MANUAL GROUND SPEED SETUP
NOTE: To verify ground speed
accuracy, check that the mph
line on the Operate screen
matches the tractor
speedometer.
A manual ground speed value (PM250 models) should only be entered
when the ground speed sensor or tractor radar has failed and no ground
speed input is available. This allows for a “limp home” mode to continue
calculating population.
1. From the Operate screen, scroll to the ground speed function line.

4. Use the Left and Right Arrow keys to select a digit to change. Use the
Up and Down Arrow keys to enter a value.
5. Press the Enter key to accept the new number.
Any non-zero value will activate manual ground speed. Set manual ground
speed to zero to disable.
