Glossary of Terms
Master System Settings
Truck ID
– name of the truck in which the system is installed
Units (Metric or English): select the units that the system uses. (All calibrations will be lost when changing from
Metric to English or vice-versa.)
Default Screen Contrast : setting for screen contrast (no units).
PWM Frequency : setting for frequency of PWM signal (in Hz).
Password Manual Mode : choose to select password protection for “Manual” mode or not.
Password No Speedo Mode : choose to select password protection for “no speedo” mode or not.
Password Test Mode: password protection for “Test” mode or not.
Allow Wet Fail Override : setting to “yes” allows operator to over-ride of safety protection of Prewet/Anti-Ice system.
Blast Mode : select between on/off, timed or momentary start operation.
Blast Seconds : amount of time the timed blast runs (1-60 seconds).
Minimum Off-rate Speed : determines the minimum speed (mph) above which the “off rate” alarm will function.
Off Rate Dead band : percentage of “off rate” error allowed prior to triggering warning.
Display Dead band : determines the percent of variation in output that is displayed on the LCD.
High Frequency Speedo : select yes or no depending upon the type of speedometer input.
Number of Liquid Tanks : tells the system how many liquid tanks are present.
Prewet Tank Capacity : capacity of the pre-wet tank.
Anti-Ice Tank Capacity : capacity of anti-ice tank.
IP Address: Unique internet address of this SpreadSmart Rx. Used for
Drive by Download
TM
.
Subnet Mask: Unique subnet mask address of this SpreadSmart Rx. Used for Drive by Download
TM
.
Log Interval
: adjustable setting that determines how often
SpreadSmart Rx
TM
records data to the SD Card.
Auger Settings
Device Present
: select yes or no to tell the controller that an auger is present.
Device Has Sensor : select yes or no to tell the controller that an auger sensor is present.
Minimum Trim PWM : PWM value at which the auger starts moving. Value determined at “trim” step.
Minimum Trim PPM : Pulse per minute value received from sensor running at minimum trim.
Maximum Trim PWM : PWM value when auger hits maximum speed. Value determined at “trim” Maximum Trim
PPM : Pulse per minute value received from sensor when running at maximum trim Default Pulses Per Pound :
Default value for each material choice. Set at 5.0
Default PWM-t Per Pound : Open loop PWM to pounds conversion ratio. Set at 5.0
Auger Units : select granular distribution rate in pounds/mile or pounds/lane-mile.
Auger Advanced Settings -
Lock Strength
: (deleted as of v 3.17). Set at 0 and do not adjust.
Lock Increment: SpreadSmart Rx PWM response increment. Set at 70 (no units). Increasing value causes spreader
to attempt to correct more frequently causing display to be more jumpy.
Update Laps : Feedback adjustment response cycle rate. Allows coil to react. Set at 3 cycles. Increasing value makes
controller respond more slowly, decreasing makes controller respond more rapidly.
Unseat Drive Percent : % of trim signal used to unseat valve at motion startup. Set at 50%
Unseat Time
: Length of time that unseat signal is sent. Set at 10 (1 equals one tenth of second).
Spinner Settings
Device Present
: select yes or no to tell the controller that an spinner is present.
Device Has Sensor : select yes or no to tell the controller that an spinner sensor is present.
Minimum Trim PWM : PWM value where spinner starts spinning. Value determined at “trim” step.
Minimum Trim PPM : Pulse per minute value received from sensor running at minimum trim.
Maximum Trim PWM : PWM value when spinner hits max speed. Value determined at “trim”
Maximum Trim PPM : Pulse per minute value received from sensor when running at maximum trim.
Zero velocity : yes or no tells the controller is zero velocity spinner is present (closed loop system only).
1 Lane Normal PWM : PWM Value when spinner delivers 1-lane width pattern, normally a 12 ft wide pattern. Value
determined at “trim” step and actual 1-lane disbursal width can be adjusted to end-user preference.
1 Lane Normal PPM : Pulse per minute value received from spinner sensor when running at “1 lane wide” trim.
1 Lane Blast PWM : Max trim value with 1 lane width spinner. Value determined at “trim” step.
1 Lane Blast PPM : Pulse per minute value received from spinner sensor when running at maximum (blast) trim.
3 Lane Normal PWM : PWM Value when spinner delivers 3-lane width pattern, normally a 36 ft wide pattern. Value
determined at “trim” step and actual 3-lane disbursal width can be adjusted to end-user preference.
3 Lane Normal PPM : Pulse per minute value received from spinner sensor when running at “3 lane wide” trim.
3 Lane Blast PWM : Max trim value with 3 lane width spinner. Value determined at “trim” step.
3 Lane Blast PPM Pulse per minute value received from spinner sensor (if installed) when running at max (blast) trim
Spinner Stops With Truck : optional selection to allow spinner to run when truck stopped while in auto.
