FORWARD SPEED SENSOR
The TeeJet 5000 V.4 fertiliser distributor program gives the option of choosing
between 3 different speed sensors (Wheel tractor, Wheel spreader, Radar).
WHEEL TRACTOR:
Speed sensor fitted on the tractor. The sensor can be built into the tractor’s
gearbox or rear axle as standard factory fitted or be retrofit on a wheel or drive
shaft.
NOTE: Wheelslip will give inaccurate speed-readings.
WHEEL SPREADER:
Speed sensor fitted to trailed spreaders. This type of sensor will, as a rule, give a
very accurate speed-reading.
RADAR:
Signal from a radar, fitted on the tractor. This type of sensor gives a very accurate
speed reading on hard surfaces, but a high crop and reflecting surfaces (water)
can give an inaccurate reading.
Please refer to chapter 2 for speed sensor calibration.
IMPLEMENT SENSOR
The implement sensor (area override) is the sensor that starts and stops the area
counter. There are 3 possibilities in this program:
