TURNING THE SHEEP AUTO DRAFTER
ON
How to turn the Sheep Auto Drafter on
Before starting the Sheep Auto Drafter ensure that you have the following
correctly attached:
•
power
•
compressed air
•
scales (if weighing animals)
To attach scales:
•
Attach the scale indicator to the scales mount - on the top of the
Control Bridge.
•
Attach the loop back cable which connects the unit and the scale
indicator. This will end in an amphenol socket at the scales end.
Figure 15. The loop back cable.
•
Attach the RS232 cable (comms cable), which connects the unit
electronics to Port 1 on the scale indicator. This cable will transmit
the drafting decision data from the scale indicator to the unit, so that
the drafting gates can be set up.
•
If weighing animals with EID, attach the RS232 cable between the
scale and the RFID reader.
Note:
If you do not wish to weigh animals you need to attach the loop back
cable into the socket on the Control Bridge instead of the scale indicator so
the Sheep Auto Drafter can still operate.
•
RFID reader (if animals have EID)
To attach RFID reader:
•
Attach the RFID reader to the reader mount - on the top of the Control
Bridge.
•
Connect the antenna cable to the RFID reader.
