The machine may not be moved from its position in the interim.
If there are problems or the operator makes an error, the calibration will be broken off automatically
and the old parameters restored.
WARNING
Electrical shock from contact with high-voltage lines
During calibration, long booms may touch high-voltage lines.
◦
Only calibrate DISTANCE-Control at a safe distance from power lines.
NOTICE
Distortion of counters
If anyone approaches the Usonic sensors during calibration, the values read by the counters will be
distorted.
This is how you calibrate DISTANCE-Control:
Phase 1: Prepare height and slope of the boom for the calibration.
Field sprayer is on an even surface, without being sloped.
The spray liquid lines on both sides of the boom have the same weight. They must either be
empty or completely filled with water.
There are no depressions in the surface below the USonic sensors.
The surface is not too smooth (no asphalt or concrete). The ultrasonic signal is lost on a surface
that is too smooth.
All moving parts of the boom suspension are sufficiently lubricated.
Field sprayer parameters have been correctly entered.
1.
Switch to the "DISTANCE Control" screen:
2.
- Start calibration.
⇨
The calibration process will be started.
3.
Place boom horizontally at approx. 2 m height.
⇨
In the "DISTANCE control" screen appear the distances between the left and right sensors
and the surface.
⇨
Depending on the state of the boom, the following messages may appear:
a) "The boom is horizontal"
or
b) "Boom is not horizontal"
4.
- press, when the message "The boom is horizontal" appears. Both distances are
the same.
⇨
Setting will be saved.
