Using AccuBoom™
Off Pressure
Set the pressure at which the field computer will shut off all AccuBoom controlled sections and disable
automatic section control. All AccuBoom controlled sections will be overridden off until the boom pressure rises
above the set ‘On Pressure’ value. If the boom pressure falls below the off pressure as sections are enabled
when the on pressure setting is reached, reduce the off pressure value to allow the system to being
application.
Note: The ‘On Override’ feature will not override boom sections on if the boom pressure is below the ‘Off
Pressure’ setting.
Turn Off Percent
This value controls the percentage of the boom that must cross a field or spray boundary, or enter a previously
applied area, before AccuBoom will control that boom section. The default value is 100%.
Using the default setting, when 100% of a boom section crosses into a no-spray zone or previously applied
area, AccuBoom will toggle the boom section off.
Note: If the value is set to 0%, the booms will not turn off automatically.
Look Ahead
Set the AccuBoom Look Ahead setting to the number of seconds (determined by speed) the field computer is
allowed to scan in front of the vehicle’s current position for spray zone map features. The On and Off Look
Ahead settings may help to compensate for the time it takes to open or close control valves based upon the
spray zone map.
A non-zero “On” Look Ahead value allows AccuBoom to begin opening control valves while a non-zero “Off”
Look Ahead will allow AccuBoom to begin closing valves.
Note: Setting the Look Ahead values too high may cause the control valves to begin opening or closing
too early. This may cause overlaps, skips or undesirable product application in some areas.
Generally, these settings should not exceed 5 seconds and a value between 1 to 2 seconds will
yield the best results.
Use Look Ahead Distance
Enable the Use Look Ahead Distance option on the AccuBoom Configuration screen to set look-ahead values
in units of distance rather than time.
Note: The vehicle must travel at a constant speed while using the look-ahead distance.
Enable Zero Speed Override Popup
Check the Enable Zero Speed Override Popup option to display the AccuBoom Popup screen during
AccuBoom enabled jobs.
