Digital Acremeter Operation (S/N YY1735-)
A battery-operated electronic acre counter was supplied
with 3S-4000HD/HDF (s/n YY1735-) drills. The display
module for the system is normally on the front face of the
main tool bar near the left gauge wheel.
The acremeter calculates and displays the field acres
and total acres accumulated.
The meter counts rotations of the main ground drive
shaft after the clutch. Raising the openers suspends
distance measuring.
The counter operates in one of two modes
• In
sleep mode, the display is blank, and the counter
is accumulating acres. Sleep mode is entered if a
button is not pressed for 15 seconds. If a passcode is
set, it must be re-entered to change protected function
values.
• In entry mode, the display is on, and the operator can
enter values. To access entry mode, press the
FUNC button. If you continue to press the FUNC
button, the acre counter cycles through the available
functions. The icons above the digits indicate which
function is selected.
The functions are:
Values are entered by pressing the UP and
DOWN buttons. Holding a button automatically
increments that value. Long holds increment faster
than short holds. Pressing both button simultaneously
is used to reset some values to 0.
Note: Both the acremeter manual 194-209M and this drill
Operator manual include operating instructions for
the meter. The instructions in this (Operator)
manual are the most recent.
