844-E Sprayer Control

Calibrate Speed

Speed Sensor Calibration

Default = 

250

NOTE:  During Speed Calibration, the 844 will automatically sense whether a Wheel Speed or Radar Speed Sensor is being used.

While in the Speed Calibration Programming Step, the calibrate speed symbol 

 will be flashing at the top of the display. The programmable 

value (250) will be displayed in the lower right corner of the display.

Proximity/Magnetic Pulses

The speed sensor needs to be calibrated in order to provide the proper speed and area readings. The value for this step is the number of pulses 

generated by the speed sensor in 300 ft / 100 m. This value can be determined by automatic calibration while driving exactly 300 ft /100 m, or by 

entering the number manually.

Automatic Calibration

To automatically calibrate the speed sensor, mark off a distance of exactly 300 ft / 100 m. While still in the speed calibration program step, position 

your sprayer at the beginning of your 300 ft / 100 m course and press the Plus key   and Minus key   simultaneously to clear the contents of 

the display and to activate the auto calibration mode. When the auto calibration mode has been activated, CAL will be displayed at the lower right 

of the display. Next, press the Plus key   once to begin the calibration process. Now drive the course and the 844 will count the pulses as the 

sprayer moves. The speed at which you drive over the course is not important. Stop the sprayer at exactly  

300 ft (100 m in SI mode) and press the Program key   to validate the number in the display. 
The speed sensor is now properly calibrated.

NOTE:  Once the auto calibration mode has been activated, no other functions of the 844 are possible until the console receives speed impulses 

for calibration. To deactivate the auto calibration mode, press the key twice.

 During the automatic calibration step, the 844 automatically senses if a radar ground speed sensor is installed. If you prefer to enter the speed 

value manually, refer to the following instructions.

Manual Calculation:

To manually calculate the proper value for Wheel Speed Sensor pulses, you need to know the circumference of the wheel to which the sensor is 

mounted. It can be measured by marking the tire and measuring the distance covered as that mark makes one full revolution. 
Then use the following formula:

The result can be entered as an alternative to using the automatic calibration method. Use the Plus key   or Minus key   to adjust the value. 

Press the Program key   to validate the value and advance to the next programming step.

Automatic Calibration:

The automatic calibration of a Radar speed sensor is similar to the automatic calibration of a wheel speed sensor. Refer to the directions above. 

When the console has determined that a Radar Speed Sensor is being used, rAd will be displayed in the lower left of the console display.

Manual Calculation:

To manually enter the radar calibration value, first press the Auto/Manual key to put the control console into radar mode. When the Control 

Console is in the manual radar calibration mode, rAd will be displayed in the lower left of the console display. Now use the Plus key   or Minus 

key   to adjust the value. When the correct value has been entered, press the Program key   to validate this value.
