DRIVE TYPE PWM (PULSE WIDTH MODULATION)
A valve, usually hydraulic, which varies the oil flow to a hydraulic
motor proportioned to electric current supplied. This type of valve
consists of a flow cartridge and coil assembly.
INPUT FILTER
An adjustment setting for the amount of filtering applied to the
feedback frequency feedback of the control channel.
IMPORTANT
It is NOT recommended to change the Input Filter. Any
adjustments could result in the channel not operating
properly. If adjustments are made, a valve calibration
must be performed.
SENSOR CONSTANT
Establishes the number of pulses for one revolution of the
metering unit. If a DICKEY-john application rate sensor is used,
the value should be set to 360.
GEAR RATIO
Specifies the actual ratio from the application rate sensor to the
output shaft. This specifies the number of revolutions the
application rate sensor turns in relation to one revolution the final
output shaft turns.
SPREADER CONSTANT
How many pulses the application rate sensor produces per
volume of material discharged.
SEED ROW ASSIGNMENT
Enter the first and last number of seed rows assigned to the
control channel.
NUMBER (#) OF SEED ROWS
Displays the total number of seed rows assigned to the
control channel.
CHANNEL WIDTH
Enter the width of rows assigned to a specific channel. Width
calculation can be determined by number of planter rows
assigned to the channel multiplied by the row spacing.
