Automatic closure of the main valve
BRAVO 180S can automatically switch off the main valve through an external ARAG* navigator: the navigator can autonomously manage valve opening
and closing, thus preventing the overlapping of already-sprayed areas.
To be able to use the automatic closure, connect the navigator to BRAVO 180S and perform the procedure for AUTOMATIC
operation (par. 14.3.1): fur further information, refer to the specific instructions enclosed with the satellite navigator.
WARNING: automatic closure is NOT active during manual operation
.
*: SKIPPER navigator and BRAVO 400S and DELTA80 monitors are enabled for operation
.
