SKOV A/S reserves the right to change this document and the product herein described without further notice.
In case of doubt, please contact SKOV A/S.
The date of change appears from the front and back pages.
IMPORTANT!
Notes concerning alarm systems
Breakdowns, malfunctions or faulty settings may cause substantial damage and financial losses when regulat-
ing and controlling the climate in a livestock house. It is therefore essential to install a separate, independent
alarm system that monitors the house climate concurrently with the climate and production controller. According
to EU-directive No. 98/58/EU, an alarm system must be installed in all mechanically ventilated houses.
We would like to draw your attention to the fact that the product liability clause of general terms and conditions
of sale and delivery specifies that an alarm system must be installed.
In case of an operating error or inappropriate use, ventilation systems can result in production
losses or cause loss of lives among livestock.
We recommend that ventilation systems should be mounted, operated and serviced only by
trained staff and that a separate emergency opening unit and an alarm system be installed as well
as maintained and tested at regular intervals, according to terms and conditions of sale and deliv-
ery.
Installation, servicing and troubleshooting of all electrical equipment must be carried out by quali-
fied personnel in compliance with the applicable national and international standard EN 60204-1
and any other EU standards that are applicable in Europe.
The installation of a power supply isolator is required for each motor and power supply to facilitate
voltage-free work on the electrical equipment. The power supply isolator is not included.

1 Guidelines
This user manual deals with the daily operation of the house controller. The manual provides the fundamental
knowledge about the functions of the controller that is required to ensure optimum use of it.
Some functions are optional and only used in specific set-ups of the house controller. These func-
tions are shown with an optional icon.
If a function is not used, e.g. 24-hour clock, it is not shown in the user menus of the controller. The manual may
therefore contain sections that are not relevant to the specific setup of your controller. See also the Technical
Manual or, if necessary, contact service or your dealer.
This manual's Operating Instructions consists of a general introduction, which describes briefly how to operate
the house controller.
This is followed by descriptions of the controller functions.

2 Product description
DOL 63X is a series of one- and two-house controllers developed especially for pig houses. The controller se-
ries includes several variants. Each of them meets the different requirements for climate and production control
in connection with the production forms and geographical climatic conditions.
• DOL 634 climate controller
• DOL 635 production controller
DOL 634 is available in the following software variants:
• LPV
• T (Tunnel)
• CT (Combi-Tunnel)
• Basic
• CE (Central exhaust)
• N (Natural ventilation)
DOL 635 is available in the following software variants:
• S (Small)
• L (Large)
DOL 635 includes production functionality such as dry feeding, water, light and 24-hour clock, while DOL 634 in-
cludes the basic production features such as light, water and 24-hour clock.
A combination of climate and production functionality can be achieved by combining DOL 634 and DOL 635
system software. This controller is called DOL 639.
The controller is operated via a large touch display with graphical views of the ventilation status, icons and
curves, among other things. The pages shown in the display may be adapted in accordance with the user re-
quirements so that the most frequently used working procedures are easily accessible.
DOL 63X has two LAN ports for connection to FarmOnline and two USB ports.
DOL 63X CE is used for controlling the pressure in an exhaust duct for a central exhaust ventilation system.It
can also be used in houses where fresh air needs to be heated up or cooled down before it enters the house.

3.2 Daily use
The controller is operated via created pages giving access to settings and information.
We recommend that you create pages with the content you need for daily operation. The pages provide infor-
mation about and status of the operation. Furthermore, the content of the pages works as shortcuts to the set-
tings menu for quick and easy access to changing settings. See also the sections Creating pages [}12] and
Pages [}14].
5 of these pages can be shown as shortcuts at the top of the controller display:
A
APress the shortcuts to switch between the pages.
If a menu has sub-menus it is shown by an arrow pointing right
. Press the line to open sub-menus.
You can take a step back in menus by pressing the button with
the arrow pointing left in the left corner.
In all menus and settings, changes can be canceled by press-
ing Cancel or confirmed by pressing Confirm.

Technical User Guide 11
3.3 Activity log
The controller registers operation, events and alarms with the information of when they took place and when
they were deactivated. It often happens that several alarms follow each other because one defective function
also affects other functions.
For instance, a flap alarm can be followed by a temperature alarm as the controller cannot adjust the tempera-
ture correctly with a defective flap. Thus, the previous alarms give you the possibility of following an alarm
course back in time to detect the error that caused the alarms.
The activity log contains information about alarms such as:
• When the alarm occurred.
• When the alarm ended.
• The value that triggered the alarm.
Other active alarms are marked on the list.
• Hard alarms are marked in red.
• Soft alarms are marked in yellow.
• Deactivated alarms are gray.
The icon for Activity log indicates the number of active alarms, as long as an alarm situation has not ended.
Furthermore, it is displayed when a value/setting was changed and when.

3.4 Selecting default pages
The climate and production controller comes with a number of default pages that vary according to the ventila-
tion system and animal type.
In order to simplify the set-up of controller, you can use default pages.
Remember to adjust the settings to the current conditions.
Press the Overview and select Settings .
Then select General | Manage pages | Default pages | Load
default pages.
Select the collection of pages you want.
3.5 Creating pages
We recommend that you create a number of pages to show exactly the functions and values used in the individ-
ual house and that cover the needs of the daily user.
The pages work as shortcuts to the key values and settings and therefore gives you quick access to reading val-
ues and changing the settings.
The contents of the pages is combined by 2 types of cards with different layout.
Top card: Display of, for example, curves, house view, program overview or daily view at the top of the page.
Key values below the top card.
Cards: Key values in columns with headings.
Press the Overview and select Settings .
Select General and Manage pages.
Press New page.
Name the page.
Select a suitable icon for the page content to easily recognize it.
Select if a shortcut for the page should be shown in the display.
A maximum of 5 shortcuts can be shown here. Pages without
shortcuts are shown when you press the Overview .
Press Go to page to be able to select the content on the page.

You can add up to two key values to a status view. For exam-
ple, you can join:
Temperature + Temperature setpoint
Humidity + Humidity setpoint
Ventilation + Minimum ventilation/animal
Heating + Heat offset
Feed consumption + Add feed
Provided that the functions are supported by the controller.
3.6 Pages
A page is a user-defined display of selected values, graphs and settings. Pages therefore provide quick access
to reading and operation.
We recommend that you create a number of pages to show exactly the functions and values used in the individ-
ual house and that cover the needs of the daily user.
3.6.1 House view
