8.2.1 Setting the opening and closing times
To set the times, press the Menu button for around 3 seconds. The option to set the week-
day opening time appears. The opening time is
indicated by the symbol
on the right hand edge of the display. Use the arrow buttons to
select your desired opening time, and confirm the entry using the OK button.
The option to set the weekday closing time then appears. The closing time is indicated by
the symbol
on the right hand edge of the display. Use the arrow buttons to select the
desired closing time, and confirm the entry using the OK button.
The option to set the weekend opening time appears, followed finally by the option to set
the weekend closing time. The times for the weekend can be identified by a dot at the end
of the time.
8.2.2 Automatic return to automatic mode
The next menu item to appear in the display is AC OFF or AC ON. Use the arrow keys
to change the setting. If the function is active (AC ON), then the control unit independently
engages automatic mode in the next day cycle, even if you had interrupted automatic
mode through a manual movement of the door. You can exit the menu by pressing the
Menu button.
8.2.3 Activating automatic mode
To activate the automatic mode, press the Up key when the door is open or the Down key
when the door is closed. Automatic mode is indicated by a small circle at the top of the
display.
8.2.4 Deactivating the timer
If you want to operate the automatic mode using only the light sensor (see section 8.3),
then you can deactivate the timer by pressing the Menu and OK buttons at the same time.
The display will show 't-off'. Repeat this process if you want to reactivate the timer. The
display will then show the current time.
8.3 Using the light sensor
To make automatic opening and closing dependent on the ambient brightness, connect the supplied light sensor to the device, and position the
sensor in a suitable location. Ensure that the sensor is easily able to detect daylight.
The sensor must not be affected by other sources of light (e.g. artificial light from a street lamp or from a house window). Do not position the
sensor on roadways where light from the headlights of passing vehicles may affect the sensor.
Please note that approx. one minute may elapse before the light sensor responds to a change in brightness. This prevents the door opening
unintentionally because of lightning.
If automatic mode is activated, the door is opened and closed when the set brightness level is reached. Even if the light sensor is used,the ope-
ning and closing times of the timer remain active (see section 8.2).
The following applies:
• If the set closing time is reached, the door is always closed even if the light sensor still detects sufficient daylight brightness.
• If the set opening time is reached, the door remains closed until the light sensor detects sufficient daylight brightness.
The sensor's switching threshold can be adjusted via the menu. Here, the controller detects the current brightness level, and opens or closes at
this brightness from now on.
It is recommended that the brightness level is set in the evening. After all chickens have returned to the coop of their own accord, you should wait
about 10 to 15 minutes, and reset the threshold value. To do this, proceed as follows:
