Select the menu
Management | House data | Change
status
to change the house status to
Empty house
(
Initiate
batch stop
) or
Active house
(
Initiate batch start
)
.
Enter the displayed code to change the house status.
The change takes place immediately when the fourth digit is en-
tered.
Active house
It may be an advantage to change the status to Active house the day before stocking the animals. This way the
controller has time to adapt the climate to the needs of the animals and to feed in the house.
The day number then switches to day 0, and the controller operates in accordance with the automatic settings.
Empty house
The status should not be changed to
Empty house
until the house has been depopulated.
Then the controller disconnects the adjustment and controls according to the in-between function
Empty house
.
This function protects the animals in case a house is set to
Empty house
by mistake.
If the house is to be completely closed, the settings of the in-between function
Empty house
must be reset. See
the section Empty house.
When the house status is changed to
Initiate batch stop
, the controller resets all changes made in curves and
settings.
The function
Change status
can also be added as a card to a page, see the section
information about setting up pages.
