Feed
a. Select the active feed bin
for the feed
monitor digital input function.
b. Total Feed Bin 1
: this parameter
maintains the feed count for Silo 1. You
can adjust this parameter for reclaim or
any time you need to correct the
inventory. This parameter adjusts
automatically if load cells are connected
under the silos.
c. Total Feed Bin 2
: same as above, except
for Bin 2.

Emergency Setting
The emergency settings apply to
optional emergency cards. These cards are
battery backed, and operate as standard
switch and relay cards during normal
operation. In the event of an emergency,
they continue to operate according to their
settings, on backup battery if power has
failed. Other emergency settings appear in
the Management Menu if an emergency
card is installed.
a. Differential Above Set for Emergency
:
this parameter sets the temperature above
the Set temperature at which the
emergency card takes over operation of its
equipment. The emergency card has its
own temperature sensor.
b. Differential Below Set for Emergency
:
this parameter sets the temperature below
the Set temperature at which the
emergency card takes over operation of its
equipment.
c. Min Vent On Time Day 1
: the emergency
card is aware of growth day information, and
in the event it takes over operation, it will run
timer fans according to its own minimum
ventilation timer settings. Set the run time for
1 day old birds in this parameter. The card
calculates run times between days 1 and 21
by interpolating.
d. Min Vent Off Time Day 1
: set the off time
for minimum ventilation cycle timer during
emergency for growth day 1.
e. Min Vent On Time Day 21
: set the on time
for minimum ventilation for three week birds.
f. Min Vent Off Time Day 21
:set the off time
for minimum ventilation cycle timer during
emergency for growth day 21.
g. Delay Time to Start Fans (seconds)
: upon
taking on emergency operation, the card waits
this long before running fans. The delay gives
air inlet devices time to preposition.
11. Cool Pad
a. Temperature Band: the on/off differential or
Happy Zone for the cool pad water pump
with respect to temperature.
b. Humidity Band
: the on/off differential or
Happy Zone for the cool pad water pump
with respect to inside humidity.
c. Flush Cool Pad At
: select the time at which
to flush the cool pads. Flushing occurs
without regard to temperature, and is intended
to clean out contaminants from the cool pad.
d. Cool Pad Flush Duration (minutes)
: set
how long the cool pad flushes.
12. Alarm Setting
a. Advanced Alarms (N-0/Y-1): select whether
advanced alarms are enabled or disabled. The
alarms are available in the Management
Menu.

1. Temperature Curve
a. Temperature Curve Offset: Use the hot key
combinations up + enter and down + enter to
adjust the present temperatures above or
below the curve. You can also view and
adjust them in this system parameter.
b. Set Temp Change Reminder (Diff)
: This
sets the point at which the Platinum Plus will
remind you to check your backup thermostats
when temperature settings change.
c. Target Temperature Band
: this parameter
sets the Happy Zone for the ventilation levels.
You set the Target Temperature in Control
Menu | Temperature Curve, but the Platinum
Plus regards any temperature between the
target temperature plus the target temperature
band to be an ideal temperature. The Platinum
plus increases levels when the temperature is
above the Happy Zone, and decreases levels
