and all representations and warranties, express or implied, including the implied warranties of

WARNING: Independent alarm installation
Like all mechanical and electronic devices, the Fancom Control Unit may fail. Thus, when the Fancom
Control Unit is controlling the environment for confined livestock, it is highly recommended by Fancom
that an independent alarm system be installed. The Fancom Control Unit does provide a connection
port designated for either make or break contact for the sounding of an alarm condition ( please refer
to installation guide for location ). Failure to comply with the above warning may result in loss of
product and/or profits, for which Fancom is not responsible or liable.

About this manual
This manual aims to supply the user with the information necessary for a

installation manual is also available for the installer.
If you have any questions regarding the computer, please do not hesitate
to contact your Fancom dealer.

Fancom 747 1. Introduction
1
1. Introduction
Fancom has developed the 747 live bird weighing system for continuous
poultry weighing. The weighing system comprises one poultry weighing
computer and from one up to maximum eight electronic weighing scales.
Communication
It is possible to communicate with the 747 computer via a PC. Via
modems even at great distances.
The RS232C serial port (PC-interface) or the Fancom network (FNet) can
be used for communication. If the RS232C port is not used for
communication, it can be used to print overviews.
Using the Fancom F-Central program on the PC the increasing growth
line of the animals can be shown in graph form.
Fancom 747 2. Safety instructions and warnings
2
2. Safety instructions and warnings
Read the safety instructions carefully before operating the system.
The installation of the computer and trouble shooting must be carried out
by an authorized technician/installer, according to the prevailing
standards.
Caution
1. Check your computer regularly for correct functioning. It is an
electronic apparatus and should therefore give an alert during any
system failures. Fancom has done everything electronically possible to
ensure that an alarm is given during any such failure. Unfortunately,
this cannot be 100% guaranteed because not all circumstances are
under Fancom’s control.
2. Fancom takes no responsibility for any possible damage as a result of
incorrect settings and a non- or partially functioning installation.
3. Ask your installer if the alarm contacts of each computer have been
connected to a separate alarm system circuitry.
4. Check the computer regularly for possible damage. Any damage
should directly be reported to your installer.
A damaged computer could be dangerous!
5. Do not use running water (high pressure cleaners) to clean your
computer.
The computer is water resistant, not waterproof!
6. Important
Do not switch off the computer when houses are unoccupied; this is
to protect the computer against condensation.

3. Working
The 747 weighs individual animals, independent of the number of animals
on the scales at any one time. The amount of droppings left on the scales
is ignored. Fig. 1 shows an example of a poultry weighing system:

houses each with a single weighing scale).

The Fancom weighing system consists of a computer and a maximum of
eight weighing scales. The scales are connected to the computer. The
computer can be connected to a PC or a printer.
For example, eight scales can be placed in one flock or one scale in each of
eight individual flocks. The age of the flock can be entered separately for
each house.
The scales are movable; weighing can be carried out at any required
location in the house. The system can be prepared for use quickly and
easily.
The easy to read 4 × 20 character display clearly shows all the
information. Not only in figures, but also with an explanatory text.
The computer collects data of the individual animal weights per day,
reviews overviews up to 365 days back and weight spread up to 16 days
back. The system provides the information on print lists, allowing the
animals’ growth progress to be clearly followed.
