VOLUME/MINUTE RATE FAULT

Depress

until DATA display flashes. A low limit flow rate may now be entered.

If the actual volume per minute falls below this limit, the Control Valve stops

closing, an alarm sounds, and the display flashes "-LL-". The low limit value

should be determined with all booms ON. This value is automatically proportional

to the percentage of booms that are ON. (i.e. If the entered low limit is 4 and

half the total boom length is shut off, the Console automatically reduces the low

limit to 2).

NOTE: Go to DATA MENU to silence alarm.

5.

VOLUME/AREA RATE ALARM

Console alarm sounds if the application rate is 30% or more away from the

target application rate for more than 5 seconds.

NOTE: Go to DATA MENU to silence alarm.

7.

AUTOMATIC RATE +/-

This feature sets the increment at which flow is increased or decreased

in RATE 1 or RATE 2 operation. Enter rate change value by depressing key

labelled

until DATA display flashes. To enter a value depress

,

then the increment value, and

.

EXAMPLE:

If rate is to change by "1.0":

Enter a value of 1.0 for RATE +/-. When in RATE 1 or RATE 2, each time

the INC/DEC switch is positioned to INC the RATE CAL for that rate will

increase by "1.0". Likewise, when positioned to DEC the RATE CAL will

decrease by "1.0".

6.

LOW TANK FAULT

This feature will sound the alarm when the volume in the tank drops below

an entered value. The alarm will intermittently beep every 15 seconds and

the RATE display will flash "LEVL". The alarm will stop when a value equal

to or greater than the LOW TANK ALARM is entered into VOL/TANK or the booms

are turned OFF. Entering "0" into LOW TANK ALARM disables it.

To select LOW TANK ALARM depress

until DATA display flashes. To enter

value depress

,then LOW TANK ALARM value, and

.

NOTE: Go to DATA MENU to silence alarm.
