IMPORTANT: PM200 and PM200E models assume a manual ground
speed and cannot be set, refer to (Figure 14).

TO PERFORM A NEW CALIBRATION:
1. Measure a 400 foot (122 meter) course, clearly marking the start and
finish points.
2. Begin moving the tractor at a speed between 2 and 5 mph (2.3 and 8
Km/h). Allow enough distance before reaching the first marker to
ensure ground speed is at desired speed. Press the Start ( X ) softkey
when the tractor is even with the designated start point.
3. Without slowing down and the tractor even with the designated finish
point, press the Stop ( ) softkey. The new calibration factor will
display. The value will be saved upon screen exit.
IMPORTANT: Pressing the ESC key while the calibration is running
will not save the value.
4. To ensure accuracy, record the number and repeat this process two
additional times. Average the three numbers recorded and manually
enter the new number.
5. Continue pressing the ESC key to return to the main operate screen.
