2. Application
The Smart IR Sensor is used as the primary control for a Flex-Flo feed line. It uses “infrared” technology
todetectthepresence of all types ofmashandpelletfeeds. It is designed to be used inplaceofa proximity
switch or drop tube switch and will operate with or without the aid of a power relay. The sensor is installed
underneath a control unit between the powerhead drop (funnel) and the drop tube at the end of a Flex-Flo
feed system.

3. Installation
The sensor is installed underneath a control unit between the powerhead drop (funnel) and the drop tube
at the end of a Flex-Flo feed system. The control unit power head drop funnel must be an FLX-2017
or equivalent with an outlet measuring approximately 3-1/4" O.D. Use two (2) #10 x 3/4" self-drilling
screws (S-8045) (supplied) to fasten the Smart IR Sensor to the powerhead drop funnel and drop tube as
shown in Figure 3A.

4. Basic Operation
The Smart IR Sensor will detect when the last feeder is full and immediately shut the Flex-Flo system off,
the yellow “Product Detected” LED will be lit and the display will read “Full”. When the feed falls away from
the sensor, it will count down a pre-determined delay time and then turn the Flex-Flo system back on.
It also includes a maximum run timer that will shut the system down if the auger runs too long in case of
an empty or bridged feed tank or a feed spill. Alarm contacts are available to provide remote notification
of a maximum run situation.

5. Delay Time
Delay time is the length of time after the IR sensor no longer detects feed, before it turns the Flex-Flo
system back on again. It is used to prevent short-cycling of the Flex-Flo system. Excessive short-cycling
will reduce the life of the motor and/or Flex-Flo system. It can also result in the motor running hot and
continually activating the thermal reset.
The required delay time setting depends on how quickly the animals can empty the feeders once the feed
system is full. Large capacity feeders or younger, smaller animals will allow for longer delay time settings.
Forbestresults,usea slightlylessdelay time settingthanthetime ittakesthe animals to completelyempty
the feeder. Always check a pen where there are the most and largest animals and atthe time of day when
consumption is highest. As the animals get older and larger and consume more feed, decrease the delay
time setting to prevent feeders from going empty.
The range of delay time setting for the Smart IR Sensor is from 0 hours and 0 minutes to 23 hours and
59 minutes.
Check Delay Time Setting
To check the delay time setting, at any time, push and hold the “On Delay Time” button.

Setting/Adjusting the Delay Time
To adjust the delay time setting, at any time, while pushing and holding the “On Delay Time” button, push
either the “arrow up” or “arrow down” button. Each time an “arrow” button is pushed, the time will change
by 1 minute. To make the time scroll faster, continue to hold the “arrow” button down for several seconds.
Figure 5B Adjusting the Delay Time
Delay Time Operation
Once the yellow “Product Detected” indicator light goes off, the delay time will begin to count down from
its maximum setting. During this time, the green “Auger” indicator light will flash. After the delay time
reaches 0.00, the “Auger” indicator light will turn on solid and the Flex-Flo system will start.
Delay Time By-Pass
When the Smart IR Sensor is in delay time, the green “Auger” indicator light will be flashing. It is not
necessary to wait for the delay time to expire before the auger will start-up. To make the auger start
immediately, by-pass the delay time for one cycle only, by pressing and holding the “On Delay Time”
button down for 5 second.
