5.5.2 Blend Curves
The user can define a blend curve to adjust the blends automatically over a
period of up to 450 days. A curve is defined using up to ten points. Each
point specifies a day number and a blend for that day. Once the points of
the curve are defined, the curve must be activated. The controller will
change the feed blend proportions every day in a linear fashion between
consecutive points of the curve. This ensures a smooth transition between
the blends. When the last point of the curve is reached, the blend selected
for that day is maintained until a new flock starts. The highest possible day
number is 450.
NOTES:
All ten points of the curve must be specified. If ten points are not needed,
repeat the last blend for each unnecessary point or decrease the day num-
ber: if the day number is decreased, the curve remains at the previous
point and ignores all the following points.
