USING THE PRECHARGE FEATURE
The Precharge feature is typically used in applications that have
significant distance between the storage bulk tank and the
implement row unit where seed placement takes several
seconds due to the travel time of the seed/ fertilizer from the bulk
tank to the ground. When the PreCharge feature is activated,
material dispenses at the rate at which the PreCharge ground
speed is set.
PRECHARGE FEATURES:
Operates until the PreCharge time lapses or the PreCharge
ground speed is exceeded.
Aborts when reducing ground speed to 0.
Displays alarm any time the preset feature is established or
changed and the master/control switch is turned on.
This feature does not work for manual or monitor only materials.
Reference the System Configuration section for control channel
and ground speed setup instructions.
Precharge is enabled at the Material Setup and Speed Setup
screens.
1. Turn the master/control switch on.
2. PreCharge initiates when the Start PreCharge key is
activated and the ground speed is less than the PreCharge
ground speed but greater than 0.
