Set the number of meals remaining in the silos. If the number of
meals available falls below this setting the Low stock alarm is
activated. The Low stock alarm is calculated based upon the
quantity of feed distributed during the last meal time (0 = not
active). This alarm works only if silos have load cells.
Kg of feed which must be downloaded in the time set at Min. feed
flow time. If the entered amount of feed falls below this setting the
Minimum feed flow alarm is activated (0=excluded)
*1 *2
.
In this time the weight decrease in the silos must not be less than the
value set in Minimum feed flow otherwise the Minimum feed flow
alarm is activated. This alarm works only if silos have load cells and
it’s not operational with the volumetric system (0=excluded)
*1 *2
.
This is the delay time of the silo’s auger after a Minimum feed flow
alarm. After this delay the system tries to download the silos again:
after 3 unsuccessful attempts the Minimum feed flow alarm is
activated and the system needs to be reset to start again
*1 *2
.
Maximum Kg of feed unloaded from the silo between two hoppers limit
switch activations. In this way the hopper limit signal checks the
loaded feed does not exceed the required quantity (0= excluded)

.
Minimum water consumption alarm below which the Minimum
water flow alarm starts, calculated in time Water flow time
(0= excluded)
*3
.
This alarm is not operation during the water OFF periods.
Maximum water consumption alarm above which the Maximum water
flow alarm starts, calculated in time Water flow time (0= excl.)
*1 * 3
.
Duration of Water minimum/maximum alarm check (0=
excluded)
*3
.
This is the max allowed delay in minutes to supply water from the
start time. At the start time of water supply the supplied water
value could be already more than the value allowed by the Maximum
water flow so the alarm is delayed by this time.
This is the time duration to check the silo loading signal

.
*1
When any of these alarms is activated, feed or water distribution (depending on the type of alarm)
automatically stop. To re-start the system see Restart feed system par. B.E.
These alarms are automatically reset on next day.
*2
This alarm is operation only if the ‘Hopper max. level sensor’ is connected to Xfarm (see Feeding
config. par. D.C).
*3
During Water flow time the value of distributed water should not be lower than Minimum water flow
and during Maximum water flow check time the value of distributed water should not be exceed than
Maximum water flow otherwise the Water Alarm will be activated (0= alarm disabled).
*4
This alarm is operating only if the ‘Upload silo signal contact’ is connected (see Feeding config. par. D.C).
