View the machine reading of the static
pressure sensor. A zero static pressure reading
corresponds to approximately 130. There is a
trimmer on the static pressure card to adjust the
zero point to 130 if needed.
Scales
The scale test menu shows the machine
counts for each attached scale, and the
corresponding weight if the scale has been
calibrated. The pass/fail status of the scale shows
underneath each scale.
Communication
The communication test menu facilitates
testing of communication networks. Follow the
instructions on the screen to test the communication
system. Exit the test menu by pushing Menu again
when finished.
Hardware Checklist
The hardware checklist shows a list of all
plug and play cards installed in the controller. This
should match the actual equipment installed.
Emergency Status
This menu shows the status of any installed
emergency cards. Information shown includes:
1. Emergency Card sensor temperature.
2. Current Set or Target temperature.
3. Backup Battery Level (approximate)
4. Minimum Ventilation Cycle Timer ON time.
5. Minimum Ventilation Cycle Timer OFF time.
Service
Temperature Calibration
The Platinum Plus temperature sensors
typically are within 0.5ºF. Routine calibration in air
will likely result in reduced accuracy. To calibrate a
sensor, select the sensor and adjust the offset using
the left and right arrow keys.
Humidity Calibration
To calibrate humidity sensors, select the
correct sensor and adjust it with the left and right
arrow keys.
Pressure Calibration
Follow the onscreen instructions to
calibrate the zero point of the static pressure sensor.
If calibration is unsuccessful, you can adjust the
trimmer on the static pressure card to approximately
130 machine counts in the pressure test menu.
Scale Calibration
Follow the onscreen instructions to
calibrate the scale of your choice. You can obtain
an inexpensive precision weight to calibrate bird
scales by purchasing a 2 liter soda or similar item at
a grocery store and weighing it at the checkout on
the government certified scales there.
Feed Calibration
Select the Feed Count method, time or
pulse. Enter the quantity per minute or per pulse, as
applicable. You must program and connect a digital
input as a Feed Count input to make use of feed
monitoring.
Water Calibration
Enter the water quantity per pulse of the water
meter. You must program and connect a digital input
as a Water Meter input to make use of water
monitoring.
Save to Plug
You can save your program setting to the
included program plug, and transport it to another
controller for quick programming.
The optional Gold Plug and store 8
programs, and is automatically detected.
Read from Plug
You can read a saved program from a plug
into the controller quickly and more reliably than
keying in all settings by hand. Be sure that the
program you are reading in comes from a controller
with an identical relay layout, or you may program
the relays incorrectly.
The optional Gold Plug stores 8 programs and is
automatically detected.
Modem Setting
You can program a US Robotics external fax
modem connected to the non-priority channel of the
multiplexer with this menu. The modem dip switch
settings (located on the back of the modem) are:
1. down 5. up
2. up 6. up
3. down 7. up
4. up 8. up
Nipple Flushing
To use nipple flushing, program the water
solenoids using these relay codes:
1. 111 Water Main: the control solenoid for the
usual water line.
2. 112 Water ByPass: the control solenoid to
bypass the water pressure regulator.
3. 113 Water Line 1 through 122 Water Line 10:
individual water line solenoids to select the line
to flush.
During normal operation, only relay 111 Water
Main is active. During flushing, relay code 112 is
active together with each of the individual water line
relays in turn.
You can program up to 5 flush times in
sequence. Under Help | Set you can change the line
sequence, and select the particular days of the week
on which to flush.
