This portion displays the maximum chain pause time. This displays the amount of time the chain may
stay paused before an alarm is triggered, and the buzzer sounds (Default is 80 seconds).
(To change this setting, refer to password section or contact a Spudnik Technician)
Note: If this alarm keeps triggering, the problem may be: 1) Dirty sensor, 2) Shakers are so strong that
they are shaking the seed out of the cup and falling back into the hopper, 3) Driving so slow that the
planter does not have time to plant the seeds that are in the hopper and allow the chain to fill it within 10
seconds (or the current setting), 4)Turning around at the edge of a field may trip the alarm if it takes
longer than 10 seconds (or the current setting).

Feed Chain
This portion of the display indicates the chain maximum on time. This displays how many
seconds the chain may run before an alarm will be triggered (Default is 8 seconds). This
alarm being tripped indicates that there could be a bridge problem, where the potatoes are not
able to fall onto the seed chain, or the hopper could be out of seed.
