As soon as the steering system is activated, the system assumes that the implement is in
working position.
"Sensor type" parameter
If a working position sensor is connected to the terminal via connector B, you must tell the terminal
the principle according to which the sensor functions.
Possible values:
▪ "analog"
You are using an analog working position sensor [
56], which measures the height of the hitch
linkage as a percentage.
▪ "digital"
Use this option if the sensor mounted on your equipment is compatible with the Standard ISO
11786. The sensor is connected to the terminal via the signal socket.
▪ "ME-sensor Y"
You are using a working position sensor provided by Müller-Electronik. The sensor is connected
to the terminal.
"Inversion" parameter
As a standard, the terminal assumes that the implement is in working position as soon as the working
position sensor sends a signal. However, if the working position sensor functions inversely, you have
to set it here.
Possible values:
▪ "Yes" - implement is in working position when the sensor is not detecting anything.
▪ "No" - implement is in working position when the sensor is detecting something.
PTO shaft speed
Configuring the PTO (power take-off) rotational speed sensor. It measures the rotational speed of the
PTO.
Possible values:
▪ "deactivated"
No sensor measures the rotational speed of the PTO.
▪ "Revol. sensor - front"
A rotational speed sensor that is fitted onto the front PTO.
▪ "Revol. sensor - rear"
A rotational speed sensor that is fitted onto the rear PTO.
Impulses per revolution
Number of impulses per revolution that are transmitted by the PTO through the selected PTO sensor.
Calibrating the speed sensor
When calibrating the speed sensor using the 328.085ft (100m) method, determine the number of
impulses which the speed sensor encounters over a distance of 328.085ft (100m).
If you know the number of impulses for the speed sensor, you can also input this manually.
You have measured and marked a distance of 100m. The distance must correspond to the field
conditions. You must therefore drive across a meadow or a field.
