Control Menu
The Control Menu is the place to enter actual operating settings for your poultry house. The
first two menus in the control category are TEMP & TIMER SETTINGS and
TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY.
Temperature and Timer Settings
The TEMP & TIMER SETTINGS menu sets the ON and OFF temperatures for each device,
and also selects the timers that apply to particular devices. The on and off temperatures
normally move with the SET temperature, although you can turn the temperature curve off
under CONTROL MODE. To simplify entering device on and off temperatures, you might
want to make the set temperature some even number, such as 80.0ºF. That way, you simplify
entering tenths of a degree. Following are example TEMP & TIMER SETTINGS based on a
Set Temperature of 75.0ºF.
