1. Introduction
1.1 Brief Description
The
RABE
RDS ”
Artemis II
”
seed drill
control system allows you to adapt your
RABE seed drill flexibly and optimally to
seed and sowing conditions, and to control
seed rates in a precise and versatile
manner.
ARTEMIS is a fully programmable control
system with a job computer
(4/2)
and
power unit
(4/3)
on the seed drill, and with
a removable operating terminal
(fig. 1)
with
a clearly legible graphic display
(1/1)
and
integrated keypad
(1/2)
on the tractor.
Data transfer occurs via a flexible integrated
CAN bus. ARTEMIS has an essentially self-
explanatory error tolerant screen display
(menu control).
This allows control to be mastered easily
even without a manual.
Nevertheless, please read the following
information and explanations carefully.
In this way, you will avoid errors in use
and adjustment.
The operating terminal
(2/1)
has two M8
stay bolts
(2/2)
on the rear, with which the
control unit can be fixed to an adjustable
support in the tractor cab.
Also on the rear of the unit are two 9-pin
RS-232 interfaces
(2/4)
for connecting
additional devices, such as GPS receivers,
external drives, data transfer cables to a PC,
etc.
A short cable equipped with a CA6 socket
(2/6)
is attached to the 50-pin connection
(2/5)
of the operating terminal. From this
cable, a connection can be made to the
computer on the seed drill with the adjacent
CA6 cable
(2/7)
as desired.
This cable also supplies power to the
terminal on the seed drill.
