The NIR sensor determines the moisture content of the crop, which can then be used to
determine the DS content. The data can be assigned to the harvested area in the customer
counter. The NIR moisture sensor is only approved for use in grass and maize.
• Before working on stony ground, it may be necessary to remove the NIR sensor, see page
479.
• If the NIR sensor is removed, it must be deactivated. To do this, set the parameter 34019
"Moisture measurement type" to the value "0" (no sensor) in the menu 1-1-25 "Moisture
measurement".

NOTE
The glass cover of the NIR sensor can be damaged by stones in the chopping crops.
In the event of damage due to stone chipping, all entitlements under the warranty are
invalidated!

INFO
