To configure the NUTRI GROUP dispenser, first go to the “Settings” tab.<\/p>\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

Then go to the “Feeding” tab.<\/p>\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

Then go to the “NUTRI GROUP dispenser settings” tab.<\/p>\n\n

In the next step, select the dispenser you want to configure and proceed.<\/p>\n\n

NUTRI GROUP feeding configuration<\/h2>\n\n

All possible settings for the NUTRI GROUP Dispenser are now visible.<\/p>\n\n

Mode of operation<\/h3>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

Maximum single dose<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

To determine the maximum single dose, use the Maximum Single Dose slider [1] to set the desired dose. Maximum single dose is the maximum portion that will be dispensed during single dispensing.<\/p>\n\n

Initiating dose<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

To determine the initiating dose, use the Initiating Dose slider [2] to set the desired dose. The initiating dose is the single portion that will be dispensed once a the start of the time windows according to the set schedule. This portion is designed to stimulate the animals and signal the start of feeding time.<\/p>\n\n

Dispenser mode<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

RFID – in this mode, feed dispensing will be carried out according to the set feeding curve and hourly schedule. In order to start the dispenser, it will be necessary to read the RFID ear tag. At predetermined times, the devices will dispense a scheduled feed ration according to the data read from the RFID ear tag.<\/p>\n\n

EXAMPLE SCENARIO:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Dose release time according to the schedule – from 13:00 to 13:30<\/p>\n\n

Scheduled dose to be released – 2kg<\/p>\n\n

Maximum single dose – 0.5kg<\/p>\n\n

Initiating dose – 0.2kg<\/p>\n\n

Interval time between doses – 30s<\/p>\n\n

At 13:00, an initiation dose (0.2kg) will be issued, then after 30s the scheduled dose can be issued. Reading the RFID ear tag will result in dumping 0.5kg of feed, after 30s it will be possible to read the RFID ear tag again resulting in dumping 0.5kg of feed. This cycle can be repeated until the scheduled dose is dispensed. In the scenario presented, the dispensing of feed will be possible from 13:00 to 13:30.<\/p>\n\n

NOTE!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

– Reading the RFID ear tag during the break between doses will not result in feed spillage.<\/p>\n\n

– Reading an RFID ear tag at unscheduled times will not result in a feed spill.<\/p>\n\n

– The amount of feed issued depends on the reading of the RFID ear tag. This means that it is possible to dispense less than the planned amount of feed (e.g., dispensing 1kg instead of the planned 2kg). In practice, this means dispensing feed according to the needs of the animal, which can individually decide its needs.<\/p>\n\n

SPECIAL CASE:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

If the animal does not eat the scheduled feed at the designated feeding time, it will be possible to eat the resulting excess feed during any subsequent (any) feeding time of the day. In practice, if the farmer planned that by 12:00 the animal should have eaten 4kg of feed, but actually ate 2kg, then at each subsequent (any) scheduled feeding time it will be able to eat a larger ration than planned by no more than the resulting uneaten surplus feed. The total daily feed ration does not change, while the rations provided at feeding times defined in the schedule may be increased by the sum of the currently uneaten feed on a given day.<\/p>\n\n

The purpose of the button on the dispenser<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

To determine the action of the button on the dispenser, select the desired action from the Destination of the button on the dispenser drop-down list [4].<\/p>\n\n

How to measure the amount of feed issued<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Select the method of measurement from the drop-down list [5].<\/p>\n\n

Record<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

To save the mode configuration of the edited dispensers, select the floppy disk symbol [6].<\/p>\n\n

Engine settings<\/h3>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

Minimum operating time<\/strong> [1].<\/p>\n\n

This parameter determines what the minimum dispensing time of the dispenser is.<\/p>\n\n

Interval time between doses<\/strong> [2].<\/p>\n\n

This parameter determines how much time must pass before the next dose is issued.<\/p>\n\n

Time between pulses<\/strong> [3]<\/p>\n\n

This parameter determines how much time must pass between pulses.<\/p>\n\n

Overload time<\/strong> [4]<\/p>\n\n

This parameter determines how much time the motor can operate with current consumption beyond the limit.<\/p>\n\n

To save the data, click the green floppy disk [6].<\/p>\n\n

Temperature<\/h3>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

Minimum temperature alarm<\/strong> [1].<\/p>\n\n

This parameter determines after a reading below which temperature an alarm should be reported. <\/p>\n\n

Maximum temperature alarm [2].<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

This parameter determines after reading above what temperature an alarm should be reported. <\/p>\n\n

To save the data, click the green floppy disk [3].<\/p>\n\n

Performance<\/h3>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

Performance over time<\/strong> [1].<\/p>\n\n

If the method of measuring the amount of feed dispensed is set to time this parameter specifies what is the amount of feed dispensed per minute<\/p>\n\n

Performance in pulses<\/strong> [2].<\/p>\n\n

If the method of measuring the amount of feed dispensed is set to pulse this parameter determines how many pulses are needed to dispense a gram of feed.<\/p>\n\n

To save the data, click the green floppy disk [3].<\/p>\n\n

NRF power<\/h3>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

This parameter determines what the power of the antenna is. You can change its value with the slider [1] and save by clicking the green floppy disk [2].<\/p>\n\n

Water<\/h3>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

Single dose<\/strong> [1].<\/p>\n\n

RFID sensors<\/h3>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

The state of the self-block latching sensor [1] will be set according to the type of sensor connected to the dispenser (Normal Close \/ Normal Open). The maximum latching time after which the alarm is to turn on determines after how many minutes the alarm on the dispenser will turn on.<\/p>\n\n
