CONSOLE CALIBRATIONS
A calibration procedure must be completed before operating the console. Calibration of the Console can
be achieved by performing the following calculations. Once these calculations are complete, the
information can be added to the console by following the INITIAL CONSOLE PROGRAMMING procedure.
1. CALCULATING "BOOM CAL"
Calculate the width of each boom in inches [cm] by multiplying the number of tips times the spacing.
Write these boom widths down for future reference when programming the Console. The Console
is capable of controlling up to three (3) booms.

2. CALCULATING "SPEED CAL"
See Appendix 1 for Wheel Drive Speed Sensor installation instructions.
See Appendix 2 for Speedometer Drive Speed Sensor installation instructions.
Initial SPEED CAL is 598 [152]. Complete Steps 1 thru 6 to refine this number after "INITIAL CONSOLE
PROGRAMMING" has been completed.
1) Set POWER switches to ON, all other switches to OFF.
2) Enter "0" in
.
3) Drive 1 mile [1 kilometer]. To achieve the most accurate calibration, accelerate and decelerate
slowly.
CAUTION: Do not use vehicle odometer to determine distance. Use section lines or
highway markers.
4) Read DISTANCE by depressing
. DISTANCE should read a value of approximately 5280
[1000]. If it reads between 5260-5300 [990-1010], the SPEED CAL for the vehicle is 598 [152].
If the DISTANCE display reads any other value, perform the following calculation:
EXAMPLE: Assume DISTANCE reads 5000 [980].
Corrected SPEED CAL =
Old SPEED CAL x 5280
DISTANCE
ENGLISH UNITS: METRIC UNITS:
= 598 x 5280 = 631.48 = [152] x [1000] = [155]
5000 [980]
5) The number to enter for SPEED CAL is 631 [155].
