ADJUST SECTION CONTROL
The number of sections is based on the information entered while creating the
implement. The default settings for On Override is five seconds and the default Turn
Off Percent is 95%. To adjust the number of sections, adjust the tractor settings.
NOTE:
The On/Off Override feature allows the operator to override the
automatic section control and force all AccuBoom controlled sections
on for a user defined interval. This feature is useful for re-applying
product to a heavily infested field area or when accelerating from a
complete stop. The time for the override may be modified to match
specific application needs.
Turn Off/On Percent allows the user to define the amount of coverage
tolerated during an application. For applications which require complete
coverage, the coverage percent setting should be set to a higher value
(80% to 100%). When applying products that do not tolerate overlaps,
the percent coverage should be set to a lower value.
On/Off Look Ahead monitors the GPS position and coverage map while
considering the look ahead times to begin controlling sections on or off
before the section crosses spray or no-spray boundaries. Look ahead
times may help compensate for delays in the sprayer system including
the time it takes for boom or control valves to open.
• Adjust the Off Look Ahead to determine how far (in seconds) to turn a section off.
• Adjust the On Look Ahead to determine how far (in seconds) to turn a section on.
NOTE:
Off Look Ahead is the amount of time before entering an already
applied area or a no spray zone that the section will turn off.
On Look Ahead is the amount of time before area that needs to be
applied that a section will turn on.
To adjust the Off Look Ahead, On Look Ahead, On Override, and Turn Off
Percentage:
1. On the CRX Settings page, select Section Control
.
2. Press in the cell to the right of the desired setting.
3. Enter the desired setting.
NOTE:
If using a Raven AccuBoom node, select the Use AccuBoom check box
and the AccuBoom node will control the sections for the implement
selected in the drop-down list.
