Description
The PF3000 is a universal monitor/controller for crop production that is
GPS compatible. In the cotton harvester it functions as a yield monitor and
accurately measures and records pounds per acre, weight of current load and
volume in bales.
The PF3000 has its own internal memory for recording field and load data.
GPS data, however, is not recorded in the internal memory, and must
be logged to a memory card.
The PF3000 must be setup and calibrated to record accurate information.
Fields and Loads
All the information recorded by the PF3000 must be recorded in a field and
load. The operator must manually select or change the field and load on the
PF3000 during field operation. A load is used to subdivide a field into
smaller sections. The monitor load is not associated with the cotton picker
basket, wagon, or truck load. It is recommended to use different loads for
different hybrids or varieties or field conditions (like a wet hole).
Keypad
The monitor has "soft" keys which do not have labels on the keys to identify
the function of the key. The labels for the keys will appear on the display
screen next to the key. However, there are four major groups of the keys:
arrow keys, display selection keys, menu key, menu selection keys.
