6.6.1.3 Drive Setup
Here you will be able to configure settings related
to the metering drive for each tank that has a
metering auger installed. On the left side of the
window there are several tabs:
1. The first tab will allow you to set if each tank
will have custom settings or you can copy
settings from specified tank, refer to Figure
6.61.
2. Tabs with numbers correspond to a specific
tank (bin) and will have drive settings for that
tank(bin), refer to
Figure 6.62.
Note, that there are some differences in drive
settings between 6000 Series and 7000 Series
air seeders.
Figure 6.61 - Drive Setup
a. Drive Type - select the drive type that is
used on your air seeder:
i. 7000 Series - Proportional Valve
(an electric PWM valve on each
motor controls the ON/OFF and
speed of the metering auger hydraulic
motors).
ii. 6000 Series - Linear Actuator (an
electric actuator that adjusts the
transmission which controls the speed
of the metering auger).
b. Encoder pulses/revolution - select the
number of pulses for each revolution of the
metering auger:
i. 7000 Series - set to 32 (the metering
auger sensor picks up the signal from
the 32 tooth sprocket on the metering
auger shaft).
ii. 6000 Series - set to 16 (the
metering auger sensor picks up the
signal from the 16 tooth sprocket on
the metering auger shaft).
