Deployment of the Agrocont system
5.1
General
This manual does not cover the installation of the system into a seeder or seeder
fertilizer. Installation into the machine in question should already have been
performed in the factory or by an authorised Tume service agent.
In connection with the installation, parameters depending on the type and model of
the seeder or seeder fertilizer will be entered into the system.
Check the parameters
before you start seeding.

Electrical connection to tractor
For power supply, the system is equipped with a 3-pin DIN-plug. The tractor must
have a compatible socket with DIN-standard dimensions and coupling. The power
supply to the socket must be powerful enough to allow a continuous input of 25 A,
while the voltage must, when the engine of the tractor is running – and even when the
tractor is loaded – remain at least at 12 V, and not higher than 14 V. The power
supply of the socket must be equipped with a fuse (max 30 A).
Programs, setting values and measurement results will remain in the memory of the
Agrocont system even if the power is switched off. Thus, the power supply may be
switched off by disconnecting the plug when the machine is not in use. However,
when continuing to use the machine after the power has been disconnected you should
check the settings for amounts of feeding and the value in the tramline counter. These
settings must be set at the desired values.
