Field-IQ diagnostics 19 Diagnostics
1. Check minimum and maximum flow settings.
2. Check that the flowmeter calibration is close to the number listed on the tag.
If settings check ok:
Check that control valve has been calibrated.
If PWM, check upper PWM limit under advanced parameters. May need to be set to 100%.
Rate fluctuates around target.
1. Check that a drive calibration has been performed.
2. Turn valve on and set rate switch to Manual to lock the valve.
3. If the rate still fluctuates check the flowmeter. (may be a cooler or a tank issue)
If the rate holds in manual, the valve needs to be tuned.
Any Implement Section Control troubleshooting
Section Control does not work.
1. Check that section control has been completely set up.
2. Check that switching type is set up properly. Boom valve Vs. air clutch
3. Check that auxiliary power and auxiliary I/O on the Field-IQ cables are connected. (if present)
If system is set up properly:
1. Run a flow calibration (catch test.) This will force the sections on and confirm that all cabling and
connections are correct.
2. Operate the system in diagnostics. (FM-1000 integrated display only) Arm sections at bottom of
the screen and perform a catch test.
If system works in diagnostics:
1. Check color of sections in the run screen. If sections are red there is an issue.
a. Check that system is not outside a boundary (open a new field to test)
b. Check that system is not over a previously applied area.
c. Check that system has a "fixed" GPS position.
2. If sections are yellow, boom valves should be on but no flow is detected.
3.
Check that the material has not been disabled in the material detail screen.
