MACHINE OPERATION KPM II STACK-MODE
(MTR29h)
STEP 1 Press SELECT key once to show one section.
The flashing icon shows the section that is
not selected. The selected section icon is
continuously displayed on the LCD.
EXAMPLE: The system is setup to display
rear section on KPM II Stack-Mode
console and front section on SMM
console. Press SELECT key. The FRONT
icon will be flashing and the REAR section
will be displayed on the bar graph. The
SMM console is only backlit. After 1 minute
the front row icon will stop flashing. The
monitor will stay in this REAR only display
through power down and power up. Each
time the monitor is turned on while in
REAR only mode, the FRONT icon will
flash for 1 minute.
If seed flow is sensed in the FRONT
section while planting, the FRONT icon
will resume flashing.
When the front section is disabled, the
row spacing will automatically double to
maintain the proper implement width in
the monitor. A 23 or 24 row 15"
configuration changes to a 12 row 30"
configuration with a touch of the SELECT
key.
STEP 2 Press SELECT key again to activate both
sections.
For simple applications, where only one section is
programmed, the display will automatically lock on that
section. Pressing the SELECT key will have no affect.
NOTE: When alternating between two sections, the
display will lock on the section containing the first
recognized alarm until the alarm is acknowledged
by pressing the OK key or the alarm condition is
removed.
UPPER LCD FUNCTIONS
The monitor collects data on the planting rates from all
active rows and calculates an average. This average
will determine the 100% mark. Seed rate for each row
is then compared to the average value and the result is
displayed on the bar graph.
With only the KPM II Stack-Mode console programmed
into the system, the information regarding each section
is displayed alternately every 5 seconds. While operating
a system with two sections programmed, one or both
sections may be selected any time. When only one
section is selected, the monitor calculates the average
based on the remaining active rows from that section.
With the SMM console programmed into the system,
two sections are viewed at the same time. If the system
configuration is for four sections, the display will alternate
every 5 seconds between a pair of sections. The select
key will lock the display on rear sections. The SMM
console shows RIGHT in the left/right configuration,
FRONT in the rear/front configuration and FRONT RIGHT/
REAR RIGHT in four sections configuration. The KPM
II Stack-Mode console shows LEFT in the left/right
configuration, REAR in the rear/front configuration and
FRONT LEFT/REAR LEFT in four sections configuration.
