Setting Sensitivity of Auto Header Height Control (CLAAS 500 Series)
Setting sensitivity of auto header height control (AHHC) system impacts reaction speed of AHHC on header.
NOTE:
The upper and lower limits of header must be programmed into CLAAS Electronic on-Board Information System
(CEBIS) before adjusting sensitivity of AHHC system. The setting can be adjusted from 0–100%. When sensitivity
is adjusted to 0%, signals from sensing bands have no effect on automatic cutting height adjustment. When
sensitivity is adjusted to 100%, signals from sensing bands have maximum effect on automatic cutting height
adjustment. The recommended starting point is 50%.
