Monitor Setup
Refer to Figure 8
The standard DICKEY-john
®
PM400 system monitors
the following elements of a YP1630F planter:
•
seeds at each row unit seed tube;
•
dry fertilizer at each tower outlet;
•
ground speed; and,
•
fertilizer meter shaft speed.
See “ Seed Monitor Console Installation ” on page 121.
Refer to the DICKEY-john
®
PM400 Console Manual
(11001-1372) for monitor operations.
After installation, and prior to first field use, the monitor
must be setup with the row spacing and speed sensor
constant, as well as your preferences for information
display. Row count is auto-assigned, but any other
DICKEY-john
®
defaults are not likely to be correct for
your planter.
Row spacing data may be found in the Appendix.
For speed setup, Great Plains recommends using the
400-foot (122 m) speed calibration described in the
DICKEY-john
®
manual. Perform the calibration run in
representative field conditions, as soil conditions, surface
looseness and other tillage practices can cause
variations in the effective rolling radius of the ground
drive wheel.
Prior to each planting session, set any desired limits for
speed and population for the current crop.
