From 01 January 2014 Gt Parents has been replaced with Qparents
GT Parents performs the feeding control of the Parents during the egg-laying phase.
The main Gt Parents feature is that you can fully set and customize the house working configuration. This is easily done connecting the Gt Parents to a PC thru the Gt Parents Lab software. The Gt Parents can manage up to 40 inputs and 24 outputs.

Gt Parents Lab programming software has a step-by-step procedure with graphics and notes which enables you to define and configure the working parameters of the house.
Once the configuration has been completed, Gt Parents Lab will print out the list of the components along with their wiring diagram.
Each complete house configuration is saved to a “program file” which is stored in the PC and transferred to Gt Parents. Program files can be recalled from Gt Parents and edited at any time.
The program settings (Meal times, Gr/bird meal, etc.) and all the settings which are related to the house functionning are directly set by the Gt Parents.
The Gt Parents programming is assisted by HELP screenshots; while programming only the variables previously set by PC are shown.

Summing up:
- The house configuration (number of silos, number of feeders, number of hoppers etc.) is set by PC and uploaded to Gt Parents via the Gt Parents Lab software.
- The program settings related to the functionning of the system (Meal times, Gr/bird meal, etc.) is done directly on the Gt Parents.
