Auto/Manual Button
- Manual Mode is the default mode at power up. Manual Mode will pulse
nozzle valves at the duty cycle percentage selected by the increase/decrease buttons. The Manual
Mode is known as the Rate Controller Only Mode used in the event that the SSRS Display fails to
automatically control pressure. It is not necessary to change tips.
Manual Mode
can also be used to close all nozzle valves by toggling down to 10% duty cycle, then
pressing decrease once more. This will close all solenoids and the diagnostic readout will show
“OFF”.
In the Manual Mode the increase/decrease buttons act like an electronic rotary nozzle body with an
“infinite” number of tips that can be selected by the operator.
The Automatic Mode
is the standard operating mode for SharpShooter with Rate Sync. Press the
<
Auto
> mode button, the LED light behind auto/manual button will illuminate. The SSRS Display will
automatically work to maintain an operator set target pressure. It does this by pulsing the nozzle
valves at a duty cycle percentage controlled by the target pressure.
Upon powering up the SharpShooter with Rate Sync system and pressing the <
Auto
> mode button,
the SharpShooter with Rate Sync will begin pulsing at 50% duty cycle. It will remain at 50% until the
run-hold delay time has elapsed. At that time the SSRS Display will begin to adjust the duty cycle to
achieve the set pressure. This allows the flow control system to establish itself on initial power up
before the SSRS Display will regulate the pressure.
