Brillion Elite Mini Monitor

Brillion Elite Mini Monitor provides information to the
operator and acts as an interface for clutch control. The
display shows seed shaft rotation, low bin levels, acres
seeded, and clutch engagement. The touch screen
allows the operator to engage the clutch.

See "Brillion Elite Mini Monitor" Chapter

for more

information and a detailed guide to the use of your
monitor.

The Brillion Elite Mini Monitor System by Loup
utilizes a MUX communication line. Sensors must be
learned into the Monitor. Location of each pre-learned
Smart Shaft Sensor or Bin Level Sensor is important
for proper Monitor display. Each Sensor utilizes 3
wires (+, -, MuxBus) to connect to the system. The
Sensors do not require specific Harness connection
points. Each Sensor is identified in the Monitor by its
own signal.

WARNING

•

Bin Level Sensors are installed on adjustable
brackets in the outer ends of the Seed Box. When the
sensor is submerged in seed, no alarm will sound. As
the seed level falls below the sensor eye, an alarm will
be indicated on the Brillion Elite Mini Monitor. Raise or
lower the Bin Level Sensor Bracket inside the Seed
Box to the desired seed level.

•

On the Seeder RH Front and Rear Seed Shaft if
equipped with a Rear Seed Box, are Smart Shaft
Sensors. The Smart Shaft Sensors are installed on a
Sensor Mount that is attached to the mounting
hardware of two Seed Cups. The Front Seed Box
High Powered Magnet in the Magnet Wheel
Assembly clamps onto the Seed Shaft. Rear Seed
Box if equipped, the High Powered magnet is placed
on the Seed Shaft and kept in place with a Collar. As
the Seed Shafts rotate the Smart Shaft Sensors
detect the Magnet. When no signal is detected for a
pre-defined seconds, an alarm will be indicated on the
Brillion Elite Mini Monitor.

NOTE

If the Smart Shaft Sensor stall alarm occurs, be aware that
the Seeder has not been planting for the pre-defined time.

•

Brillion Elite Mini Monitor provides users the ability to
toggle the seeder clutch on or off.

•

Brillion Elite Mini Monitor will monitor field and total
acres.

•

Brillion Elite Mini Monitor is operated on a 12-Volt DC
negative ground system. The monitor should be
connected using the existing convenience plug
connection.

•

The Elite Mini Tractor Harness attaches to the Brillion
Elite Mini Monitor and connects to the Seeder 240"
Extension Harness.

See Figure 2-31.

The 6-Pin

Connection may be plugged/unplugged at the front of
the Seeder Hitch when hooking/unhooking the
Seeder. This allows the monitor to stay in the tractor
if so desired.

•

A 4-Pin radar connection is provided as an optional
connection for the speed sensor. The speed signal
may be determined by either the tractor radar or the
speed sensor located on the Seeder.

Console w/Clutch Control -

Optional

Basic Operation:

During normal operation the Console LED for the Seed
Shaft will not be illuminated. The Shaft Sensor will be
activated by a Magnet Wheel installed on the Seed Shaft
being monitored. The Shaft Sensor is a standard Loup
Shaft Sensor, set to 20 second delay timing. When no
signal is detected for 20 seconds by the sensor, the
corresponding LED in the Console will illuminate and the
audible alarm will sound indicating a fault. The alarm will
become silent after 30 seconds and will not sound again
until the Seed Shaft returns to a fully functional condition.

NOTE

If the Shaft Sensor stall alarm occurs, be aware that the
Seeder has not been planting for 20 seconds.

•

The Clutch Master toggle switch allows you to go from

"SEED"

"NO SEED"

operations.
