Speed sensor

Fig. 37
In this menu carry out all settings to calculate the speed.
Usually the computer calculates the information concerning the speed thanks to pulses received by the sensor
installed on the wheel.
If a GPS receiver is directly connected to the Bravo 180S, this menu allows selecting the receiver as alternative
source to the wheel sensor, and so to receive in real time the speed data provided by the GPS.
After selecting the menu

Wheel
This parameter is used by the BRAVO 180S computer to calculate the vehicle driving speed and, according to this, the instantaneous application rate.
The wheel constant relates to the type of wheel being used and the number of detection points of the sensor installed on it. BRAVO 180S can save 3 different wheel
constants.
In case of replacement of the wheel featuring the detection points of the speed sensors, the wheel constant can change.
In this case it is necessary to set the parameter again.

distance traveled (inches)
no. of detection points x wheel rpm
<distance traveled>
distance expressed in cm covered by the wheel along measurement travel.
<no. of measurement points>
number of measurement points
(e.g. magnets, bolts, etc.), mounted on wheel.
<no. of wheel revolutions>
number of wheel revolutions required to travel measurement distance.
The wheel constant can be calculated with a good approximation by detecting the distance traveled by the wheel with
the speed sensor.
(The longer the distance traveled, the more accurate wheel constant calculation).
4b
Automatic calc.
BRAVO 180S can automatically calculate the wheel constant using the number of pulses sent by the speed sensor
when driving on a 300 feet (US - US TURF) straight path.
