Maximum load size is 8,000 pounds of Ration 1
Pens and call weights: Pen 1 2,000
Pen 2 2,000
Pen 3 2,000
Pen 4 3,000
Pen 5 1,000
If you select [Yes], the load would total 8,000 pounds and would feed pens 1, 2, 3 and 1,000
pounds of the call weight for pen 4. The next load that is built would feed the remaining
2,000 pounds.
This setting is typically set at [Yes].
Find Pens to Fit
To set the Find Pens to Fit Selection, from the main menu select
Systems, Defaults, and then the Pen Feeding tab.
This setting is only available if you have selected [No] at the
Optimize Split Pens selection.
This setting determines how the RF DataLink will optimize your
feeding when you elect Not to maximize the load in your feed
mixer. The system can search the pen list to find smaller pens to get the load as close to
the maximum as possible or can be set to stop at the first pen that will exceed the maximum
load size.
Example;
Maximum load size is 8,000 pounds of Ration 1
Pens and call weights:
Pen 1 2,000
Pen 2 2,000
Pen 3 2,000
Pen 4 3,000
Pen 5 1,000
With the option set to Look for smaller Pens that Fit, the load would total 7,000 pounds
and would feed pens 1, 2, 3 and 5.
With the option set to Stop at first pen that is over, the load would total 6,000 pounds and
would feed pens 1, 2 and 3.
