CONSOLE
The MT-3405M control panel features a large, easy-to-read
backlit liquid crystal display, exclusive BriteKnob™ dial and
backlit panel for night operation.
POwER SwITCh
This switch controls 12-volt power to the entire system. In
the OFF position, there should be no drain on the vehicle’s
electrical system.
RUN/hOLd SwITCh
Selecting the RUN position will turn on all active boom valves
for AUTO or MANUAL control operation.
(Boom switches
must be in the up (On) position).
Selecting the HOLD position
will shut off all active boom valves.
(Boom switches may
remain in the up (On) position).
BOOM SwITChES
The console accumulates area based on the calibrated
boom widths. While an individual boom is turned OFF, its
respective width is not used in area calculations. If a boom
switch is ON (up), its respective boom shut-off valve should
be on. If a boom switch is OFF (down), its respective boom
shut-off valve should be off. No shut-off valves should be ON
if the Run/Hold switch is in HOLD, or in RUN and AUTO while
speed is zero.
ROTARy dIAL
During normal operation, you can view any one of eight
monitored functions by turning the rotary dial to the
appropriate position.
See illustration 31.
The functions that
are active during normal operation are those closest to
the rotary dial, in the blue and green boxes. The functions
that are active when you are in calibration mode are those
farthest away from the rotary dial, in the boxes with red
outline and white type.
AUTO/MAN BUTTON
This button will switch the control status of the system from
fully automatic to manual control. Each press of the button
will change the status. The display will show “AUTO” when
automatic control mode is active and “MAN” when manual
control mode is active.
CAL BUTTON
This button allows you to enter and exit calibration mode.
Pressing and holding the CAL button for approximately
three seconds will put the console in calibration mode. The
display will read “CAL” and the RED warning light will be
illuminated. Pressing and holding the CAL button again for
approximately three seconds will exit calibration mode and
return the console to normal operating mode. The display
will no longer read “CAL” and the RED warning light will turn
OFF.
Turn rotary dial to display desired readout.
“+” ANd “-” BUTTONS
These buttons are used to enter and adjust calibration values
when calibrating the system. During normal operation, when
automatic (“AUTO”) control mode is active and the rotary dial
is set to APP. RATE, each press of the “+” and/or “-” buttons
will increase and/or decrease the target application rate by
the amount of the calibrated adjust rate.
During normal operation, when manual (“MAN”) control
mode is active and the Run/Hold switch is in the RUN
position, pressing the “+” or “-” button will increase or
decrease the application rate by opening and closing the
servo valve (control valve).
During normal operation, when either automatic or manual
mode is active, the Run/Hold switch is in the HOLD position
and the rotary switch is turned to FLOW RATE, pressing the
“+” or “-” button will increase or decrease the flow rate for
setting the proper agitation flow rate, without having the
boom valves turned on, by opening and closing the servo
valve (control valve).
During normal operation, when either automatic or
manual mode is active, pressing and holding the RESET
(“-”) button will reset the
TOTAL AREA, SUB AREA, dISTANCE
or
TOTAL FLOw
counter
(the rotary dial must be turned to
one of those counters for the reset function to be active).
Please refer to Resetting System Counters for more details.
The reset function is not active when the Run/Hold switch is
in the RUN position or the console is in calibration mode.
