What to do when renaming, changing or moving feed pipes between cages

Follow the description for your feeding system.

How integration works

Sketch of feeding machinery and cages(units).

How it works:

  • Bluegrove deals only with cages(units in the sketch).

  • Bluegrove sends a signal to start feeding X kg/minute for cage Y.

  • It does not say which pipe to use.

  • Everything on the barge is handled by the feeding system, not Bluegrove.

When speaking with feeding system, Bluegrove refers to cages by their “External id”.
