•
UC4+ randomly switches between AUTO and MANUAL modes
•
LCD screen display changes erratically
•
UC4+ Spray Height Control system unintentionally goes into
MANUAL mode
Possible Cause(s)
Suggested Solution(s)
a)
Poor cable connection
NOTE:
Connectors used to interface
with sprayer hydraulics are often
located outside and are
susceptible to moisture.
a-1)
Ensure that all cables are correctly
connected according to the UC4+
Installation Manual. The connections
should be tight and free of corrosion.
a-2)
Wiggle cables/wires around while in
AUTO mode. This will detect any
interruptions, as it will change the system
into MANUAL mode.
b)
Defective cable(s)
b)
Follow a-1) and a-2). If the symptom
continues, the cable may need repairing.
c)
Electrical noise on the
sprayer’s D.C. system
c)
Add a power line filter or freewheeling
diodes on one or more of the sprayer’s
solenoid valves.
8.1.4
•
Height increases/decreases unintentionally
Possible Cause(s)
Suggested Solution(s)
a)
Intermittent electrical
noise on the main lift
interface cable(s).
NOTE:
This is similar to when the
operator momentarily presses
main up/down buttons to
increase/decrease the spray
height setpoint (Section 4.2.5).
a-1)
Try installing a power line filter.
a-2)
Diodes may have to be installed in the
main lift lines (these must be sized
appropriately for the sprayer ex. IN5408
for a 3 Amp or smaller coil).
Contact NORAC for more information.
