Operating the Controller
“GO” mode.
When the green
“
GO”
is selected the controller goes to the
"Area"
screen and the button
changes immediately to a red
“STOP”
button. All screens in the "GO" mode have
"Running"
on the screen to alert the operator that the machine is operating.
The “Area” screen shows all functions operating in
"Real time”
and the controller shows the
hoppers that are calibrated and operating, the "km/h" indicator and if fitted the "rpm" monitor
for the fan (turbine) speed. The fan rpm monitor will change to red under 400rpm.
If a hopper is selected E.g., “Front” and the crop selected E.g., “Fertilizer” while the machine
is operating and in the ground, a speed indicator will move across the screen between the
hopper select buttons "
<
" and "
>
" and the Kph speed dial.
The weight being applied can be altered while operating by selecting the correct hopper and
pressing either the "+" or "-" buttons or by selecting the "kg/ha" button to make the change.
This change does not happen until the "OK" button is pressed.
The Indicator bars on the "GO" screen show the relevant "RPM" for each hopper.
The indicator bars are green when in their correct operating range, orange at 80% of
available power and red when out of control.
In the "red" condition wrong seeding will occur.
Stopping the Machine
"STOP" mode.
When red
“STOP”
is pressed, the controller goes to the "Stopped" screen and the button
changes immediately to a green “GO” button and stays in “Stopped” mode until the “GO”
button is pressed again.
