7 Alarm functions / messages
Seed hopper level and sowing shaft revolutions can be monitored, on condition that
the seed drill unit is fitted with the corresponding activated monitoring device. (See
sections 5.1.4 and 5.1.5 for information on activating hopper level and sowing shaft
monitoring.)
The monitoring systems are only active when the seed drill unit is in operating position
(with lowered seed drill unit and/or marker arms).
The monitoring systems are not active when the seed drill unit is in transport position
(with raised seed drill unit and/or marker arms).
7.1 Sowing shaft alarm
The sowing shaft monitoring system controls the turning of the sowing shaft. (Please
refer to sect. 5.1.4 for information on how to activate sowing shaft monitoring).
A sensor receives impulses from a transmitting device on the sowing shaft. If 10 seconds
passes without an impulse being received (with the unit in operating mode), visual and
acoustic alarm signals are activated.
Acoustic alarm = intermittent sound
Visual alarm

The alarm can be stopped by pressing one of the green display keys, but will nevertheless
be reactivated if the marker arms are operated or the machine is raised.
In the event of a fault occurring that cannot be dealt with immediately (e.g. a faulty sensor),
it is possible to disable the monitoring system completely as a temporary measure, until
the fault can be rectified. (Please refer to sect. 5.1.4 for details on how to disable sowing
shaft monitoring).
7.2 Hopper level alarm
The hopper level monitoring system controls the amount of seed in the hopper. (Refer
to sect. 5.1.5 for details of how to activate hopper level monitoring).
The level display receives a sensor signal when the quantity drops to a certain level,
activating an acoustic and visual alarm signal.
Acoustic alarm = intermittent sound
Visual alarm
