Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA May 2020 REV A8 20 GROW-DISK™ Feed System 12. ACTUATOR OPEN TIME: Default 00:30 seconds – When ACTUATOR is selected as the feed dump mechanism, the ACTUATOR OPEN TIME is the amount of time the open signal is sent to the actuator.

The Close time is 2X the Open time to ensure the actuator is fully closed and activating the Security switch if so equipped. 13. ARROW – Press RIGHT arrow to advance to next page.

FEED SENSOR TYPE?: Default N OPEN (Normally Open) Feed sensor is “CLOSED” when detecting feed. N CLOSED (Normally Closed) Feed sensor is “OPEN” when detecting feed. Most installations the feed sensor (proximity switch) type is Normally Open. Therefore when the feed sensor detects feed, the STATUS screen item #6 will indicated FEED DETECTED. 2. F.S. IN LAST DROP?: Default “NO” – Feed Sensor location. Selects whether the Feed Sensor (proximity switch) is in the Last Drop or in the chain disk pipe. If “YES”, the FEED CYCLE DELAY timer will start once feed has dropped away from the face of the sensor. If “NO”, the FEED CYCLE will start immediately after the feed cycle completes. 3. TOGGLE FUNCTION?: Default “STOP” – Defines the function of an external toggle switch that may be used to stop a feed system remotely. WARNING: TOGGLE SWITCH DOES NOT DISCONNECT POWER, DO NOT SERVICE EQUIPMENT USING THE TOGGLE SWITCH AS DISCONNECT. ALWAYS DISCONNECT POWER FROM SOURCE BEFORE SERVICING. If the setting is “STOP”, switching off the TOGGLE SWITCH will stop the current feed cycle. Switch the TOGGLE SWITCH back on will enable the controller but will not restart the feed cycle. If the setting is “CONT.” (Continuous) then the TOGGLE switch acts like a pause switch. When the TOGGLE is off the feed cycle will pause at its current status. Once the TOGGLE is on the feed cycle will resume where it left off. 4. FEED DUMP?: Default “NO” – Defines whether a feed dump mechanism is used or not. If “YES” is selected, the manual operation will be visible in the OPERATION MODE screen. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
