Operation
GRAIN MOISTURE SENSOR TESTING
1. Verify all cables are connected and GT 560 is turned ON.
2. GT 560 GRAIN type should be set to CORN.
3. Test Moisture Sensor operation:
a. If Wi-Fi and smartphone Harvest Tracker App are installed:
i. Verify App is displaying weight on phone or tablet.
ii. Go to Moisture Sensor, so that sensor face is within reach.
iii. On App, access keypad function and type “6802” and press . This displays a rough moisture
value, usually around 11%. This does NOT read actual grain moisture, and is only for system
diagnostics.
iv. Place palm of bare hand on sensor face. Value will increase to approximately 25-35%.
v. Press key on App to exit.
vi. Type in “6803” and press . This displays the temperature of the sensor in degrees F,
which should be within 10 degrees of air temperature.
vii. Press to exit.
viii. Sensor and cabling is operational if these tests are passed.
b. If Wi-Fi is not installed:
i. Find a second person to help you.
ii. Have one person in tractor cab, and the other within reach of the sensor.
iii. On GT 560, type “6802” and press . This displays a rough moisture value, usually around11%.
This does NOT read actual grain moisture, and is only for system diagnostics.
iv. Place palm of bare hand on sensor face. Value will increase to approximately 25-35%.
v. Press on GT 560 to exit.
vi. Type in “6803” and press . This displays the temperature of the sensor in F, which
should be within 10 degrees of air temperature.
vii. Press to exit.
viii. Sensor and cabling are operational if these tests pass.
4. Run a couple of loads to calibrate sensor; refer to Moisture Sensor Calibration on next page
