Equipment calibration for Field-IQ
Calibrate the equipment for your setup:
l Anhydrous calibration (page 230)
l Air Seeder calibration (page 229)
l Planter calibration (page 232)
l Sprayer calibration (page 236)
l Spreader calibration (page 237)
Air Seeder calibration
WARNING – Moving parts during this operation. Ensure the implement is safe to operate.
To calibrate an air seeder calibrate the implement lift switch, then the modules.
For a spreader or seeder: Minimum and maximum motor RPM are used to keep the motor within
the manufactures recommended operating range. Rawson specs are 150 and 500 RPM.
Implement lift switch calibration
1. At the Field-IQ Calibration screen, select Implement Lift.
2. Raise the implement and then tap Next.
3. Lower the implement and then tap Next.
4. Tap OK to return to the Field-IQ Calibration screen.
Modules calibration
Calibrate the modules to ensure that your system performs at the level you require.
Note – If you have an implement lift switch, calibrate it first.
The Field-system Calibrate option only displays on the Configuration screen if you have at least one
Field-IQ system Rawson control module or Rate control module set up to control the rate.
1.
At the Configuration screen, select Field-IQ and then tap Calibrate.
2.
At the Field-IQ Calibration screen, select the operation listed under the module that you want
to calibrate. The message Not calibrated displays at the end of the modules that need calibration.
Note – Calibration screens will vary slightly if you are using a linear actuator.
