Installation Manual

BinTrac Breeder Control Installation Manual Ver. 1.03 3Part Number MAN-000015

Thank you for purchasing a BinTrac Breeder Control System from Herdstar, LLC.

Installation Overview

This section covers the mounting and wiring of the BinTrac system. Anyone responsible for programming and

operating the BinTrac system should also read the Operator’s Manual.

This symbol means the text has extra importance since it is describing the importance of a feature or

explaining a step to which you should pay close attention to avoid problems, or to which safety is a

concern.

Components

A BinTrac system consists of a number of basic components:

BinTrac Breeder Control

This is the main unit of the BinTrac system. The BinTrac Breeder Control communicates with the Smart Summing Boxes to

Control can Breeder Control up to four feed bins.

Load Cell Bracket

Four or more load cell brackets allow the BinTrac Breeder Control to accurately measure the feed level in your bins.

The Smart Summing Box averages the signals from all brackets to minimize errors that could result from voids (holes)

in the feed.

Smart Summing Box

One Smart Summing Box per bin communicates the current reading on the leg brackets to the BinTrac Breeder

Control.

BinTrac Power Supply

This provides the power for the BinTrac system. The power supply converts the line voltage to low voltage.

BinTrac Remote Display

A BinTrac Remote Display is a standard BinTrac indicator configured as a Remote Display. A hardwire cable must

connect the Remote Display to the BinTrac Breeder Control.

Installation Manual

BinTrac Breeder Control Installation Manual Ver. 1.03 4Part Number MAN-000015

Preparation

Before beginning the installation process you need to make sure that the area surrounding each leg is clear of dirt,

ice, or any other debris that may cause the ‘A’ frame to not sit flat. If this is not done it could cause the bin to lift

unevenly and give a false reading.

Installation

Below is an overview of the two methods of batching. After determining the appropriate configuration, you may

proceed to the next steps of installation. Refer to the Operator’s Manual for further instructions for setting up the

controller for either LOAD or unLOAD operation.

Overview of BinTrac Breeder Control System (Load Batch Method)

BinTrac Breeder Control System allows the

user to select the amount of feed required

for the day. The BinTrac Breeder Control

System controls a conveying system to

deliver feed from the Fill Bin to the Weigh

Bin. The Weigh Bin weighs the feed

delivered and the BinTrac Breeder Control

System stops the delivery when the

required amount of feed has been

delivered to the Weigh Bin. In this

configuration, the system batches into the

weigh bin until the total weight (gross

weight) equals the target batch amount.

Overview of BinTrac Breeder Control System (unLoad Batch Method)

BinTrac Breeder Control System allows the user to

select the target batch amount of feed required for the

day. The BinTrac Breeder Control System will enable

the hopper or feed line fill system allowing the feed

line system to transfer the feed into the house until

the required amount of feed has been delivered. In

this configuration, this system batches and unloads

until the batch target amount is unloaded from the bin.

Installation

Mount the Bracket assembly

1. Remove all bolts connecting the leg to the footpad. Loosen the original

anchor bolt but leave it intact at the bottom of the footpad. The

footpad can and should be removed if it is binding or interfering

with lifting the leg. (Figure 1)

2. Remove the 1/2” bolts from the C-channel adapter of the

bracket assembly and set them aside for now.

3. Adjust the top bolt on the bracket assembly so the C-channel is

approximately 3/4” between the top of the C-channel and the

bracket.

4. Mark the holes of the C-channel on the leg and drill using 1/2” drill

bit. (Figure 2)

5. Put the bolts in from the C-channel side through the leg. Place a

washer and Nylock nut on each bolt; hand-tighten.

6. Position the bracket assembly so that it is 3/8” away from the bin

leg, and the C-channel is centered under the loadcell.

Failure to properly align the bracket may cause the

load cell to fail.

7. Hand-tighten the top bolt on the bracket assembly to make sure the bracket is straight and to keep

it in place.

8. Tighten C-channel bolts to 33 ft-lbs. of torque. Make sure the bracket does not move during

tightening.

Figure 1: Remove bolts from bin leg

IMPORTANT: MOUNT THE BRACKET ASSEMBLY ONE (1) LEG AT A TIME!

DETACHING MORE THAN ONE LEG AT A TIME COULD ALLOW THE BIN TO TIP

OVER! INJURY OR DEATH COULD RESULT!

Figure 2: Mark holes of the C-Channel on the legs

Installation Manual

BinTrac Breeder Control Installation Manual Ver. 1.03 8Part Number MAN-000015

Lift the Bin

9. Place a line using a marker on the top of the bolt.

(Figure 3)

10. Tighten all the lifting bolts 1 or 2 full turns at a time

until each leg is at 8 turns.

11. There must be a ½” (+/- 1/8”)gap underneath each

leg when lifting is complete. (Figure 4)

12. The top of the C-channel MUST NOT be up against

the bracket assembly: a clearance of 1/4” (+/- 1/8”)

must be maintained. (Figure 5)

13. Be sure to check height of each leg and verify the

bracket is not touching the leg.

Anchor the Bin

14. Drill two anchor bolt holes 2 1/4” in. deep in the pad

diagonally opposite of each other. (Figure 6)

When anchoring 15K assemblies or greater you

will use four (4) anchor bolts.

15. Hammer bolts into cement until they are firmly in place.

16. Tighten the nuts of the anchor bolts using a socket or

hammer drill to anchor the bracket assembly. Torque to 55 ft.-lbs.

Repeat Steps 1 –13 for all bin legs before continuing to the next step.

Figure 3: Place a line centered on top of bolt.

Figure 4: Lift until there is a 1/2" (+/- 1/8”) gap.

Figure 6: Drill anchor bolts 2 1/4" deep.

Figure 5: Leave 1/4” (+/- 1/8”) gap between C-channel and bracket.

Wiring the Summing Box

In order to get a reading from these load cells, you need to tie them all together into a summing box. One

Smart Summing Box per bin is required. Refer to Appendix A for more in depth wiring illustrations.

17. Mount the Smart Summing Box (SSB) on the crossbar under the bin near the front using self-

tapping screws where it is easily accessible for maintenance.

18. Run the cable from each load cell over to the summing box.

19. Before plugging the cables in, remove the black plastic lock nut from each cable strain relief.

Remove the red plug from each predrilled hole. Pass the cable through the box and then the nut.

Be sure to have a drip loop outside the SSB.

20. Plug in the load cells starting in the upper left until all load cells are plugged in.

21. Pass the communication cable through the gray

liquid tight strain relief on the right side of the

enclosure.

22. Using an appropriate sized wire nut, connect the

wires according to the chart in Figure 7.

23. Attach the GREEN/YELLOW ground wire to the

bin via one of the screws used to attach the

SSB.

24. Run the communication wire to the next SSB or

to the BinTrac®Breeder Control.

25. Tighten every strain-relief (“dome nuts”) on the box. First tighten the nuts to attach the strain reliefs

to the box. Then tighten the dome nut until the cable cannot be pulled out of the box.

26. Set the bin to A using the dip switches inside the summing box. (Figure 8)

Wiring the Bintrac®Power Supply

27. The Power Supply can be mounted on the outside of the building near an outlet. If the BinTrac

Breeder Control is installed in an office or building walkway, the Power Supply can be installed in

the same area, near an outlet.

28. Mount the Power Supply on the building in a location that allows the cable to be tied to the feed

line, or other structure preventing entanglement by a person walking between the bin and building

or from equipment being moved in the area.

29. Once the cable is routed from the Power Supply to the BinTrac® Breeder Control and has been

tied up out of the way, cut off any excess cable.

Wiring the BinTrac®Breeder Control

30. Locate the terminal block in the BinTrac® Breeder

Control labeled ‘BINS’.

31. Insert the wires into the terminal block where RED is

+12V, GREEN is +SIG, WHITE is –SIG and BLACK is

-12V. (Figure 9)

32. Connect the wires from the BinTrac® power supply to the

terminal block labeled ‘PWR’ where WHITE is +12V and

BLACK is -12V.

33. After wiring the Smart Summing box to the BinTrac Breeder

Control Indicator, you will then wire the Auger Relay to the

BinTrac Breeder Control Indicator as shown below. A voltage suppressor is provided and is to be

connected across the Auger Relay coil. It is highly recommended that an auto/manual override

switch be installed as well. (Reference Figure 10 and Appendix A for additional wiring ).
