4.3.2. Configuring On/Off prescription
Enter the following data values to configure the On/Off prescription:
l Concentration %: The ratio of the active ingredient in the product
being applied (nitrogen if Nitrogen Content based Mass/Area
selected in output configuration, see page 14).
l Minimum Rate: The minimum rate of the active ingredient that
should be applied relative to the amount of biomass detected.
l Maximum Rate: The maximum rate of the active ingredient that
should be applied relative to the amount of biomass detected.
Note: To set the rate based on the desired amount of total product
(as opposed to active ingredient), set the concentration to 100%.
l Cutoff: The CropSpec value at which the applicator will stop
applying product. When the CropSpec value is equal to or less than
this value, the application rate drops to zero.
l Fallback Rate: The application rate that the software should default
to if unable to obtain a valid reading from either sensor. This can
happen if no biomass is detected.
l Threshold: The CropSpec value where the application rate changes
from maximum to minimum (on/off). When the CropSpec value is
less than the threshold, the application rate will be at the maximum.
