5.3.2 Calibrating distance sensor (machine )
To set the seed rate calibration value and to record the area culti-
vated or to determine the forward speed, the AMATRON
+
needs
the impulses of the seed drill wheel over a calibration distance of
100 m.
The value Imp./100m is the number of impulses received by the
AMATRON
+
during the measuring travel of the seed drill drive
wheel.
The value Imp./100m must be determined:
 before initial use
 in event of different soils
 in event of deviation between the seed quantity determined in
the calibration test and the seed quantity output in the field
 in event of deviation between the indicated and the actually cul-
tivated area.
The calibration value Imp./100m must not be less than 250, otherwise
AMATRON
+
does not function properly.
There are 2 possibilities for entering Imp./100m:

The value is known and is entered
manually on the AMATRON
+
.

The value is not known and is de-
termined by travelling a calibration distance
of 100 m.
