Because seeder wheels are loose on the drum, some variation may occur and it may be desirable
to adjust the pulses per mile to fine tune the acre meter reading. For example, if the meter reads
high, increase the number of pulses.
An alternate method based on actual distance travelled may be used as follows:
•
Press and hold the UP and DOWN buttons together until “0000”
appears in the display. The “COUNT” icon will appear. The acre
counter is now counting shaft rotations. Enter the cab and
drive one mile. Press the FUNC button to wake up the acre
counter., The “PULSES” and “COUNT” icons will reappear.
The number displayed is the pulses per mile. Press the FUNC
button to accept the setting. The “COUNT” icon will disappear.
If you could not drive a mile, you can calculate the
pulses per mile in a formula:
pulses per mile=pulse count/distance in miles
Width:
(If a password has been entered, you will not be able to adjust
the width.)
•
Press the FUNC button until the “WIDTH” icon appears in the
display. The number displayed is the width of your implement
in feet.
•
To adjust the width, press the UP or DOWN button.
•
The width can be adjusted from 0 to 99.9 feet, in tenths of a
foot.
Password:
The password function allows you to protect the total acre count, pulses per mile, and width
settings with a password. This stops anyone from accidentally changing those settings. When
the acre counter is shipped, the password is disabled. You can modify the pulses per mile and
implement width at any time.
•
Press the FUNC button until the “PASS” icon appears. The digits will
display the “ENT” or “dIS”.
If the display shows “dIS”:
•
The password is disabled. The total acre count, pulses/mile, width and
password settings can be adjusted using the UP or DOWN button.
The password can also be changed using the UP or DOWN
button.
I
f the display shows “ENT”
•
You must enter your password using the UP or DOWN button.
When your password is displayed, press the FUNC button to test the
password. If the password is correct, you will be able to change the
acre counter settings. The password will be viewable until the acre
counter powers down. When the acre counter is powered up again,
you will have to re-enter the password to change settings.
Changing the Password:
•
Select a new password using the UP or DOWN button. Press the
FUNC button until the word “SEt” appears in the display. Release
the FUNC button. The number in the display is your new pass code.
Make sure you write it down! To disable the password, try setting it
to 0000. Press and hold the FUNC button until the word “dIS”
appears in the display.
•
If the password is forgotten, it can be disabled by removing the batteries.
The password is intended for rental units. It is recommended that a
sealbe affixed to the rear plate of the acre counter to determine if the settings
have been tampered with.
