Alarms
Introduction
All configured sensors and various other operating
conditions are continuously monitored. Alarms fall into
one of the following three categories:
• Sensor alarms are alarms which are generated
when information returned by a sensor exceeds the
appropriate threshold.
•
Communication alarms occur when a sensor
repeatedly does not respond to attempts at
communication.
• System alarms are for various other conditions that
are found to be in fault.
When an alarm condition occurs the monitor will beep
repeatedly and an alarm screen will pop up indicating
the fault condition.
The audio alarm and alarm screen persist until the
alarm condition is fixed or until it is acknowledged by
the operator. Follow the steps on the screen to fix or
acknowledge the alarm.
After acknowledgement, the “Operating Screen” will be
displayed with any unfixed alarms shown in the “active
alarm window”. If there are more than one acknowledged
alarms, they will cycle on the display.
When the alarm condition is corrected, the alarm
notification is removed and ground speed will again be
displayed in bottom window.
Nuisance Shaft Alarm
Low application rates of Canola may cause the seed
shaft to rotate less than 2 rpm.
The low shaft rpm will cause the monitor to give a shaft
alarm, since the shaft is rotating below the defalt alarm
threshold of 2 rpm.
To avoid this nuisance alarm change the seed shaft low
rpm alarm setting to 0.5 rpm.
Note: Change the setting back to 2 rpm when
returning to higher application rates.
Note: To “TURN OFF” any shaft not in use set
pulses to 0. This will eliminate any nuisance
alarms caused by an inactive shaft. Also the
corresponding bin should be “Disabled” to
eliminate any nuisance alarms caused by an
empty bin.
