Settings Tab Explanation
Min Depth
The minimum depth for the tile or ditch installation. The
system will not allow the design profile to be any shallower
than the minimum depth, which is shown on the profile as
a red line.
Note –
For ditching applications, this depth is set close to the
surface.
Optimal Depth
The depth to install the tile or ditch. The design will keep
this to the depth where it can. It will move off the optimal
depth to be within the other constraints where it is needed.
Note –
For ditching applications, this depth is set close to the
surface.
Max Depth The maximum depth for the tile or ditch installation. The
system will not allow the design profile to be any deeper
than the maximum depth (shown as a blue line).
Outlet to Optimal The distance it takes to change the depth of the design
from the
Outlet Depth
to the
Optimal Depth
.The tile plow
will level out over a long distance rather than trying to
achieve the depth too quickly at the start of a run.
Min Slope The minimum slope for the tile or ditch installation. The
system will not allow the design to slope to be any less than
the minimum slope.
Outlet Depth
The depth at which the design profile will be at the outlet.
This depth can either be entered or measured. To measure
the depth:
a. Drop the tile plow into the ground so the boot is at the
same height as the main or outlet.
b. Tap
Measure
. The outlet depth is entered by the
system.Also, another point is added to the section line
if you are within 20 m (65 ft) of the end of the surveyed
section line.
The height of the outlet is shown by a yellow tag.
