Yara N-Sensor V3.10
Operation Manual
Map:
This button is only available if a prescription map is attached to the task. If
pressed, the map is displayed with the current position of the vehicle and the cur-
rent application rate at that point in the map.
+/-:
This button changes the menu to allow for manual application rate changes in
steps of +10% and –10%. If rates are manually changed, the change factor is dis-
played below the indicator bar.
Marker:
If this button is pressed the menu changes to the marker menu, which allows
to set and delete three markers independently from each other. If markers are set,
the respective area will be marked in the log data output and in the map printout,
respectively. This option may be helpful to identify specific areas within the field
during fertilizer application.
Usually, the system should be activated at the beginning of the field and should con-
tinue to operate throughout the whole field. The
Stop
button is only pressed to pause
operation within the field, i. e. in order to refill fertilizer. In the headlands, the N-Sensor
keeps running. The fertilizer distributor is operated as without the N-Sensor connected,
i. e. it is closed and opened in the headlands as usual.
The continuous recalculation of the average N-Sensor reading can be
stopped at any time within the field. To do so, press
Stop
on the work screen
first, then
Agronomic Calibration
and
Cancel.
(see below).
After that, the reference N-Sensor value will remain unchanged until the agronomic
calibration menu is entered again and until
OK
is pressed again.
When the field is finally completed, press the
Stop
button to deactivate the
system. You may now continue with another task on another field as
described in section 4 or remove the data stick and process the log-file(s).
