Abstract: A system for automatically opening a lid to a grain bin with controller in communication with an actuator for receiving a signal containing a data packet to activate the actuator. An RFID is combined to an unloading device for transmitting the data packet to the controller when the RFID is positioned proximate to the controller. The controller compares the device id with a stored identification value and upon a match the controller activates the actuator to open the lid of the grain bin.
