Fertilizing Programs (141):
The “Fertilizer Program” includes the amount for every fertilizer pump
in units set for the whole center. Press “Fert Prgrms” in the “Fertilizing Status – 14” screen to access
the “Fert. Programs – 141” screen.
Screen Explanation:
•
Fert.Prg.Status *:
Information only. The options are:
N.Active, Ready, Fertil.
The following
parameters show definition faults:
Frt.Flt
(fertilizer fault)
, Amount, Pump No., Pmp.Def, ECpH
Df, FrtUnit, W.Mt.No
(water meter Number)
, W.Mt.Df.
(water meter definition).
•
Fert Unit *:
Select one of the following options: For bulk fertilizing select
Litre (Gallon), Min:Sec,
Ltr/Ha
(liter per hectare) (Gallon/Acre) – the multiplication of the quantity by the total areas of the
valves in the program.
.
For proportional fertilization select:
Ltr/M3
(liter per M3) (Gallon/THG),
Ratio
– the fertilizer quantity entered is the total quantity of the fertilizer. The program divides this number
by the number of M3 of water as defined in the “Irrigation Program” to attain the required liter/M3
(Gallon/THG).
•
Fert. Quant.Pmp A-C
(up to 3 parameters)
:
The quantity of fertilizer according to the fertilizer
unit described above.
•
EC/pH Require (
2 parameters)
:
The target for the EC/pH reading that the controller must attain.
•
Auto Correct EC/pH
(2 parameters)
:
These parameters show the average reading of the EC/
pH since the beginning of the “Irrigation Program”. When a new “Irrigation Program” starts these
parameters are the initial requirements before starting corrections.
