XP50 manages the feed control on its own line of feeders by controlling the weight of the line hopper.
The principle of operation is as follows:
● At the Filling time, the Kg of feed from the ration is loaded into the hopper.
● At the Descent time, the feeders are brought down.
● At the Feeders time, feeders are started (which can also work in timing with On and Off times).
● At the Water time, water is distributed (a water-meter can be connected, to record water consumption).
● Up to 8 meals per day can be programmed.
In case of several distribution lines, XP50 can work both as a Master (on the first line) and as a Slave (on the other lines), so that the start times (hopper filling, feeders descent, feeders start, water) are set only on the Master (ensuring the synchronization of the various start), while the feed quantity to be distributed is rationed for each individual distribution line, for details see: Master/slave operation.
