5. When the field shows the correct planter row spacing, press Enter to
confirm the selection. The implement width automatically calculates as
row spacing is entered.
ROW SETUP (AUTO ASSIGNED)
The console will automatically assign the number of rows defined on the
Planter Setup screen as ON (population rows).
Rows may be configured to ON (population), OFF (split row), FLOW
(blockage), or DISABLED.
• When ON is selected (plant), the row is active and the console
will detect sensors and seed flow.
• When OFF is selected (blank), the row is removed and remaining
rows are re-numbered. This is used for split row systems where every
other row or sets of internal rows are not planting. Their corresponding
row number is ignored, allowing for true planting operations to be
displayed on the monitor.
• When DISABLED is selected (circle with slash), the row input is
ignored. The row number will be displayed. This is used when a row or
sensor is malfunctioning and the operator wants to disable monitoring
on that row.
• When FLOW is selected (funnel), the row will not be included for
population calculations but will be monitored for flow. The flow rows will
be used to detect flow (fertilizer or seeds) and alarm if the flow falls
below two pulses per second.
The Planter Setup screen must include the number of rows and the row
spacing or implement width for the console to properly display population.
Up to three individual configurations can be programmed and supports split
row planters (CONFIGURATION 1 for NORMAL and 2 for SPLIT ROW) and
a separate seeder or drill (CONFIGURATION 3).
