Crop Sensor Setup

The Crop Sensor Setup screen is where you can adjust how OptRx calculates the nitrogen rate to apply. Here you can also 
select the usage of the Application Rate Table. You can access the Sensor Setup screen by:

OR

OR

÷

NOTE!: You must have a Reference Strip 
loaded for the Algorithm Settings button 
to be active.

Depending on the Sensor Rx that was selected 
when making the Reference Strip you will use 
one of the three Algorithm Setup menus:

Minimum Rate

—This input should be reviewed and set for each application.

Algorithm implication: The Minimum Rate is the amount of nitrogen the operator wants applied to the healthiest 
areas of a field. Keep in mind, OptRx may apply very low amounts or zero N if crop appears healthy at the time of 
application, however the N reserves in the soil may not be adequate to achieve target yield. This ensures some 
amount of N is applied in these healthy areas.
