CALIBRATION
RATE SENSOR WITH GATE HEIGHT SENSOR ENABLED
NOTE: Complete the following steps to calibrate a granular product with a gate height sensor enabled.
a. Enter a Density Factor value of “60”.
NOTE: If the density value of the product is known, it is recommended to enter the known value as the
Density Factor to provide a closer starting calibration from which the dynamic calibration will begin
adjusting during operation.
b. Based upon the equipment make and model being calibrated, enter:
• Spreader Constant value based on the model that is being setup.
• Pulses/Revolution value.
• Gate Height value.
NOTE: Refer to Reference Chapter 6, Machine Settings, for assistance with initial and default values on
specific make and model equipment.
During initial setup, it is recommended to enter the maximum gate height value. Spreader constant
values shown in Reference Chapter 6, Machine Settings, are based upon max gate height opening.
During normal operation of the system, the system will monitor the gate height and automatically
adjust the spreader constant.
c. Select the Next button in the lower, right corner of the page to proceed.
