Make sure your system is properly calibrated before beginning
to apply product. We also recommend completion of the
Pre-Field System Checkout described on pages 39-40 prior
to beginning any field operations.
Press the ON/OFF button to turn the console on. After
displaying the hours of operation and software version, the
console will start normal operating mode.
The MT-3405F™ II can be operated in Manual (MAN) or
Automatic (AuTO) mode. In either mode, the right-hand
display will always show the Application Rate (except
when in HOlD or when displaying error messages, see
Troubleshooting section starting on page 33). The left hand
display will show data as selected by the rotary switch.
Manual Operation
The manual mode is used when the operator wants to
manually control the servo valve using the “+” and “-” keys,
and thus the application rate. The application rate (gal/acre
or liter/hec) will vary depending on ground speed. use the
AuTO/MAN button to select MANual mode (“MAN” icon will
be displayed).
IN HOLd:
If the console is in HOlD, or if all Boom Valves are
OFF, the “+” and “-” buttons will not control the servo valve
unless the rotary switch is in the VOluME/MINuTE position.
In that position only, the servo valve can be adjusted without
any boom valves on. This can be useful for system pressure
tests, etc.
IN RUN, wITH spEEd sIGNAL:
If the system is in RuN,
with at least one boom valve ON and there is a speed signal,
the “+” and “-” buttons can be used to adjust the servo valve
with the rotary switch in any position except TANK, VOluME,
and AREA and the application rate can be monitored on the
right-hand display.
IN RUN, NO spEEd sIGNAL:
If there is no speed signal,
“no SPEEd” will flash in the right-hand display and the
Application Rate will be invalid. The “+” and “-” buttons will
adjust the servo valve if the rotary switch is in the VOluME/
MINuTE position, and the flow rate (GPM or lPM) can be
monitored.
Turn rotary dial to display desired readout.
