Sensitivity:

The sensitivity of the control system can be adjusted using the multi-position rotary switch on 
the console.  This may be used by the operator to adjust for different machine response, or 
crop conditions.  The current sensitivity is shown in the upper right of the display.
High sensitivity will cause the reel to react more quickly and also cause the reel to move a 
greater distance.  If the sensitivity is too high it will cause the reel to move too much or start 
hunting.
Low sensitivity will take greater cutter bar movement to move the reel and will move the reel 
less distance.  If the sensitivity is too low, the reel fingers may be cut off by the knife.
When operating the reel close to the knife, a higher sensitivity will cause the reel to respond 
more quickly to small movements in the knife.  Similarly, when the distance between the reel 
and knife can be set at a higher value, the sensitivity may be reduced, allowing the sensors to 
tolerate greater movement in the knife before responding.

Setting the Automatic Reel Height (Safety Set Point)

The Safety Set Point can be programmed when the control system is in Manual Mode.

To program the Safety Set Point, select Manual 
Mode using the Control Mode button. 

1. Use the combine controls to place the reel at a safe 

distance from the cutter bar, place the header at cutting 
height,   then   press   and   hold   the   Set   button   until   the 
display shows the message, "Set Point Stored." 

2. Select Automatic Mode, using the Control Mode button 

to return to normal operation.

3. Use the combine controls to raise the reel slightly until 

the "Block" light goes out.

4. If   the  Automatic   Reel   Height   control   operation   is   not 

satisfactory,  refer  to Adjusting  Cutter  Bar  Sensors  for 
Reel Height Control.

CAN Communication:

The cab console and the controller use an advanced system called CAN to communicate. 
When CAN communication is operating properly, the “Comm Active” indicator will be lit on the 
cab console.  If the communication link fails, this LED will be extinguished.  Depending on the 
type of failure, a diagnostic message may also be shown on the display.
