System Setup
Fig. 32:
1. Put a person at point A and another at point B.
The people should be on either side of the machine at the starting point.
2. Start spraying and move the machine forward.
3. Continue to move straight forward for approximately 150 ft (45 m).
4. Then while continuing to spray, turn left.
5. Move a short distance and then turn around to go to the previously sprayed area (point A).
When the boom reaches point B, the nozzle valves should start spraying.
When the boom reaches point A, the nozzle valves should stop spraying.
If the people notice that the nozzle valve shutoff time or the spray on time is early or late, adjust
the Look Ahead Time in the SYSTEM SETUP menu. If the shutoff is too late, increase the value.
If the shutoff is too early, decrease the value.
Do the Compass Calibration Procedure
The compass calibration is not required if the Gateway hub is installed in the standard vertical
orientation.
In typical installations, the compass is disabled; however, by selecting Compass (w/Turn) as a
Forward/Reverse Detection Method in the SYSTEM SETUP, the 3-Dimensional compass can be
used for forward/reverse detection and for low-speed turn compensation stability. If this option is
selected, the compass needs to be calibrated so that the machine knows the plane of the earth.
1. Make sure that the machine is facing north.
