Calibration and Operation
For Example:
U.S. Units. Given a target rate of 75 oz./acre, a target application speed of 11.0 MPH, and a boom width of 85
ft. (1020 in.):
Thus, the desired rate of 75 oz./acre is within the capacity of the 5 - 200 oz./min. pump, but will not be
acceptable for the 1 - 40 oz./min. pump.
Metric Units. Given a target rate of 50 dl/ha, a target application speed of 17.0 km/h, and a boom width of 25
m (2500 cm):
Thus, the desired rate of 50 dl/ha is within the capacity of the 1.5 - 59 dl/min. pump, but will not be acceptable
for the 0.3 - 11.8 oz./min. pump.
PVD Error Cal (Viper Pro and Envizio Pro only)
The PVD (Pump Valve Diagnostic) error cal value is used to set the flow error tolerance of chemical injection
applications. Increase the PVD error cal value to set a tighter tolerance. Set the PVD error cal to zero to turn off
all flow monitor alarms for the injected chemical.
Note: The range for the PVD error cal is 0 through 9. The default value for any Sidekick Pro injection
pump is 6.
FER Cal (SCS 4000/5000 Series only)
The FER (Flow to Encoder Ratio) error cal value is used to set the flow error tolerance of chemical injection
applications. Increase the FER error cal value to set a tighter tolerance. Set the FER error cal to zero to turn off
all flow monitor alarms for the injected chemical.
Note: The range for the FER error cal is 0 through 9. The default value for any Sidekick Pro injection
pump is 6.
