13.1.8 Using ADC
Setup and Calibration:
There are a few things that must be setup and one calibration that needs to happen before starting to
harvest.
Calibration:
Before harvesting, the front wands need to be calibrated so that the system knows where the “ zero ”
depth is. To calibrate the wands, use the hitch to lift the front of the harvester up into the air so that
the wands are off the ground and are against their stops. Then, using the tractor
’ s VT find the calibra-
tion softkey and select it. Once selected, the softkey will change to a green check mark for three sec-
onds to signify that the calibration was successful. The calibration is now complete. It is good practice
to calibrate the wands every time the system is restarted or if there is ever any wand reading dis-
played on the main page while the wands are up in the air.
Setup:
There are a few items that should be set up before harvesting:
Target Depth— Set an initial target depth for how deep you want the lifter wheels to go into the
ground. After harvesting for a few yards, stop and measure the actual depth the machine is digging
and adjust accordingly. This number can also be changed while harvesting if needed.
Axle Setpoint— Set the height of the rear axles. Typically, this number will be set a 2” in most applica-
tions. For muddier conditions or situations that require more cleaning, a higher setting will be re-
quired. Creating an incline in the cleaning bed of the harvester will cause the beets to remain in the
cleaning bed for a longer period of time.
Joystick Configuration and On/OFF— If you want to use the joystick while harvesting, pick which joy-
stick configuration you want to use from the settings page. The joystick will then have to be enabled
before using the joystick toggle softkey.
Depth Sensitivity— The depth sensitivity is how fast the system will react to depth reading given by the
wands. We suggest setting the depth sensitivity on the setting page to 5 to start with and then ad-
justing to personal preferences or conditions while harvesting to reach a desired machine response.
End Raise On/Off— The end raise function lifts the rear axles all the way up when “ END ROW ” mode is
entered. With the end raise function off, the axle will remain in place at the end of each pass.
