PRO-SERIES ATHENE - VARIABLE RATE DRILL CONTROL

5.
Logging - Operation
Data is logged to internal (summary) memory and/or external (dynamic) memory depending on the logging
option selected.
(i) APPLY FROM PLAN (Variable-Rate Treatment)
The variable rate instruction is implemented in one of the following setups,
(a) The Pro-Series receives the rate from a treatment plan on the Data Card and controls the application via the
RDS control system. A full application record of the
actual
application is generated and saved on the Data
Card.
(b) The Pro-Series receives the rate from a treatment plan on the RDS Data Card and sends it to a third party
controller (eg. RAVEN), which controls the application via the OEM control system.
(c) The Pro-Series receives the rate from a third-party controller (e.g. JD GREENSTAR) and controls the
application via the RDS control system). The Pro-Series can send back the actual application rate to the other
controller
All setups allow the operator to commence a full VRT application.
For (a) and (b) a full application record of the
actual
application is generated and saved on the Data Card. The
associated work record file can be viewed in the mapping/treatment plan software. Job summary data (iii) is
also appended to the work record file.
(ii) LOG TREATMENT (Dynamic Data Logging)
A full application record is generated, logging rate and other parameters (e.g. "tags") in real time, attributing
this data to a specific location. The associated "Dynamic Logging" file is viewed in the mapping/treatment plan
software. A large amount of data is generated by dynamic logging and therefore must be saved onto the Data
Card. Job summary data (iii) is also appended to the dynamic logging file.
(iii) LOG SUMMARY ONLY (Field Data Logging)
For simple farm record keeping and traceability purposes, you can record a summary of each job or work
session in the internal memory, and subsequently download directly to a PC, to a Data Card, or print to an
RDS ICP In-Cab Printer. The amount of summary data for each job is small, and is saved in the internal
memory. The instrument can store up to 75 individual job summaries.
