GreenSeeker diagnostics
The GreenSeeker Diagnostics screen reports on the quantity of sensors detected on system and any
error conditions.
1.
At the Home screen, tap .
2.
At the Configuration screen, tap GreenSeeker and then tap Diagnostics. The GreenSeeker
Diagnostics screen displays.
The hardware and firmware version information at the top of the diagnostics screen indicates the
display and RT200 are communicating.
Incorrect data
The RT200 system monitors the sensors for proper operation, and if a sensor reports incorrect data,
the data is not included in the rate control calculation. Incorrect data can come from mud on the
sensor lenses, sensors viewing concrete, snow, wet asphalt, or other non soil or non plant surface.
Error conditions
Error conditions include sensors disconnected from the CAN bus, or a sensor transmitting invalid
data.
Invalid data could occur if the sensor malfunctions, or more commonly, if it is seeing a target other
than plants and soil.
For example, when setting up the system, the sensors may be pointed into the air or against wet
asphalt. Either of these conditions will likely generate an error code from a sensor.
Error Code Explanation
-1 Red > NIR Red reflectance higher than NIR
-2 BOTH < .01 Both reflectances are below 0.01
-3 RED < .01 Red reflectance below 0.01
-4 NIR < .01 NIR reflectance below 0.01
-5 BOTH > .98 Either reflectance above 0.98
-9 NIR < .015 NIR net reflectance below 0.15
