Troubleshooting
PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
Moisture reading errors
(high or low)
1. Wire disconnected or bad connection
between star wheels and DCP
1. Reconnect wire.
2. Low power supply to DCP
2. Check voltage at box. (Min of
12 volts required.)
3. Dry hay lower than 8% moisture or
wet hay over 75%.
3. System reads 8-70% moisture.
4. Ground contact with one or both star
wheels and baler mounted processor.
4. Reconnect.
5. Short in wire between star wheels and
DCP.
5. Replace wire.
Moisture readings erratic.
1. Test bales with hand tester to verify
that DCP has more variation than hand
tester.
2. Check all wiring connections for
corrosion or poor contact.
2. Apply dielectric grease to all
connections.
3. Check power supply at tractor.
Voltage should be constant between 12
and 14 volts.
3. Install voltage surge protection
on tractors alternator.
Terminal reads under or over
power.
1. Verify with multi-meter actual voltage.
Voltage range should be between 12-14
volts.
1. Clean connections and make
sure applicator is hooked to
battery.
Bale rate displays zero.
1. Bale rate sensors are reversed.
2. Short in cable or sensor.
4. Sensor too far from starwheel.
1. Replace cable or sensor
2. Adjust gap between prox
sensor and star wheel so it is 1/8-
1/4” away.
Bluetooth Receiver lights will
not illuminate
1. Bluetooth receiver not connected
2. Harness disconnected
3. Low power
1. Check connections and
voltage. Minimum 12.5V
needed.
Red Light
– The Bluetooth receiver has power
Green Light
– When the proper active connection is selected in the Hay
App menu, the green light will indicate connection with the iPad.
Maintenance
Dielectric Grease Connections:
Disconnect all harnesses on the applicator, clean the connections, and
repack with dielectric grease.
Battery Connections:
Follow the batteries safety warnings and clean the battery connections. If the
connections cannot be cleaned, replace harness.
Winter Storage
Disconnect power from the Dual channel Processor (DCP).
Status Alerts
Two Status Alerts will appear on the Auto and Manual mode screens when the Job Records are approaching,
or full of records.
Status Alert “
Bale Records: Less than 1K remaining
”. The system is now approaching the maximum amount
of records that can be saved. When this code appears, download and delete jobs in the Job Records menu.
Follow the instructions in Job Records to accomplish this.
Status Alert “
Bale Records failed
– Memory Full
”. The system will no longer accept any new data until jobs in
the Job Records menu are downloaded and deleted. Follow the instructions in Job Records to accomplish this.
