Grabber may be out of
operation because it has not
started up (no power) or
autostart has failed. The Feed
Grabber can not start
automatically when the grabber
is closed, this can happen when
the power supply is
unexpectedly taken away from
the Feed Grabber. This can
happen with unauthorised
kitchen access, power failure or
an emergency stop.
Another reason is when you
forget to put the Feed Grabber
back in operation after changing
the priority of feed blocks in the
kitchen menu.
Before resuming the MFR first
make sure the Feed Grabber is in
operation.
Connect the smartphone to the
Feed Grabber, if it is not possible
to log in, it may not have power
yet. Check if the play button on
the kitchen console is still
blinking and if so push it. When
the Feed Grabber can be
accessed, put it in operation.
When the grabber is closed
holding feed (which will have
prevented automatic startup) the
grabber will drop the feed during
the start up to look for the reset
magnets. If you do not want that
in that location first manually
drive the Feed Grabber to the
location where it is convenient to
drop the feed, preferably above
a storage place of the same feed
type.
When the Feed Grabber is back
in operation, connect the
smartphone to the MFR and let it
resume its task. The request for
the Feed Grabber will be sent
again and the Feed Grabber will
immediately execute that task.
It is also possible to change
priorities of storage places from
the PDB user interface and from
T4C. When using that setting in
the Feed Controller, you do not
have to put the Feed Grabber
back in operation after changing
the priorities.
Use the setting Max kitchen
time to receive an alarm when
the kitchen is not put in
operation after filling of the
kitchen.
No communication between
MFR and Feed Grabber
Solution:
Preventive measure:
A reliable bluetooth connection
between MFR and Feed Grabber
is necessary.
Ask you Lely Center to check the
reliability and path of the
bluetooth communication
between the MFR and Feed
Grabber. This can be done with
the Map option in your phone
app (Lely Control), this option
shows how the connection is
made and how strong the signals
are between the nodes.
If necessary consider relocating
antennas or adding nodes to the
network.
